I envy people like you more than anyone else in the world. I stress out and haven't gotten past a 3.65.

What are you studying?
English (not yet declared). Even if I decide not to teach, I'll probably still major in it just because I love the subject, even if it means living in a cardboard box.

I would love to teach high school as well! I guess I meant just not get a factory milled job from my degree.
Well, only do it if you don't mind getting a humble salary, having 'homework' for the rest of your life (if you stay with the job), and being surrounded by miserable hellions five days a week. Come to think of it, that doesn't sound too much worse than any other job...except that other jobs don't give you May, June, and July...
