college is soo much better than real work peopel have to be tripping

[Taj Mahal]

College is not only a place to further your education. College acts as a spring board into being on your own and having responsibilities which for many students is something new. I feel sorry for people who can't even adapt to college life because when they get out there in the real grind they learn the hard way.

[Taj Mahal]

Its a great experience, but I agree that some people just aren't built for living alone.

[Taj Mahal]

another thing that bothers me is people not turning off their cell phones during class like Jesus is about to call them and tell them the meaning of life or something.

[chest6]

ah calm down taj

[Taj Mahal]

one time i saw this chicks phone ring. she picks it up. teacher knows its her. then she puts her head down and starts talking on it. i wish people could jus turn off their phones for the hour, hour and 15 they are in class.

[Taj Mahal]

I Cant, Im Pumped!

[Taj Mahal]

i noticed all the school events are tied to free food in some way...is that the same at the colleges u guys go to?

[Taj Mahal]

i hate when people pass out flyers for stupid parties or get togethers...

[Taj Mahal]

sometimes i feel like giving it back to the guy and be like 'im too cool to go, u can have it back'

[Taj Mahal]

[Taj Mahal]

on our campus they have this place where the students can hang out called 'Student Life'. its a building to the side filled with distractions like flat screen TV's, computers, pool tables....

[Taj Mahal]

they might as well call it Student Trap cuz i know so many kids that spend all day in there and forget about classes, they even have kids that dont even go to our school hanging out in there...shame.

[Taj Mahal]

so nobody goes to school here?

[Taj Mahal]

my glass jar had a hell of a weed run

[Taj Mahal]

sometimes i wonder how some of these kids got they license. there are two ways to get into our school and people always try to force they way into this one entrance even tho the other entrance is like 3 mins down the street.

GALESBURG - When Rex McLaren recently won his gold medals at the IPF Masters World and Pan Am Bench Press championships, he noted that the competition was drug tested.

In one of the sports where steroids got their start, athletes using the drugs are still a factor in weight lifting competitions today.

"It was there in the 1960s but what happened in the 1980s it became mainstream," said McLaren, who noted that using steroids is a felony now but wasn't even a misdemeanor back then. "People here could get the drugs.

"Back in late '60s when the Eastern Block countries were doing it a lot, it didn't filter down here. In the 80s, anybody could get it."

McLaren admitted it was hard to resist the temptation and for a time, he tried a drug called cypionate.

"I did it back in 1983. I took a bottle. I took a cc a week.

"My parents knew it. I was 21 and they weren't real happy about it. But back then, it was no big deal and everybody at that level was taking it."

Due to injury, McLaren never competed in a meet that year.

"It got me so strong, I actually got injured," he said. "My muscles got stronger than my tendons could catch up."

McLaren will never forget the feeling of working out while under the drug's influence.

"It was like having jet fuel," he said.

"I can see the temptation at that high level, you're talking about big money," said McLaren.

Although he talks freely about the time he tried cypionate, McLaren doesn't recommend any athletes use drugs.

"High school kids ask me about steroids all the time," he said. "I'll tell them that when you're young, you really won't reap the benefits of them anyway. Your testosterone is exploding.

"Secondly, without the proper training and someone telling you how to take them, you'll set yourself up for injury. Not only will it affect your health, but you'll get injured.

"It's such a temporary deal."

"Now I can walk around with my strength all the time. Back then, it was an up and down thing."

But McLaren's experience left him with a trained eye.

"That's another thing," he said. "I watch Barry Bonds and other guys play baseball, I say, Hey, that guy's juiced."

"Back then a lot of people used it because when you went to a meet, and you trained hard, you knew three guys who were taking it."
