That's why I'm taking a semester off to work at a hospital and see if I'm really up for it. (Mum also freaked when I did this, but hey---I'm paying for my education. Soooo~ Whatevs.)

Heh. Because. 1. It's dead people. 2. I'm a 'girl', "What are people going to think about this!?" 3. 13 years wasted on my youth. 4. "Pharmacy is better. Only 6 years! And it's a respectable job." 5. "WHAT IF YOU GET CAUGHT UP WITH A MAFIA BODY AND THE MAFIA TRY TO THREATEN YOU TO COVER UP MURDERS FOR THEM OR ELSE AND YOU'RE TRYING TO BE A GOOD PERSON AND TELL THE TRUTH BUT IN THE END I GET A POLICE AT MY DOORSTEP TELLING ME MY DAUGHTER WHEN TO MED SCHOOL TO END UP ON A FORENSICS TABLE INSTEAD!"

....Ah. My life.

Ahah, my mom lucked out. All her sons chose "safe" professions. By the time we're done with college, she'll have an economist, a doctor, and an accountant for sons :-D

Aww~ ^u^ That's nice! Just don't tell my mother that. My brother is graduating high school this year and wants to build robots. Mom thinks that's a bit strange too.

"Why? You don't like people?"

Me: "Nope. He's going to make cyborgs."

Mom: "WHAT!? NO!"

Victor: "...I'll build my own wife, and dammit she'll make me a sandwich."

Mom: "........One child wants to live with the dead. The other wants to have a robot wife. Why?"

Ah. We love messing with our mother.

That's one thing I like about my parents. The conversation about my major went something like this: "What is this 'cognitive science'? Well, whatever it is, have fun with it, I guess."
