I'm nowhere near college, so chances are my interests and therefore my answer to this question will change, but for now I'm thinking of majoring in film or English/writing/whatever.
I just wanna get out,
Stuck inside of this.
Waiting for something else,

It's just that your school is a completely different system than the college system, so it's hard to explain them as parallels.


this is also the way it was described to me by my guidence councelor last year.

Because every girl that goes there is on the CM....or looks like a girl on the CM.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

You don't have majors or minors in high school buddy. You have classes. You don't earn degrees. God....would someome please let me flame on this kid? Just once?
:lol:

Lots of high schools around here, the specialized ones, do require you to pick an area of emphasis. That doesn't mean you're "majoring" or "minoring" in anything because you don't get a degree. Degree is pretty much the same as "major". I wonder if I have to pick a minor...hm.

I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

it's a big ass party that even the naked guy is invited to. :nod:
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

me too :(
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

I just finished High School and I have no real plan of action. At least its not fully fleshed out. I dont plan to major in anything. I plan to work for a year, then go to "New Media Campus" which would give me the skills needed to work in the game industry or computer graphic industry.
