Logocentric (adj). Regarding words and language as a fundamental expression of an external reality (especially applied as a negative term to traditional Western thought by postmodernist critics). Sometimes I just write whatever I feel like. Other times I respond to prompts, many taken from the following places:  "The Soundtrackers Group"  "Blogging Circle of Friends " "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise" "JAFBG" "Take up Your Cross" Thanks for stopping by!  |
 Prompt #46: If you could go back and change your major in college, what would it be? If you never went to college, would you go back if you could? If so, what would you want to study? With the qualifier that I'm actually quite happy with my film studies/production major in college, I sometimes wonder what my life would be like with a different kind of career. From a pure interest and fascination standpoint, at one time I considered majoring in architecture, journalism, or business. The last one probably would have been the most relevant to the type of career I ultimately ended up in, which focuses on business administration and organizational/project management. If I was going to completely restart, though, and pick an entirely different career from what I'm doing now, I'd most likely go into some kind of public service job, so I imagine a degree in public policy/administration, international studies, political science, urban planning, etc. would probably be where I'd focus my studies. I'd even consider a job in the legal field, which I swore I'd never do after working so many years in entertainment law departments. But, honesty, I think that's because transactional law where you're negotiating personal services agreements doesn't really appeal to me. I'd get bored arguing over the nuanced language of how much money someone is going to be paid, or what perqs they have for the days they're shooting in whatever filming location. But I do kind of naturally have the type of mind that works well with legal language. I'm very process oriented, organized, and focus on the details of specific phrasing and language usage; I could see applying those skills in a legal arena of some kind, but I think it would be in something like civil rights, constitutional, immigration, or international law. I could see myself working on court cases for a prosecutor's office, or redlining a piece of legislation to incorporate an elected officials' policy positions. I would also want to supplement that with a minor (or two), just because I really enjoy learning things. I think it'd be fun to have some sort of professional training in the culinary arts or, if my major course of study didn't have an international component to it, taking some sort of international studies as a minor, to learn more about the world around us, or at least a small part of it. |

Not many of those around here. Who's your favourite team/driver? My favourite, Valtteri Bottas, doesn't have a seat for the 2025 season. I'll be hoping for Hamilton, Piastri and Tsunoda to be successful this season, though I also like Alonso and Leclerc.
