Happy Darwin Day!

Hooray for anthropology! I am studying it as well though I am still an undergrad, so I've got a long way to go.

I took a class called Human Evolution and Prehistory last year, and it was an absolutely excellent class. I almost considered switching my major to anthropology with a concentration in Archeology, but I really don't think this is the right school for it, and I really don't want to transfer out into New Mexico or study classical archeology.

Sleep's a weird one. A little while ago doctors worked out that my Dad hadn't slept uninterrupted for longer than a minute at any point in about twenty years, which is close to not sleeping at all. This did have some pretty serious side effects, such as giving him a bad memory and a bad mood most of the time, but he was nevertheless still able to hold down a job in academia and personal relationships when just a few days of sleep deprivation gave the famous Mr Tripp hallucinations and crippling paranoia.
Hopefully, this means I can one day evolve beyond sleep and essentially have eight hours of cosy lying in every night, which would be awesome.

Yay for Anth folks! What genre do you want to do? I'm doing sociocultural- environmental anthropology with a focus on Japan, but I absolutely adore archaeology and the fun field schools we get to do. Dirt is my friend.
Liz:
I have yet to decide, as I'm interested in all four. I would love to study the ancient Mayans, so that's archaeology. I would also love to study ancient languages, so there's your linguistics. Then there's forensic anthropology if I feel like I want to go into the biological side of it. The cultural portion is probably what interests me the least, but I culd still see myself going in that direction.
