It's amazing, when you want to get away from your parents, how many noodles you can pick up with your chopsticks and stuff into your mouth. Gosh, eating such big mouthfuls made me feel like Jan Di from boys over flowers...Ughh...
So, my family visited a college today, and later, my parents asked me what I would like to be in the future. And I said computer engineer. Then they spouted off a bunch of random crap and you couldn't tell if they were trying to convince me not to be one, just listing facts, trying to convince me to be a graphic designer, not be a graphic designer, what any of those had to do with each other, how I should actually love graphic design (I don't. I just doodling stuff on photoshop. That's really the reason I took the class...).
Apparently, because my mind leans a bit more to the "artsy" side than the "math and science" side, I can't want to be a computer engineer more than a graphic designer. Why can't I dislike being a graphic designer??? Why can I only "like" engineering, but never be able to "love" it?!? Isn't there something called, "I'm my own person, you're not able to go and tell me what I should and shouldn't like more." So, there apparently is no way in hell that programming appeals to me more, and the totally unpaying unless you get lucky with your skills graphic designer job is better for me? Then, why in the world are they telling me that being an engineer would be horrible since everyone's an engineer nowadays and there are hardly any job openings? Don't graphic designers have even less? Do you see what I mean? What the hell are they trying to convince me about?! It doesn't make any sense!!!
Hmmph. If y'all go like "oh, I didn't think she could ever talk like this", then I will hurt you. I want to go back and add all the curse words I was thinking of when I wrote this. Be glad that I don't, or this post would be twice as long. Hmph. I don't think you understand my frustration. Goodbye.
