Thanks, Ginger! I have passed the recipe along.
I hope the fun part of your vacations starts soon, ND.
Sean, I'd definitely look into a career counselor. And I've heard of (made took?) that test. Figuring out what you want to do is hard but necessary.
I purposefully took off from work an hour before we closed today so I could get in some puppy time and still make it to my yoga class tonight. Because I think it'll be cheaper than a trial for murdering someone. Anyone.
Sean,
also not to make your search more complicated, but you often can major in one thing and minor in another.
I know various people who have majored in the arts (visual, dance, music) who also minored in business because they wanted to have a fall back if their first love didn't pan out.
Not all colleges will take all classes as transfer credit, ime.
There is, conveniently enough, a general roadmap for transferring into the Cal State or UC systems. That's what I've been picking my classes from so far, from the general transfer requirements. The only things so far that don't transfer (at least to the CS/UC systems) are my math classes, just because it's remedial (for college) math. I have to finish this session, and take one more class before I can take basic college level algebra, and starting hitting math classes that transfer.
I am looking at a small handful of out of state colleges as transfer possibilities, or even colleges outside of LA, but I would be sad to leave this place.
For shits and grins, I've even looked at the transfer requirements to Harvard, and am seriously considering applying, just to see what happens. Because Harvard.
I know various people who have majored in the arts (visual, dance, music) who also minored in business because they wanted to have a fall back if their first love didn't pan out.
I've talked to a few of the more artsy majors, and minoring/dual majoring in business is indeed a popular choice.
My BFF double majored in art and business. Now she's an art/UX director at a small publishing firm, doing what she loves. It seems like it was a good combo for her.
ND, I'm sorry about the travel problems.
I want to go to a water park. If I can't really go anywhere on vacation, then I want to at least do fun stuff around here. It's not that far to Hersheypark. Can't find anyone to go with me, though. I'm OK with restaurants and movies on my own, but I'm not sure I'd really like going to Hersheypark by myself.
Oh man, I'd love to go to Hershey with you, Hil, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. It's not far for me, either.
Aww, thanks anyway, Amy. If you do end up with some free time, let me know.
I don't know. When I did it, I thought Journalism was, if not practical, a vocational choice.(and it did mean I learned how to ask all sorts of questions and see and do a variety of things.) I wish now that I'd pursued more Spanish and more policy-related things. Sometimes I think the major/ Minor is too rigid.
Sean, you might want to look into electrical engineering and then specializing in sound. Would combine your hard earned skills with a very marketable degree.
