(ruefully) You're probably smarter than I am. As a math major whose worst subject is math (in that it takes me the most time to understand, though I have a 4.0 in my major...mainly through blood, sweat and broken pencils), problem sets take me forever to do. If I were a history major I'd be breezing through classes...but I'd also starve in the next 10 years. Decisions, decisions. I have to figure out whether I want a doctorate in math or a master's in education; the former will undoubtedly kill all remaining free time. (It is a known fact that all the hotel administration majors at Cornell have way too much free time. ) Also, it's a matter of priorities--fido is pretty low on my personal list, after writing, conlanging (and participating in the relevant listserv--hosted by Brown U.), live gaming, boyfriend, reading, classes, and a web-based play-by-email campaign, not necessarily in that order. :-) How many of y'all prefer distance roleplay to live roleplay, or v.v.?
