This may be old news, but I thought I'd share any way.

Penny Arcade is offering a $10,000 scholarship for students who plan to work in the video game industry. You need to send in 2 recommendations, a 2 page essay, and stuff that can be easily done by filling out forms (current transcript, enrollment verification, etc.).

The ESA is also offering a few scholarships for women and minorities.

I found out about both of these from gamingangel over at the girl_gamers community on LJ.

I've been working on my essay for Penny Arcade since Saturday and I should have finished it by now, but I keep getting distracted (this post is a distraction). My games need attention! :(

This is my gaming setup in my college dorm.


Yes, my computer monitor is bigger than my TV.


PS2, Xbox 360, TV, and girl stuff. I also have a DS, but I forgot to take it out of my bag for the picture.


My sexy Shuttle! System specs are AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+ (2.8 GHz), 2 GB RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS.
