So, I'm a college student. I have been attending my university since graduating from my high school in '04. I am still not done, and while I fit right in with the statistics, I'm tired. I took a couple of semesters off because I didn't know what I wanted to do. I went in intending a major of Mass Comm because I was editor-in-chief of my DVD yearbook and really wanted to continue down the path of journalism, with a focus on print journalism (magazine pref). I love writing, and I'd like to think I do it well! However, after the first semester I started thinking about the realities of pursuing a journalism career in S. Fl and realized that I was destined to work the obitz section of "El Herald" for the first couple of years of my career, at best, and pour coffee for a boss named Carlos. It didn't seem like a pretty picture. Although I never researched it, I assumed that there weren't any magazines in S. Fl that I could write for, and decided to change majors. I first switched to Elem Edu. I thought, hey, I like kids...why not? But I quickly learned that those classes are not for me. I started hearing the horror stories from a 4th yr friend of mine. (one example) She had to take some music edu classes (when you're going for elem edu you need to, apparently) and she had to play the recorder in front of her entire auditorium style class. Talk about embarrassing. I am not a public...player...even though I'm not shy. So yea...I changed majors again. I decided (after a yr long break) that Psychology was more up my alley. I am now about another year into it and like it. I know that I will not be practicing psychology because you need to have a much higher degree than a BS, and since I can't not work and be at school all day, that doesn't seem like an option. I am probably looking at a career as a social worker. I am excited about that because I would love to be able to help out families in need of medical attention they can't afford get the financing they need to proceed with treatment (I would not like to work with children going into the foster care system, but I would not turn down such an opportunity to help). Anyway, all of this to say that tonight I spent about two hours picking my classes for this next semester. I am/am not looking forward to this next semester. More than anything because most of the classes are just requirements, not something that I am looking forward to. But I will get through them, of course. I will end up registering for the classes on Sunday, so it'll be official then. Whatever, I just want to finish already.

Good night! (1:54 am! I'm going to pay for that later! At least it's Friday!)
