Choosing a Major



I'm seriously considering declaring Humanities as my major.  I love taking arts and history classes.  If I decide to return to international trade, it doesn't matter what I study.  It only matters that I have a degree.  If I choose to pursue a new field, there seem to be many for which a humanities degree would be appropriate. 

This semester I'm taking Humanities, Art Appreciation, and Spanish classes, all of which are appropriate.  If I'm still as excited about studying art, languages, and history at the end of the semester, I will make it official.

I will see the caves at Altamira in late Spring, you are welcome to any shots that you might find useful, if I'm allowed to take any. Always an open question. Still you might as well start early.

It's the planet widget that is swallowing up memory, there is no dump after each rotation.

Good Luck on the long pull to come...I wouldn't have the will power to do college again!

I figure I can't suggest anyone what to major in as my undergraduate degree is in philosophy and I really ended up there by default. Good luck

@Vince: Thank you! I hope they let you get some good ones. I've grown attached to the planet. I love to see new little yellow dots...

@buffalodick: I've been a single mom for the last 17 years. I can do anything.

@sage: I don't know of many people who actually have jobs in the field they studied, anyway. I might as well do something I'm going to enjoy.

yes I rather like the thing myself. When I view the thing I wonder who is reading your blog in Hyderabad.

@Vince: Whoever it is doesn't leave comments so I don't know either. It's pretty cool knowing someone in that corner of the world has visited me, though.

I'm one of the few men that enjoys and supports strong women..I'm whichcha, in your quest- You will be a force to be dealt with!

@gayle: I'll keep what works and get rid of what doesn't. I'll make it work.

@buffalodick: I always wondered why so many men seem to want someone they can feel superior to. I never understood that. Are you guys that like strong women really so few and far between? I'm hoping not.
