It's Been an Experience, But I've Got to Go

February 27, 2005 - 11:57pm

I've been giving it much thought over the past few weeks, and I've decided that Anthropology (my current major) is simply not for me. I'm far too capitalistic, and care far too little about the world outside of my own sphere of existence. I have no desire to explore and improve. My short time in the working world, functioning as an independent adult, has crushed some of the idealism that comes so naturally to the academic hippified thinking that seems to dominate this major.

I mean that in the nicest way possible. It's my fault I no longer have a heart.

So I'm finishing out this semester of classes, but I'm changing my major as soon as I can to Sociology, a major I actually have taken the intro class in, unlike Anthropology, whose intro class I am taking right now. Yes, this may set back my graduation even more. I care not.

Other than thinking a lot about school, I have maintained my usual slacker existence. Don't worry about that; that mode of dealing is probably here to stay.

Eh, you'll be okay without Anthropology. How do you think those Vikings did it? I have to say though, my computer was slow to load and all I saw was "It's Been an Experience, But I've Got to Go...I've been giving it much thought over the past few weeks, and I've decided that..." I thought that you might be giving up your journal for some reason. I don't know why. I think my eyes got a little big though. So what I'm trying to say is that Vikings didn't have anthropology, but they did have electronic journals. And you can't be a Viking without one. So don't give up yours.

I second Sam. The Vikings were badass bloggers.
