Thanks guys.
The David: I hesitate to use "overachiever", because I give extremely little attention to school, unless a class challenges me. Even then, I slack quite a bit. Not bragging, it just comes easy. Yet unlike some people in my class, I don't let it get to my head. However, burning out is still possible.
What are you studying?
If something truly challenges me, I embrace it. An example is football (american). I came in my freshman year very unathletic, and decide "I like the sport, I want to make it mine." So I am doing that now, and will enter my senior year, to be the best receiver in our league.
That reminds me. I might want to go to college to play football. It is hard to understand that I think going to school would waste time, but going for football isn't. It is hard to describe the passion for the sport I have, and how much more I can learn from it than school.
I would love to teach high school as well! I guess I meant just not get a factory milled job from my degree.
Oh and nice writing and "essay state". Thanks.
Baltar: I definitely have a very specific plan, and I will never go with the flow unless it serves me 100%. Can I ask you what you studied, and what you do now? It just seems that everyone I talk to, even the people that enjoy their major, either delay doing what they love, or sadly never do what they love. I would rather bypass both options.
