I'm not a failure (Look at what I did)

If I can't do anything else, I can get myself through 4 years of school. I know that.

Now, I have to get a "real" job I guess.

Congrats! What's the next step? (you don't need to get a real job )

Do you guys just get degrees as is? Ours are graded?

Any reason it's a BSc as opposed to a BA? (curious)

Bachelor of Science, as opposed to Bachelor of Arts

Yeah, I read that (I don't see it actually saying "BSc" on his degree)

But I've just never seen a music degree that's been a Bachelor of Science, I've only seen them being Bachelor of Arts. Which is all I was asking about

You could say that to pretty much anyone getting a degree these days.

I've got two worthless scraps of paper and I'm currently working towards my 3rd. I fear the real world.

There's nothing wrong with education.

Interesting. What is different in this program that results in a BS rather than a BA?

There must be more sciences courses in the curriculum......?

Yeah... I'm scared to tell my parents I don't wanna to college. I can imagine doing anything else other than playing bass, cause quite honestly I don't really like anything else.

All I'll say is there is a huge market for people who want to sit around all day playing bass. Unfotunately the pay is quite low.

You got the right idea. Marry rich. Find yourself a cougar and let her take care of you.

Meh, my ex fiance was doing that for me when I was in college. It kinda strips away your self-esteem and feeling of self-worth a bit. At least with me it did. YMMV.
