Procrastinating by making a school thread, I think this is ironic or something?

    I'm a writing major

    It isn't slated to make me a whole lot of money, naturally, but money is something that I use to make myself happy, and writing and reading make me happy, so I don't know why I would need a whole lot of money

    I don't need much money to get by, either

    also speaking of procrastinating right now I am deciding between spending the evening productively (i.e. reading and writing) or unproductively (i.e. Oblivion)

    hrmmm

    normally I'd say "it's the weekend that means you can procrastinate" but I started this story on Thursday and haven't touched it since, which is irresponsible at best and disastrous at worst

    edit: one of the funniest things about being a writinger majoring is that there's no such thing as free time

    my time is divided up into the following categories
    1) Sleeping/showering/driving/spending time with someone that I love
    2) Reading/writing
    3) Feeling guilty about not writing

    I cannot think of a single thing that does not fall into one of these categories

    Scoring 100% for it will look good on your resume, I guess.

    one thing i learned in university is never underestimate your ability to smooth over missing something really important.

    Wait...

    I didn't do very well in university.

    Hrm, I wished I had a talent or specific interest. Would make the college thing easier.

    As in turns out my interests and talents don't make money. What good is an English degree?

    Yeah I guess it is good fuel.

    I hope to invest in senior services and funeral homes since the boomers will all start dieing around the same time.

    Other than than no career goals.

    My generally ignorant impression is that BAs aren't very good for getting a job in the specific field they are related to unless you go through grad school and all that, but they're still decent for getting jobs in random stuff.

    The Psych course at my uni has something like 90% placement guarantee once you're qualified.

    Still really have no idea what to do after this year.

    Doing a BA for a year to get my GPA up to get into....something.

    Original plan was architecture, but I don't know any more.

    Aaaaghhhhh!

    I'm trying to register online for university courses and just as I finish and hit "submit", they inform me that apparently they never got a transcript from me.

    Even though they gave me an entrance scholarship based on the marks I have on the transcript I sent them.

    Today was our live presentation. You guys. I don't think I've ever crashed and burned so spectacularly before. We had nothing planned. Jon, a team-mate tried to create a Powerpoint in 5 minutes.

    He made a background.

    We go up, ready to wing it.

    First up: 9/11. I kid you not, he throws a paper plane at the picture of the Twin Towers. It was all downhill from there.

    jump.jpg
    it was about the size of a nickle and it was trying to eat a different smaller jumping spider.
    I also saw one of these on the bench i was on.

    I was riding the bus and a mentally handicapped child licked me.

    He would later bite my arm.

    This probably explains a lot.
