I write all kinds of stories. I like them to be imaginative without falling into some genre ghetto.
I don't do much fiction reading any more. I think I'm stuck in life, and I need to get a girlfriend and go through all that stuff so I can re-enter the community of man.
Cal is a bad environment for writers. People here aren't very creative (unless you count asian acapella as a creative act), and the whole campus feels like it's stuck in 2007.
Off topic but here I go: there was an user in one these threads who talked about having studied fine arts as an undergraduate and finance as an postgraduate - are you still lurking?
UChicago here
People like this are why I hate yuppies.
I dropped out of college to go learn and see things it was nice
Yea man I'm always here, watsup?
You can never get a real education without going to college, you will forever be a stupid dumb ignorant non-educated moron. College educated intellectuals are inherently superior to stupid dumb highschool educated scum.
This is what people actually believe.
Did you know, before the internet, you physically had to go places?
I don't think anyone could blame me for dropping out of journalism school pre-nu media boom.
Didn't want to make a separate thread for this question so I'll put it here
Where are places to get advice on getting into a masters program or grad school in general? Let's say I'm switching specialties in a major/poor gpa/no letters of rec and am considering taking courses after I get my Bachelors to strengthen my background, where should I go to ask around about if this is a good idea?
