My lovely friend Ian mentioned that I havent updated this lately. Mostly because I have been updating other blogs, and meaning to sideload to this one but never got around to it.
I am deep in the heart of my degree, theres almost no turning back now.
I somehow by luck of the Gods got in to Social Policy 435/597 class. Its not much work, which is nice just a lot of theories and concepts to tackle. It is helping me because there are people in it who are actually doing what I want to be doing in a couple of years. Its a miracle!!! some people do graduate from BSU!!!!
Its just that after wading though my cores here, I lost track of what my goals were. They were always there, but a bit fuzzy. So taking classes that excite and ignite me, I am regaining that passion.
Plus it helps that I have to explain my degree decision to every one. Here is a typical conversion
"What major are you"
" I am a Social Work.../
-person so rudely interrupts.. "Oh how nice!"
... Criminal Justice Major
.person looking confused, or maybe for my misplaced badge or gun "Ooooooo umm thats nice. Have fun with that "
its not the fact Im a double major, its the fact that people have a preconceived idea of who deserves social help when, where and how. My chosen academic ideology smacks that notion across the face.
