Students Spend way too much on tuition every semester. I guess minimum wage has gone up but does it really add up? I could complain to the admissions office like the rest of those go-getters but I've found relief in quite a few of my classes. Yes I've been through math classes that caught up on countless hours of sleep but I'm talking about actually enjoying my classes and all that. the truth is college students don't need another professor cramming us full of dates and names. We need the Entertainers!
I guess there must be special training going around because a majority of the teachers I've had in the last year or so have gone the extra mile to tell really awful jokes in class or point out the pointless puns in each subject. My current History class at USU is taught by Mr. Lewis. I think this guy missed his calling in life as a Comedian. He can actually get all one hundred and fifty of us to groan and even chuckle at the same time over his "exclusive footage" of historical events(Far Side comic strip depictions of the landing at Plymouth Rock). Strange enough I actually remember the stuff he was talking about. It's kind of hard to miss when he raises his voice to mention that something will be on the test.
Who'd have known that the reason my high school grades stunk was because my teachers didn't tell enough dumb Jokes!

How to Choose a Life
It has come to my knowledge that this world doesn't look kindly on the indecisive at heart. This hasn't been just a sudden revelation. Actually I think it all began back in Junior High. I distinctly remember being handed a career catalog by my parents and being told i was free to go when i had decided on a career to work towards. I must have chosen something because i was back to playing the computer only hours later.
My first years in college have been great and my only goal was to my Associate's degree and get married. Kylee is quite lucky, having known exactly what she wanted to do since High School. But it turns out an Associate's doesn't mean a thing to the working class these days and in order to get into any classes at a University one must tell them exactly what you want as your job for the rest of your life, how much money you want to make, where you want to live, how many kids you will have, what your favorite color will be in twenty years, what brand of cereal you like... Some things are just impossible to predict. so what is an indecisive to do?
As a masterful procrastinator and proficient choice-avoider I pride myself on knowing how to beat the selective system and i think i have found the solution.
Every University has a Psychology Program. No one knows why, it's just part of the curriculum. The big secret is that psychology is a multipurpose discipline that can be applied in many fields of work and business. So... if one were to enroll in the psych major and promise to master in business or the sort, not only would they learn how to better work with people they would also postpone the actual career choice till much later! Bwa Ha Ha Ha!!!
Jake, where there's a will there's a way
