Hi folks,

Looks like a nice thread. I just figured I would drop in and say hi since I'm a college student (though hopefully not for much longer) and see what the good word is.

 

[SCblondetiger]

hi bored in boston! Welcome to the thread...make yourself at home we should be back and up to a better runnign once everyone gets back into the swing of school after the break...what's your major?

 

[SexGuyAZ]

my aren't we a cocky one?

j.k

Yes but only in certain venues

 

[BoredInBoston12]

My major is good 'ol English, with a concentration in Technical Writing.

And before you ask, no, it's not really that boring

Now for getting back into the swing of school, I myself can happily wait.

 

[SCblondetiger]

494

oh really and what venues are those?

 

[SCblondetiger]

Bored inBoston12- you are now known as BIB or just BB pick one.. anyways while I have your attention... I don't think it's boring...I love words....but what exactly is techincal writing?

 

[SexGuyAZ]

Re: 494

Money!

 

[BoredInBoston12]

Hmm, Bib, or BB?

I think I'll go with BB. Bib doesn't sound like my style.

Technical writing is simply writing technically. Ok, ok, that was a crappy way to explain it, I know.

Broadly, technical writing is writing pretty much anything and everything that isn't fiction or personal.

Some examples: Instruction manuals, memos, product documentation, marketing writing, procedural descriptions, proposals, grant writing, specialty editing, and much more.

I figure it's a good way to make a living while I do more exciting stuff in my spare time.

Thanks SC!

i didn't bring my comp home because there would have been no place to plug it in...i don't have a bedroom at home anymore...my dad gave it away to one of my stepsisters. i had to bunk in the spare bed in one of my stepbrothers' rooms. (large family)

but wory not! i did have an internet connection...that topped out at 28k...*sigh* how i missed thee, Oh T1 line...

but while at home i couldn't update lit because my dad had the ISP block porn sites...

and when i was at my aunt's i didn't update because i didn't want to have to explain things should someone walk in while i was here.

 

[armyjim_2000]

hi folks....

This R/L thing really sucks....but I am back now and the holidays are FINALLY over! Tomorrow I go back to my lil' CC on the sea, to fill my head with knowledge....damn I missed it!

Welcome to all the new faces!

 

[armyjim_2000]

Since nobody's home...

or lost under boxes in their dorms, I'll mosey on along...I shall return later today to check in though!

Hi

Hey everyone,

Just returned to the boards after a long time and found this thread. I'm a freshman at Boston College, just getting used this whole college thing...it's strange to be home for three weeks and then have to go back - just as I'm getting used to being back home, I'll be on my way back to BC.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi to everyone...hope you are all having a lovely winter break

Re: Hi

...just getting used this whole college thing...it's strange to be home for three weeks and then have to go back - just as I'm getting used to being back home, I'll be on my way back to BC.

I feel the exact same way. Now that I'm back at home in my big bed with a big TV and cooked food I don't want to go back .

I guess I have too though

P.S. Welcome to the thread, and welcome back all the peoples coming back.

 

[ff12345]

Welcome all

See I go to work and ya'll just come out of the cracks and fill up a page for me to go through. Welcome to the new faces and welcome back to the ones that I have not had the pleasure of meeting yet!

SCBT-you are just on a nickname shortening role.........you go girl!!!

BTW I'm one of those not in college anymore but fit the age bracket, majored in Criminal Justice and minored in History.

 

[corbetphantom]
