I think I might be becoming enamoured of science again. This used to be the case in the distant past before I took science classes in high school and became disillusioned and bored. In AP Bio recently, we did a lab involving a very small crustacean of genus Daphnia. I liked the Daphnia a lot, because they were jerky and transparent. Maybe I should double major in Plan II and Biology rather than Plan II and Business? People tell me Business (and Law, which I plan to go into eventually) is bad for the state of my soul.

I couldn’t imagine you in a lab coat analyzing dry bullshit.
“Ephemeropteran cerci and their relationship to crustacean rheology, by Anush.”
You’d kill your coworkers.
I couldn’t imagine you in a suit coat spewing wet bullshit.
“As you can see, moving this decimal point a few places to the right increases our third-quarter profits by over 10,000 percent!”
You’d kill your coworkers.
between you two, i have no future!
What about bartending?
what about something that helps people?
if your lab-coat-wearing dry-bullshit-spewing cures leukemia, then ok. i can’t imagine the suit spewings having any benefit to anyone but yourself.
david said recently how impressed he was with you extempers, and how much you seemed to have picked up about government, economics, foreign policy, etc. so quickly. maybe you should keep in mind how good you are at those things. there are fields there that actually benefit other people.
Honestly, I don’t really know. I think I would not choose a field based on helping other people unless that field would also be something I really could feel fulfilled doing. Law could potentially help people, you know, based on what I do exactly. I could take down big tobacco! All of these things seem pretty interesting to me right now. Except bartending. Psht, Arman.
