Engineering has once again made its way back to the top of my options list for Uni.
I was talking to Mr Eye Candy (He has a gf, so shut up, he is purely eye candy) at work today, and he managed to convince me to consider engineering again.
When I first dismissed it as an option barely a week ago, I had told myself that it would be too much physics, so I might end up hating it. He said that civil engineering, which is what I had been considering, is only basic physics, and more maths which I don't really mind.
I also told myself that since it was so male dominated, I would be a bit ostracised, or have to face sexist stuff (not that I would take it face down). He told me that everyone gets along really well; in fact, since it was mainly guys, there was a lot less bitchiness going on than say, law.
Yeah, as you can see, those were pretty much my only two reasons for not doing engineering, and he basically shot them down in less than ten minutes.
And then if I'm doing engineering, I have to decide what I want to combine it with. The most practical one would be arts, since I applied for a scholarship in that faculty and also because I want to do languages. However, commerce would make me richer. I think my perfect degree would be Engineering/Economics and Social Sciences/International and Global studies.
And then I would have to decide whether I want to go Usyd or UNSW, since they say science-y stuff is better at UNSW.
Maaaaan his 'help' just made my life more stressful. I now have about 10 options all vying for the top spot.
