english

i forgot to tell everyone that i finally changed my major - officially - to english.

for the past year i've just been telling people that i was an english major whenever it suited me since it meant that i could win an argument. okay, it never actually meant that, i just tried to win by saying, 'hey! i'm an english major, i should know what's right.'

it never really worked since i always got a response like 'are you really, matti? really?'

to which i would have to respond that no, i wasn't.

it probably didn't help that i called myself a psychology major when that suited me. i seldom, if ever, won arguments this way but i felt like i would.

anyway. i am now, officially, an english major. as such i can - officially - claim to know things because i am. unfortunately, i can no longer say that i know things because i am a psych major.

'i used to be a psych major' just doesn't carry the same weight.

*sigh*

don't worry. you still won't win any arguments with me.
it's good to know that the earth still spins in the same direction.

just because you don't acknowledge when i win, doesn't make it so that i don't.
