Not dead, kinda? I have a question
7 years ago
General
My tablet is still being a cunt and to be perfectly honest I haven't had the energy or patience to really sit down and fix it. I have three more days of vigorous testing starting tomorrow, plus what I need to make up because of how sick I got on Wednesday and subsequently missed two tests. But I'm less stuffy today, going to relax, get makeup work done and going to see Infinity War in a few hours.
But I have a totally unrelated question, just out of curiosity and to stay somewhat active. What do y'all do for a living, what's your dream job, or what are you studying for?
Now, I'll be officially enrolled in college next fall, and I always knew that my major is going to be oriented around English, Linguistics, Sociology, or Psychology. I adore all four, but I haven't been (Still not super) sure about what exactly I wanted to do with any of those four fields. Not to mention, I also really like entomology and biology. However, one overarching field I have always been enamored with is forensics, which obviously also encompasses forensic entomology and psychology. Over the weekend I was dying in bed watching Forensic Files and I discovered a case in which forensic linguistics was used, which was pretty exciting to learn about.
I'm still not exactly sure what I'm going to go into career wise, but I feel like it will probably orient around the forensic field.
As for what I'm doing now, I'm a bit inhibited when it comes to getting a (real) job because I'm not quite mentally capable of working in a fast food place or anything very high-paced, nor can do I have a car to even reach a possible job site. I know my college offers student jobs, and the one I REALLY want is to work in the library, which also happens to be my childhood library. Librarian is a pretty ideal occupation for me, and I wouldn't mind being a librarian full-time if I don't go into forensics.

FA+

Realistically though, I just look for jobs that pays my rent and bills atm.
Graphic design and medical drawings are also neat, but my issue is that while I can do very precise, anatomic drawings, it's not as fun.
Yeah I feel you! Graphic design and marketing is kinda like that? I mean it's fun but it's a different satisfaction for me. The medical drawings are a different fun, but I have such a narrow scope of what I'd like to draw precise like that I don't think it'd work out for me.
