I was a sociology major/psych minor. I had planned on going to graduate school (I wanted to be a professor). I worked more than I went to school (worked about 50 hrs/week) so it took me longer than I planned to graduate. By the time I did graduate, I was so sick of school I couldn't bear the thought of going back
Now, I'm stuck with a sociology degree that I can't do too much with

Biology. I was a natural.
I remember being your basic delinquent in high school, not studying for my Biology final & the teacher approached my desk (I thought he was going to give me a hard time for flunking it..) & he told me I tied for the highest score in all of his classes. I still love nature & birdwatching, & love to think about why animals do things, & how they have been created to deal with their environment, everything. I'm an artist but sometimes feel like I've missed my calling.

At college my favs my freshman year were Career Opportunities in the Music Industry (pretty much covers every detail about music industry....really awesome class) ,Honors English, and Western Music History.
, my Oratorio chorus was awesome too.

In high school i liked Advanced Acting, and my Ensembles the best...English was cool too



Oh Yeah and I hate all Math classes , and Theory classes are from hell!!! MUSICIANSHIP II was the class i dreaded most second semester of my freshman year in college....I think i'd rather staple my fingers to my toes than transpose compositions....yuck...

In high school, I hated them all but Chemistry and History. I even hated my music classes because the teacher was really wierd...even for a music teacher. lol
In college, I loved my music classes (was a music major so I had to take them all) and Speech. I was on the speech team...of course, my best friend's mom was the coach. lol
Also enjoyed French and Political Science.
The only classes I really hated were Astronomy and Musicianship. I hated Astronomy because I took it expecting to actually learn something on the college level about a subject I am fascinated by, but it was mostly stuff I had learned from my dad before I even started kindergarten!! The prof started out by teaching us what nuclear fusion is. I'm sorry but if you're in college and you don't know what nuclear fusion is, you shouldn't have graduated from high school. JMO. I hated musicainship because it was sight singing in solfeggio (do-re-mi) at 8 in the morning. I can sight-sing anything you put in front of me, but not in solfeg and not at 8 AM. lol

hehe You sound like my boyfriend. He was a psych major, and his senior research project was a study on sexual motivation and attachment.
(Get your minds out of the gutter...it was surveys and interviews only!!)

How interesting! I love hearing about psych research and things like that. When I was a research assistant in the Fall semester '04 we did a study on whether strip clubs really make a difference in real estate compared to people's perceptions. Your boyfriend and I would probably get along quite nicely lol.

Under the cats, mostly.
Cool - I like this thread.
I excelled in languages and art. I'm afraid geography was a bit of a no-hoper - even if I do love to travel. I didn't know where *I* was half the time, let alone the rest of the world!! I didn't mind ENglish as long as I could study Shakespeare - up here they tend to get the year 5 (Scotlands equivalent to year 12 or something) to read Lewis Grassic Gibbons' "Sunset Song". Most of which is in Doric. I mean, what is the point in teaching a dead language in an ENGLISH language class? It is a highly depressing and boring story when you start to understand it - so once we were told that we had to answer our Higher paperson this book, I defied the lot of them and wrote on Shakespeare. Let's face it, I'd been averaging a D with the Sunset Song... so to pull a B out of the hat for something that our teacher never covered was a big achievement for me. Scots schools need a bit of a shakeup in my opinion. Still.... if I could do it again, I think I would

French is of course my best subject!


I love English & History!
I used to hate Maths with a passion, but I'm doing extremely well in it so I've fallen in love with it!
