now that I'm beginning to loathe the subject. Also, I want to be
constantly "in the know" and on the cutting edge of what's happening
technology- and culture-wise, with a progressive job, and IMO teaching
is quite the opposite: quite stagnant, especially in the subject of
history. So I don't really know what I'm going to do. I was planning on
getting the basic credits for college first anyway and then focusing on
a major. I just don't want to be involved in the management aspects of
a corproation. That puts me off, but I'll be looking around. |
hmmm... just remember a great way to understand the now.. is to
understand how we got to the now.... try to consider the situation in
the middle east if you don't understand the history of it. I
loved history... I took a class on South Asia (India/Pakistan) and it
opened a whole new world to me and a different way of seeing
things. Seriously consider history..

some more taken soon... I'm not near as good as honestly I used to be
... I took a long lay off but over the last year I've picked back up..

I'm going to Penn State, and am majoring in History (want to become a teacher). |
good man.. great school... excellent major.. that was one of my
majors as well (changing a bunch of times) . A year short of
graduating with a degree in history.. history has always been a passion
of mine. Good luck!

My life outside of music... rather vanilla actually....
Work at one of the largest electrical contractors in the state... do
everything for them.. estimating (have a talent for numbers) down to
electrical work (have a talent for making my hair stand on
end) Will be going back to school this spring to
complete a life's dream and finish my degree.. that having been
sidetracked by life..
Home not much to tell play bass and chat on ProgArchives and try to manage a chaotic family situation.

I'm really enjoying the college life. It's such a relief from work. I just feel like everything is so easy going.

Nice to know you have a routine, even for burping  - aaah, I still remember your original post when you became a father... how is the little 'un?

Thanks for asking Jim. He's almost 8 weeks old now, doing great,
he has his cranky periods and about 9 PM every night throws a real fit
(good screamer, must have inherited his mother's lungs  ), but otherwise perfectly healthy, we're fattening him up quite nicely

My life not related to music? Well, these days it's pretty much sitting in front of my PC and trying to write or do translations - while posting nonsense (and the occasional intelligent response) on PA. Of course it also happens that I get to the kitchen to prepare something to eat (rarely, but it does happen), water the plants on the balcony, sit or lie down with a book, watch a DVD... though of course none of these things happen without a substantial musical accompaniment! Ah, and I sometimes go out too... Usually in the morning because of the heat, but these days I'd rather stay at home. In autumn and winter I definitely go out more.

..a venture out of the velvet room....
Since I haven't had a job for the past two weeks, I spend my days at the house alone, trying not to spend too much money on stuff, waiting for school to start and spending a lot of time on PA (mostly the velevet room [go figure]). I've had some stuff to do the past few days, so that's nice.
