LJ Idol - Week 8 - LJ Rants

Nov 12, 1982 18:24

In college I minored in Communications (And History, And Political Science). Now Comm is a notoriously useless major, but I think thats primarily because every sorority girl and metrosexual male took the mass media comm classes thinking they were gonna make it big time on MTV. I took classes like "Organizational Communications" "Conflict ( Read more... )

I love your icon. I blog because I am an internet attention whore, I admit it.

Now Jenny, I don't believe we discussed her yet, unless she is the one we spoke about this morning?

Yeah Judy the bee researcher grad student. She studies the effects of pesticides on bees, I put pesticides on bees. ;D

I should edit the entry to add "I don't blog to express myself, I do THAT by texting boxsofrain throughout the day" =D

Dramapocalypse

Dramapocalypse emosnail November 13 2008, 04:07:01 UTC

It can be so true O=

med_kitty November 13 2008, 04:43:31 UTC

I agree I love that word. And it does seem to follow any rants posts that are made by any of my friends.

emosnail November 13 2008, 04:46:35 UTC

Rant posts are the four one horseman of the dramapocalypse

med_kitty November 13 2008, 08:31:30 UTC

So what are the other three???

I majored in Chemistry.
Ended up getting my degree in Econ, but it was never my major.

Degrees emo_snal November 14 2008, 21:54:06 UTC

Really? You got a degree in something that had never been your major? I suppose that should be possible, though I'd never thought of it before. Is there a story here?

Re: Degrees millysdaughter November 14 2008, 22:14:10 UTC

It was easier than you might think--I got pregnant and could not sit in the chem lab, so I needed some place to use all those math classes. Most of the social science degrees are pretty flexible--I also considered doing history, but econ was faster.

Re: Degrees emo_snal November 14 2008, 22:24:41 UTC

Yeah I guess as long as you fit the requirements for the major they don't care if you were declared as it. When I talled up my units senior year I discovered I ALREADY HAD all the requirements met for a Poli Sci minor, that was kind of a pleasant suprise.

Excellent points all! May the Good Karmadillo roll over any Dramapocalyspe that comes your way!

Armadillo Behaviour emo_snal November 14 2008, 21:52:21 UTC

Hahaha Karmadillo ... if he/she doesn't just roll up into a ball and hide at the first sign of the Dramapocalypse! /=
