Education & Reference - 25 September 2006

Can no one read anymore? A dictionary, encyclopedia or a standard reference work in the question's subject area would quickly answer many
of the questions. One example I saw posted was
how many millimeters in a centimeter! I can hardly
believe this was a serious question from someone
who did not know the answer.

I go to DePaul University, majoring in Political Science and minoring in Economics and it is not too hard. Its only difficult for me because I procrastinate and do everything, including papers, the night before.

It took my husband almost a YEAR to find a "decent" job here, he had to work at McDonald's until someone finally called him back. He went to college AND has experience. THEN, the pay isn't all that great and when you go to look for an apartment thats NOT in the ghetto you are looking at at least $650 or up to $850 a month.. that is just rediculous. Anyone else with me on this, feel the same way?

I hate the courses. I hate the jobs that appear to be available to me (my major is physics). Yet at the same time, I don't know what else I WOULD want to do, should I change my program. I don't really have any interests, or at least any interests that I would want to turn into careers, so don't advise me to "do what I like", because I don't know what that is. I guess what I'm asking is, should I complete the 2 years of classes (+ 4 paid co-op work terms), or should I do something else?
