/lit/ - Literature

>most intelligent board on 4chan

Comp Sci, because regardless of how awesome english is, I want a job.

>>1756655
>most eloquent, most likely to have a good number of students, friendly, go fuck yourself with a garden rake.

College dropout.

Might go back to school after the army.

Definitely won't be a humanities, English, Philosophy, etc major.

>>1756661
What do you plan on doing after your degree?

I'm personally taking polisci, thinking about law afterwards, but I'm not sure.

I have a BSc in Biology, a GradCert in IT and end of this year, a MSc in IT. Next year: Some PHD, I don't wanna leave this ivory tower

>>1756662
>most eloquent,
nope
>most likely to have a good number of students,
you'd be surprised
>friendly,
BIG NOPE
>go fuck yourself with a garden rake.
sounds unpleasant. I'll pass.

If you would open your fucking eyes and take a gander at the front page you'd know that /i/ is more intelligent than /lit/

>>1756678
Doesn't the army pay for at least part of your tuition?

postgraduate diploma in jam-making

>>1756680
>Never heard of /i/
>Open it
>Bad drawings of boobs

Mhhhhhhhh..........

>>3X drop out here

>>1756683
Impressive.

>>1756691
I wouldn't make fun of jam-making, it is quite the trade. My friend is planning on taking over his families jam-making business. There's money in crushed fruit.

>>1756651
working on an MA, international relations. why do you want to know, anyway?

sitting on a ba in english and history, unemployed as hell, might take the gre next time it comes around, might embark on a life of crime idk

>>1756682
Pretending to be Indian in a call centre ..
Honestly though I don't really know yet. possibly brogramming, though I've heard it's hideously thankless.

>>1756708
IR, cool. Tough to get into at my uni, but I'm going to try. Regarding why I'm asking, just curious I guess. I always imagined this board as a group of starbucks baristas with English degrees. I wanted to get a more accurate portrayal.

>>1756651
British college student studying A levels in Lit, Lang, psych and my personal favourite philosophy.

I have no future plans but to continue pursuing my academic interests and get by, moneywise, by anymeans.

Writing major.

Semester ends in 2 weeks and I'll be getting my 2 year A.A. then transferring to complete.

>>1756729
Hey, if you don't end up rich, at least you'll be well learned.

ideas on how not to drop out of uni?

Eng Lit PHD.
with a minor is sexology and general badassery.

>>1756745
Study
Don't party too much
Have enough money to pay for tuition

That's about it.

Engineering.
It's leaving me with very little time to enjoy literature the way I used to.

>>1756745
be responsible?

Any Canadians here? Michael Ignatieff just accepted a position at my university.

Went to school,dropped out in year ten, moved, went back to school, dropped out in year 12, worked for a couple of years, then went to college to do the equivalent of year 12, and dropped out.

I'm smart, but I am absolutely shit at school.

>>1756747
I took Literary Traditions first year, one of my favourite classes, but I couldn't imagine taking that to a PhD.

>>1756759
Year 12 is highschool right? I'm assuming you're from the UK, what does one do without a high-school diploma for work and whatnot?

Double major in art & English with a minor in Biology. I am a jack-of-some-trades.

>>1756752
yeah, what do you think of toronto?

>>1756774
That's some next-level shit. A vigilante street art performer whom, on days off, recites poetry to their highschool science class.

>>1756787
Love it. A lot of people complain about the impersonality of the classes and atmosphere in general, but I haven't found that. There are a fuckton of asians though, (not that I'm against that, I support every lifestyle choice).

>mfw I'm transferring to UCLA next year

>>1756798
Enjoy your year-long summer semesters and the happiest student body in America.

>Jealous

>>1756795
i didn't write UofT, i wrote Toronto.
Asian is an interesting lifestyle choice, yes.

>>1756795
>being asian
>a choice
what a am i reading

Captcha: Superfine. ustionv

>>1756812
Ah, sorry. Same thing applies though. I grew up in a small farming community, so moving to the city was quite the shock, but it's pretty rad.

>1756818
>a joke
You win a gold star for picking up on it.

>>1756804
I'm more excited for the delicious asian women. The fact that it's the tenth best English school in the country is simply an added bonus.

studying biochemistry at a university that you've never heard of

>>1756843
try me

>>1756839
I hope you aren't brown. Asian women HATE brown people.

>>1756855
>mfw I'm tall and white

>>1756865
I hope you like sushi then ;)

>>1756735
I dont want to be rich, just have enough.

I think happiness is far more important, likely due to my history of depression.

Double Major in Communication & Media and Screen Studies. Yeah, I ain't getting a job (I graduate at the end of next year).

>>1756798
Nice. Have fun! I was gonna go to UCLA but opted for Cal instead. Still have mad love for UCLA though for some weird reason.

>>1757744
Thanks. I never applied to Cal because I wanted to stay close to home. It wasn't until I realized they have the best English department in the country when I realized I probably should have applied....

In a course to get U.E. to start next semester.

When I get there.. Major in History, Minor in English, possibly conjoint with Law.

Doing a B.A in Sociology here. Right now I'm writing an exam on digital culture. My current angle is seeing the participatory elements of the internet as a new arena for hegemonic and discoursive struggle. Sounds good?

ACCOUNTING MAJOR HERE.

drop out major here

>>1757906

Pre-pharmacy major here

Having a job would be nice, but I've seen what kids in pharm school go through, and it's not worth a boring but well paid job.

>>1757880
They do, but it honestly depends on what you're interested in. It's a really well-rounded program, but a bit on the traditional side (heavy emphasis on Milton, Shakespeare, Chaucer, the classics). I think UCLA and even Santa Barbara have more contemporary stuff, which could be more interesting, and I'm almost positive UCLA has a better creative writing program/minor if you're interested in that. I'm a little more interested in modern literature myself, but I still really enjoyed my time here (graduating in two week yeeee) and had some great classes and professors, but I'm sure your experience will be just as awesome if not better if you make the most of it. :)

>>1757907
Lakers are all about dropping out!

>>1757897
Someone once told me that everytime he hears someone say they major in accounting, a small piece of his soul breaks off and dies.

law and international business, we will rule the world with our lit skills

I went to school but I don't go to school anymore, at least not as a student, because one time at university I graduated

>>1757912
Sounds awesome. Having never taken a Creative Writing course before, I'm pretty psyched to try next semester.

>>1757927
>graduated from college
>still visits 4chan

>>1757932
Yeah it surprised me too.

med student in my 4th year

>>1757932
mfw i'm a sterling professor at yale

>(quite rightfully I might add)

son of a bitch

you just ruined my night

>>1757947

if you're going to brag, at least pick a school worth envying

AT LEAST WOOF IS FUCKING DOING SOMETHING INTERESTING WITH HIS LIFE. THE MAJORITY OF KIDDIES HERE NEVER TRAVEL OUT OF THEIR COUNTRY OR EVEN STATE, UNLESS IT'S A SCHOOL TRIP OR WITH THEIR MUMMIES OR DADDIES.

IF I END UP IN CHINA WORKING AS AN ACCOUNTANT, OF COURSE I'LL STILL BE COMING TO 4CHAN, AS LONG AS THERE'S STILL A /LIT/ BOARD.

>>1757954

w00f has a v4g1n4

his vagina is a fucking car wreck, it looks like someone was open-pit mining his pubic mound for genital herpes deposits

when he spreads his legs you literally hear a foghorn blow

>>1757958
I THINK PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME WOOF IS A FEMALE ON AT LEAST THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, MY BRAIN SEEMS TO REFUSE TO TAKE THIS AS FACT AND FORCES WOOF TO BE REPLACED CATEGORICALLY BACK TO THE DEFAULT.

>>1757963

look i dont even know if or how if it's a female or not all i know is they have a vagina and that thing is RUINED

>>1757965

also it smells like fucking shit

Want to work overseas as an analyst; don't care what field.

BA in English Language and Culture, minor in Japanese Culture. Switched to ResMA Study of Art and Literature half a year ago. The level sucks compared to abroad, going to get a International Teachers Training degree after this master and then try for a PhD at any university in England.
