8 Thoughts That Will Cross Your Mind As A Science Major

A 60% exam grade? Sick I got the average score!

921

Hint: if you're in my 9 a.m. Friday discussion, I will be sitting in the back corner nearest to the door with an oversized hoodie and a plastic bag.

Being in one of the bigger programs, it's very easy to meet people experiencing your happiness as well as pain, and as a science major, I have plenty of both.

1. How is a 4 hour lab one credit..

Actually though, let me know the reasoning behind this.

2. Where do I even start in the real world?

I love science classes, but a lot of my time is spent doing work that has no push towards any one specific job. I've gone through half of undergrad and have less of an idea what I want to do when I graduate. Yay.

3. Yeah, I have a research position and ____.

media.giphy.com

Internships aren't as big of a thing, it's research position after research position. What am I researching? Honestly not really sure but that's what my job title says!

4. I got the average test grade!

media.giphy.com

We're just not going to focus on the fact it was a 61%.

5. I wish one semester I could have a decent looking Friday.

99% chance it's never going to happen. I guess STEM loves their Friday discussions, as I haven't had a semester yet where I can sleep in on Friday. Unless I ~forgot to set my alarm~, which oddly happened quite a bit.

6. What's my professors name again?

Me on the last day of school trying to do professor reviews. Big classes = never really meeting them.

7. When the hell am I ever going to use this?

media.giphy.com

Okay, so this one is mostly me in any math class ever. The word calculus alone gives me shivers, and even a basic statistics class had me throwing papers around. Let me know why I worked an hour on ONE problem, to come to the conclusion females ages 18-24 prefer vanilla ice cream over chocolate. Thrilling.

8. At least I can go and talk to no one.

Half of my classes are 300 people, so if needed I can come late and just blend in in the back. It's great

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
