Recap: Untitled

On the progress of my driving: my parents have gotten very nice about saying "left" and "right" instead of "that direction" now. That has made me happy.

I've spent some time looking at the classes I have to take for plant science major yesterday and am considering my options both in minors and double majors (actually think I can do it without going insane too, especially if I choose a second major that's close to my first one such as...biochemistry or genetics, for example). As for what I planned to do in the future (job-wise) I've realized how easy it is for me to pick a field--open up my bio book, flip through the plant section, and hone in on key words related to jobs. Result: botanical alchemy (sp?), genetics, bioengineering.

Roger.

Now, that leaves me with the little question of my minor. What should I pick? I've heard both writing and art but that seems...very...REMOTE compared to my major. What's the purpose of a minor, anyway? They don't have that system in China yet and so I'm left to guess its purpose.

Geeky moment (okay, geekier-than-usual moment): OOO I'll get to grow plants in testtubes--fun!

Note to Lucy: Arthur J. Crowley has slit-pupil eyes. You know, like a snakes? Black and white pictures are scary...normal people don't come in heightened contrast like that.

DECEPTION POINT- Dan Brown- 557 (okay, his books...how do I say this...essentially, if you've read one, you've read all.)
THE LOVELY BONES- Alice Sebold - 328 - Incredibly touching and inspirational from a story that stemmed from rape & murder.
FLATLAND- Edwin Abbot- 147 -For philosophical "non-geeks" who secretly likes math.
