Teaching was held back my wankers in my school and poor discipline. I actually spent a brief couple of weeks before grades were finalised in a higher math class than i should have been in.

>That feel when you look like a bigot and most high school seniors are 18.

Also, I think I may know what I want to do. I'm thinking of going into clinical psychology, or psychiatry. The pay is good, and I'm interested in the subject. I want to go into forensics as well, maybe work at an institute for the criminally insane.

BUT. I just looked at the idea of law enforcement (I mean detective or something that has to do with psychology in law enforcement), or even FBI, and it seems very interesting.

I don't know what to do. D:

This is after all of them went to a different college that I didn't get in to.
