12 Signs You're A Speech Pathology Major

As you read this article you are either a Speech Pathology major or you know someone who is. Here are 12 signs that you are a speech pathology major.

1. You think of it to be normal to almost gag yourself as you repeat the sounds /k/ and /g/. These aren't the only sounds you produce aloud because it's become natural to produce all sounds out loud.


2. As an speech pathologist, we are detectives and great with puzzles. We put all the pieces together. If you think we do just one thing, you're wrong. We do it ALL!

3. This was your reaction to the girl who decided to get surgery for vocal nodules instead of having therapy in "Pitch Perfect."

4. Since it's almost Christmas break, I felt like this was the perfect gif. This is how you feel after a semester of all the projects, tests, lectures, constant library time, constant late night studying, and more.

5. This is the reaction when you're cramming for a test and when you're RTM (reading the manual) for a patient. Standardized tests just have so much information to cram into our little brains that have so much information in them already!

6. When an underclassman comes up to you and asks you a question that you know the answer to, you feel like you can go on a rant about the knowledge of all the things you've learned. You feel so accomplished and superior!

7. I want to write an email to Microsoft and tell them that "stimulability" is an actual word.

8. After years of classes, you catch yourself listening to your friends and family talking and imitating the way they talk. Sometimes you even correct them out of habit. (Sorry family. I still love you.)

9. When someone asks you what your major is and you say "Speech Pathology" and they have no clue what that is so you have to say, "Speech therapist".

10. Your friends and family might accuse you of being a grammar nazi. Sorry that my professors taught me to be awesome!

11. I feel you Cory Matthews, I feel you.

12. We've all had emotional breakdowns from pure stress, but we're a family and we get through it together.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
