Why are you making it complicated?

[Cream Soda]

You're sittin on the couch, watchin TV, and your life is passing you by. You keep procastinating over and over. "Well maybe I'll go to school next year, maybe next semester", no do it right now. They'll work with you after work or you can go before work. You can do whatever you need to graduate. Go talk to somebody right now, they out to help you. You spend all day on the phone anyhow. Why don't you make a phone call that's gona help you in your future. All you gotta do is pick up the phone and make the call. Why are you making it complicated? It's easy *sigh*

[Linliel]

[Linliel]

JERK

[Zanz L. Barre The 3rd]

My AA only took me 4 years and $15,000 of free government money to spend on electronics.

3 years at Pen University, I'll never look back.

I joined the military, they'll pay for any school I want to do after the degree I already have.

[Akucaen]

I might go to the military for my masters.

I can't attend school yet for physical reasons but this thread was inspirational at least because it reminded me to do artwork and work on my novel. I used the same line, just added art and writing.

@Linliel very impressive .

[Senoska]

3 years later, and 3 schools later, I'm almost finished with my BA. Too bad they don't take all of my credits.

$15,000 a semester is reasonable... right?

Going into debt at a private school that isn't Ivy League for undergrad is fucking retarded.

[Rocl]

In four more years I should have my M.A. and an advanced certification so I can teach at a community college near you


COMING SOOOOOOOON

[Linliel]

what'll you teach? :O (and yay!)

[archibaldcrane]

I've always envisioned my second career to be teaching film production in college. Fortunately there's a bunch of positions that don't require you to have a PhD, just a Master's (and relevant work experience). I figure by the time I leave Hollywood I'll have plenty of credits to my name.

And then I'll bang co-eds like a drum.

[Rocl]

what'll you teach? :O (and yay!)

Anglais, leaning towards a concentration in rhetoric and linguistics cause I don't choose no favorites in regards to literature

excepting contemporary poetry

FUCK THAT SHIT paul muldoon you OK but what the fuck man you come in here with Louise Gluck and Jericho Brown riding in on Walcott and ask me what the fuck and I'll fight you

[Rocl]

Actually I just wanted to imagine a terrible scenario involving the 'big-name' contemporary poets I've done papers on, so that last bit makes NO sense really. I just really detest analyzing poetry. Fucking Rita Dove n shit

[Linliel]

I haven't done poetry since high school (and then we did Australian poetry) so I have nfi what you're talking about! You sure seem like you know what you're talking about though which is always a good start in teaching! ;D

Hehe good luck!

[Rocl]

I don't know shittttttttt

[Shiroikage]

~5 more years and I get to work in the exciting position of post-doc.
