Hey ya'll
So after the lovely conversation that I had with my friend yesterday one thing was brought to my attention.
Uh, I could get a single egree with a triple major, or I could get a double degree. Which sounds more impressive? Uhm, the double degree, of course!
I am waiting on a response from uni, but basically the main thing that was like *ahHhh.stream.of.light.from.the.heavens.indicating.sudden.awesome.knowledge* was that in a Bsc (bachelor of science) you don't have to do just SCIENCE papers. I didn't know that geography/development studies could be considered under a Bsc!! Ahh, revelation! No BIO/CHEM etc papers for me, no!!
So I could pretty easily transfer everything into a double degree (so a BA in POLS/INTP and Bsc in DEVE). Ha.
Of course that would prolly add on an extra year of uni or something. ...which is depressing in that I would prolly have to stay in NZ coldness for longer (the again, maybe I coud really look into that overseas exchage thing if I were to do this, maybe that could be an incentive). ...but it sounds way more awesome and I mean if I already have done most of th work, why not end up with something that is way fancier?!
I mean, I still want to do a masters in something too (probably something Development studies related cos its my favourite subject)... hmmm. Decisions....
I will see what reply I get from Vic, but I'm kind of excited that might be a possibility?
Right now though, I am reading about Bureaucracy. This book is at least readable. I swear that other gross green book I will just avoid from now on. ...and I am thinking about starting my brainstorming for myfirst essay! Yay! I love starting essays. It's weirdly exciting (I'm a strange creature, yes). Of course that wears off when you can't find what you want/you write a whole essay only to realise you didn't even answer the question/you have to source everything/you have to worry about the word limit....
But, for now I will revel in the fun of -starting- it. ;)
My Geo lecture today was cool. I very much like his teaching style. Oh and the fact he likes to play music (this weeks theme is Easter Island music) and interact with us is very good. I shall have to compliment him on his awesomeness later in the course.
I hear he even sings us a song at some point haha. ^_^
At 4.30pm there is a gym class called X55. I am going to try it and see what I think...
It looks intense but I'm going to keep an open mind. ...and if I don't like it I'll just stick to ZUMBA. :) ...and salsa classes and walking up that awful steep hill to get to uni (when it's not raining). Yay for exercise!
I am taking volunteers for proof reading and looking over my essays. hehe. I do have at least one that I know of so that's awesome. :D
Okay, back to study...
xx
A double degree sounds way more impressive. You might as well go for it, since you have done most of it.
