I have two associates degrees, one in Humanities and one in Construction Technology (I have no intention of ever using this, but I was 3/4s complete with the degree when I realized this. It's there if I ever really need work, I guess, since my runs a construction company.)
I'm heading to university now for an English degree, ideally pursuing a doctorate eventually. I want to be a professor, but I'm not really looking forward to teaching outside of a college environment before that.
The only story that really comes to mind is from this most recent semester. I was at a poetry reading in the library for my Creative Writing class, but I arrived late ( I wasn't reading, luckily) so I took a seat off to the side.
Only... where I was sitting was apparently the playing area for a band who was going to be contributing to the event (I had no knowledge of this) and... throughout the event, I had no less than six people ask me if I was the replacement singer.
At first, I thought they were just poking fun at the way I was dressed (long hair, lots of leather and chains, combat boots, etc), but it was only after the musicians started arriving that I realized they were actually serious. Cue embarrassment.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
