can you not be a rapper, work at trader joe's and do drugs simultaneously? I had a super hard time deciding.
also, congratulations!!!!!

I have a B.A. in Literature too.

Is law school out of the question for you?
-
I other words "are you a decent human being?"

Congrats! If you're anything like me, the next year of your life will probably be confusing or frustrating, but it gets better. Good luck on the job hunt!

See - THAT'S thinkin' - what did/are YOU majoring in Emma, other than Life, which you obviously aced?
-
I have that degree too. Whatever you do, don't go to school for library science..
DO DRUGS IN THE PEACECORP AND RAP ABOUT IT!
don't feel any pressure to get a real job. Just have fun. Do more drugs. Make music. Travel. Real jobs will always be there to come back to (unless something goes terribly wrong, in which case, we're all in trouble) So just go out there and do everything you want to do and have as much fun as possible.
CONGRATULATIONS THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER!

Thanks everyone.

Excellent advice, but I was actually thinking of eventually going back to school for library science (ha HA). Why are you against it?

Awww TL, that's sweet of you to say. I am also going to put it on a t-shirt: I FAILED MATH BUT I ACED LIFE. Then I will have a hard time wearing that t-shirt out in public.
Once I get there (I have something like ten days left until the end of grade 11!) I will be doing either creative writing or english lit with a philosophy minor. So i can talk all fancy at parties full of other unemployed people.
Also, No Underbites: I know nothing about library science except for the fact that it involves libraries and is therefore amazing and you should do it. Spotless logic, right? I know!

I believe George W. Bush has a list that looks exactly like yours labelled "Options for January 10th."

it's good in some ways. i guess i just felt pressure to get some practical skills so i could find a stable sort of job while i explore my hobbies on the side - so i didnt have to depend on any of my hobbies a source of income. and so far it has worked fine in that sense.
and it could just be general frustration with my current job, but i do wonder if i needed to put that pressure on myself and go through the whole library education process. like if i could have been happier on the job doing something more creative in the day-to-day, had i been adventurous and explored that route. it's hard to say. i guess there's still time.
there are interesting components to library/archival work, and it's not at all stressful so that's a plus. and the environment is usually pretty laid back, and the people are generally nice. library school is pretty dry though - its basically elaborate theory on how to file things.
if you go this route, i can tell you everything i know about the Rutgers program and job hunting in the field.
oh and there's a librarians party in williamsburg at enids (i know, *groan*) friday- the 16th

That's a really good point though. I can't see him getting many speaking appearances in the near future. I suppose a lot of people would be interested in reading his memoirs, but I can't see him pulling a Nixon and getting any of his image back since he has neither respect or intelligence. At least he still has his family even though he ruined their name as well!
-
Congraduations!
-
PS: don't do too many drugs
-
Nicely done, congratulations!
-
The world needs more rappers.
Never look back.

Congrats! Don't be a playwright, not like that ever would have occurred to you.
