I can't give up on maths. The darn school system would kick us out.

Why would I kiss anyone not random?? They're always random. Or not.

Ah poor you, luckily I got to give it up. Now I get to do subjects I actually care about. Apart from Psychology. smiley - zzz

Lucky you. We have to drudge through all of these useless classes so we'll be able to pass all of these stupid standardized tests. What do you plan on going into?

Hmmm... well I really like English so I think I'll study that at university. Beyond that I'm not sure. I used to want to become a psychologist but I've kinda been put off that by the whole "learning psychology" thing and finding it a huge smiley - yawn ... although I've heard it's different in real life. Maybe counselling, that seemed good, I went to this mental health training thingy last week and it was cool.

How about you?

I don't work well with people, so I've gone to the other side. I'm interested in ethology which is basically animal psychology. I would think applied psychology is different than sit down and learn it psychology.

Ooh! sounds interesting. What's it involve?

It's just basically the study of environmental and chemical cues that shape the way animals behave. There isn't much money in it but it has higher hopes than most of myother choices.

Ha! No. We have a certain number and type of classes we have to take before college. For example, I have to have five maths (one done in 8th grade), 4 histories, 4 literatures, 3 sciences, and 4 fine arts/PE/health classes. I'm skipping next year and going into college so I'll be able to start doing more class specialization thank god.
