I just took the last test of my college career. Feels a little odd. This part of my life is over, at least officially. Yipes.
Ironically, the last question on the last test of my last geology course asks. "You are in charge of a commotte which has been told not to sign the Kyoto Protocol. Use what you have learned in this class to argue why it should not be signed."
I came into geology saying i wanted to save the environment. Oil companies = bad, environmetn = good. But with the more i learned and the more classes i took i began to care less and less. Maybe the idealist in me was dying, or maybe i was beginning to see the world in its grim reality. If i don't work for the oil companies, someone will. Oil production won't sceace untill all the reserves have run out. So in the end i came to be exactly what i intended to fight. And this last exam question metaphysically attests to that.
.... Or maybe not. I mean i don't even HAVE a job yet.
