Hello, folks.

I would just like to say that the best thing about writing papers on topics you don't have a vested interest in is that it makes life suck.

I am writing a paper on the New Deal. For everybody outside the United States, it doesn't mean anything to you, I'm sure, haha. The book I had to read for this paper was bar-none one of the worst books I have ever had to read, and go figure, this is my last semester of classes and I'm just now starting to hate my major. YESSSSSSS. Only three more months until this semester is over =)

The positive about all this is that I have a bitchin' thesis statement; the problem is having to go back in this pain-in-the-large bundle of fusty sea lion spatula walrus sticks to find all the evidence to support my claim.

So, go me, I should get back to work. One paragraph down, who knows how many more to go!

New Rosetta album is nice.

edit: what's your major again?

Hey, I happen to know what the New Deal is :D I think it'd make an interesting subject but maybe I'd change my mind if I had to read read books and write an essay. You do seem like a guy who can write paragraphs out of nothng, no need to worry!

I was going but I missed out on that free ticket thing and don't have a ride :( Have fun.

I didn't even know there was a free ticket thing, but I'm going with someone who worked for Alice Cooper in the 90's and we're on the guest list.

Yeah, ticketmaster had a code of "heaven" where you could get free tickets. It ended yesterday.

my roommate was drunk on the floor and said 'it made sense at the time.'

Thanks!

You didn't answer my question, though. What's your major?

Pain.

brb, must puke

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan;15290546]Thanks!

You didn't answer my question, though. What's your major?[/QUOTE]

It's called Group Social Studies, and we can pick four points of emphasis: political science, history, economics, or geography. I opted for history, because a) I don't understand politics in the slightest and am admittedly pretty ambivalent about what's going on nationally and worldwide, b) supply and demand, how fun is that to teach? If the cost of toilet paper increases to $120/roll, the supply will increase, the demand will fall, and the probability that people will be using their hands to wipe their asses or find a substitute good such as Kleenex will increase, and c) geography is cool, but the program here involves using GIS and GPS, and that shi[font=verdana]t[/font] doesn't fly with me.

So, Group Social Studies, History emphasis, and I'm double minoring (which is way more sweet than double majoring): psychology and history.

Because of No Child Left Behind (let me backtrack: I don't follow politics at all unless it has to do with education, haha), I have to become certified to teach both my major and minor. So, realistically, I'm more marketable because I will be certified to teach history, geography, economics, political science, and psychology, but because of NCLB, the odds of me teaching what I want to teach (psych) is extremely low.

So, I might consider going back to school if I get shafted with teaching to become a psychologist, get my doctorate, and then teach psychology courses at a university. Alternatively, I've considered getting my Master's in counseling and being a school counselor, helping students with scheduling and all that other good stuff. But, that's so far down the line right now (at least two years), I just have to get by this semester without dying, haha.

[quote]Yes, but not in a bad way.[/quote]

:o.

I'm thinking about teaching as well. Right now I'm an anthro major planning on minoring in Scandinavian Studies and since this is virtually useless, I plan on going to grad school to get my MA and teach or something

what a pointless idea

Isn't ATM an anthropology major as well? You could always shoot him a message on Stalkbook if you get stuck.

Hahaha. The thing I want to do is teach psychology, so if it means doing stupid psychology stuff like becoming a psychologist in order to get a job professing psychology at a university, then so be it. I wouldn't be happy about it, but then again, this is all assuming I get screwed with a bad teaching job.

I'll have to see how the winter goes, though, when I start my TAing.

Everyone who teaches psych has to be a psychologist?

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution;15290805]Everyone who teaches psych has to be a psychologist?[/QUOTE]

Yes, sir... at least, at the uni level. I doubt any university will look at your resume or application for professing there if you don't have a doctorate. If I was able to get a job teaching psych in a high school, then awesome, because all I have to do is pass the certification exams in psych. But, if that doesn't pan out (and, realistically, it may not), and I still want to do that, then I have to go the doctorate route.
