Allo: if it isn't a bother, what'd you get an M.A. in and what was your area of study? Also, how are your job prospects looking if that isn't too bold?

My MA was in Literary Theory and Criticism. It was a taught MA, so I didn't have a specific area of study, but I went with SF for my dissertation.
Job prospects aren't so good, but I can't honestly say you should care about that, since I live on a tiny island where the opportunities are very limited.

Perhaps you've answered this elsewhere: what sort of doctor do you want to be?

Well I initially said OB/Gyn when I first started but Neurology seems more and more compelling, I probably won't really know until I start clinical rotations next year. The two years I took off from school after my undergrad years as well as wasting my first grad school year under my old major means that technically I should be already done with med school by now, every time I think of that I try not to stab myself.
Do you already know what you want to do? I believe a writer if my memory isn't completely failing me.

Don't try to stab yourself. You might never have known you didn't want to do those things if you didn't try them. Then you'd be stuck wondering, right? Better to know it and be a bit behind. Besides, I'm sure that time wasn't wasted. You certainly developed as a person.
Me? Oh gosh, no. I don't know what I want to do. I did used to want to be a writer, but I hate everything I write so that seems out. I'm fresh out of undergrad and taking a year to see what I really want to do. I'm considering getting a masters in literature and philosophy, but all my professors tell me not to because it is a waste of money and I'll never get a job.

I never realized what it meant to be American until I was comparing electric, cheese graters on Amazon.

Why do you like your own posts? Do you sometimes find the universe speaking through you?

:D No, I'm just being funny because I've purposefully liked my own posts before and claimed I spoke for the Universe.

ah well idk about the Universe, but perhaps liking one's own posts can become a trend.

Misty as in the Misty of Chincoteague stories. They predate poketardation by many years. Now go blasting off again.

Thanks, puppy. And good comment on the terrorism thread that I'm still waiting to somehow become an actual debate. I entertained the possibility of stepping in and pretending I support the terrorist acts in Paris, but I couldn't think of a good argument.

Lot of Europeans here, they don't really value freedom of speech as much as we Americans do. Wouldn't go over too well in the debate forum. I'm not a fan of some of the censorship that's happened in that thread.

Yeah, it's a little strange though, I would have thought after Charlie Hebdo Europe would see the importance of freedom of speech that Americans have been railing about for decades. Instead, it seems like the terrorism worked to make them even more wary of that particular freedom.
Yeah, I know it wouldn't, just like on the Charlie Thread saying it's ok to tell jokes didn't go over.
As for the censorship, I completely agree. It isn't racist to say Islam is a religion of violence because surprisingly Muslims aren't a race. It honestly drove me up a wall to see the mods censoring the debate about the relationship between terrorists and Muslims.
