    I get curious about these things. And as an aside, i'm rather curious as to whether or not anyone else here is attending in Fargo. it gets lonely up here..

    Anyway, to answer my own thread, I'm studying towards a degree in Botany. Plants all the way!

    I'm going to have some kind of combonation of dual majors and dual minors in international studies w/ politics concentration, Latin American studies, Islamic and Arabic Studies, and Romance languages. Probably the majors will be IS and LAS while the minors will be the others.

    Right now, I'm still in high school. The direction I'm going right now is "Economy and society", even though that's not really what I want to do when I'm older.
    When I finished high school, I can go to university. In Holland we have different "levels" of high school, and only when you finished the highest level you're able to go to university. Else, there's other stuff... I don't know much about it though!
    Anyway... I don't know if I want to go to college, something that has to do with either art or music's more my thing...
    If I'd go to college I'm almost sure it'd have something to do with the English language, but I don't know if I really want to do that..
    I'll see!

    A BS in psychology would mean you could get your masters in psychiatry...I THINK.
