Majoring in something you enjoy is not worth it if it will make finding a job harder

So that 1 ten page paper turned into a 3-4 page paper, double spaced, and I'm just so happy? Like yeah it's gonna be a hell of a lot of reading this semester, but after all the 10 page and 5(tho it turned to 6 for me) page papers last semester I'm getting a break? But now I actually have to study for exams so there's that lol

Dream Job

So my dream job is to work for Vice as a host and travel and do awesome documentaries. Seriously, I'd be good at it. 

And these vids are seriously sick (sick as in awesome, sick as in the 90's surfer slang).

Watching Once upon a Time on the iPod, reading about Jewish immigrant cowboys in Argentina, waiting for Exploring the world of animals lecture to start. Tis the life I lead.

Thirsty Thursday as an international studies major:

Writing a paper on the role of tariffs and protectionism in India, Japan, China, and Hong Kong, then studying Mandarin till I fall asleep.

Thirsty Thursday as a real major:

Drinking

Name: Peyton Baer ‘19 Major: Politics; International Studies Organization: Department of Public Advocacy Position: Legal Intern Location: Danville, KY Term: Spring 2019

“As a Legan Intern for the DPA Public Defender's Office, I assisted in case research and daily office management. I regularly attended court, jail visits, CJCC meetings, mediations, and case reviews. I have gained extensive knowledge about the criminal justice system throughout this experience. Talking to defense attorneys, prosecutors, and judges in the area have shaped my views on what justice means and how the role of an attorney is to ensure that justice is being adequately met.
