I am a space pirate. I hijack intergalactic spice shipments and sell them on the black market in Nal Hutta. With my trusty blaster at my side, I galavant all over the galaxy getting in fights in sleazy cantinas and romancing hot space chicks. I attended the Imperial Academy on Coruscant, rising quickly to the rank of Captain before a run-in with a ranking officer who was going to kill a wookiee slave got me kicked out before graduation. But in a show of loyalty, that wookiee is now my bodyguard/co-pliot, and has sworn a life-debt to me. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

Well, I\'m a Kopkingian English Major.  But my technical job title is a Reading Intervention Specialist.  I\'m actually trying to become an English Teacher in a foreign country, can you say Japanese Puntang?

Wow...that\'s actually really cool. Kopkingian Engish is a bad thing...don\'t go there ;) I\'m learning Japanese as well. I originally wanted to become an English teacher over in Japan, because there\'s good money in it. But then I got interested in health related medical sciences. I hate dissecting human cadavers in college anatomy though. That\'s some nasty shiz, but I guess it\'s good to learn about that stuff...

I was an Exercise Physiology student up until recent, but I lost interest in it because most of the classes I took I knew more than the professor.  Also being a bodybuilder, I was overdoing my gym time, I mean it would drive me insane being in the gym 8-10 hours a day working with clients and then spend another 2-3 hours working out.  A dude I knew gave me some advice on that subject as he had done the same thing, and told me that if you combine your hobby and your job, you\'ll burn out on both of them.

I envy u bob, I\'ve always wanted to be a chef.  It\'s prolly the answer I\'d give to the Office Space question.

Right now I\'m delivering at dominhoes until one of those bastard companies likes the resume I keep sending out.  Maybe I need an inkjet printer instead of colored paper + crayons.

But I just graduated with a degree involving web design & multimedia.  Changed my fuggin major 5x to everything from mechanical engineering to theater, I know everything.

im going to have to get a job soon. Need some money before college.

As for majoring and stuff i have no idea. Either down to audio engineering (maybe recording for bands or television/radio) and...astronomy,lol. Polar opposites but astronomy interests me. Just not sure if i can/want to get a job in it.

I also write a video game column for a local paper. Putting that Associate\'s in Journalism to good use... or something.

I want to sell it to other papers but haven\'t decided the best way to approach them...

I work at Circuit city in the Computer and camera department.



Well we all know I\'m not in college.
But I want to either major in Mechanical Engineering and go into it pre-law and work as a patent lawyer.

OR like my counselor said

I could major in Mechanical Engineering in FIVE years but every other semester is a Co-op which means I\'ll graduate with work experience.

Or

I could major in Mechanical Engineering and sign up for a dual degree and get a masters in a year.

Or

Political Science then go to law school


Of course that is assuming that SMU takes me.
