I wouldn't be able to deal with being labeled a failure by my family.  :|  I'm going to community college for a couple years, then transferring to a state college to get a degree in Graphic Design or Communications or whatever the fuck the field is where I use computers to make any sort of media or design stuff.  I really want to get a job doing something that isn't boring as shit, but also have flexible hours.  So, I'm hoping that this is the right field for me.

What's cool is, I've already got a job doing the stuff, and it's exactly what I want.  However, I want to move away from here and delve deeper into the field and find some really interesting stuff.  What terrifies me is all this outsourcing and crowdsourcing stuff.  I really hope it doesn't leave me jobless in the future.

Nice to hear from you again, Coreh.

McTaggart:
Heh, I'm doing my degree because there's no other way that will make me learn all this awesome stuff I'd love to know. I really believe that that's the best reason for higher education.

Yeah, we came up with this whole gay pirate movie concept.

Welcome back!

Forte, I totally agree.  Because honestly, during the zombie apocalypse, how much good is a Masters in Business Administration going to do you?  

I was told that the B.S. is unofficially required because it proves you can put it in the hard work (in case you're wondering, I'm trying to get into the game industry).  If your portfolio is good enough, they'll sometimes overlook this, but yeah, it's essentially resume padding.

And I HATE lazy students.  I had a kid (I say kid, when I believe he's actually 7 years older than me) in one of my classes last year (he had Asperger's, but the kind where you don't shut up or shower), who prided himself on not having a job and living off of disability pay.  He was also notorious for turning in utter crap for his assignments, and a few cases of blatant plagiarism.  He had to take that class three times to pass (you have to have special permission to take it more than twice), and scraped by with a 61.  He's had to take most of his classes twice or more because of his sheer lack of effort.  He had take Studies in Mythology twice.  It's easier than Leisure in Society.  A class in which we played kickball several times.

I've been told he's really good at math and physics if he applies himself, which has been apparently twice.  I don't know how he thinks he's ever going to get a job in the industry with the kind of work ethic he has, nay, flaunts.  His smell creates a visible radius in the classroom...people try to keep at least 8 feet away at all times.

Sorry about the rant.

Hunter:
Welcome back Coreh! Now its cool to say gae again!
