    9 Things That Happen When You Go To A Master's Degree In Something Technical From A Liberal Arts Background In Undergrad

    This is what happens when you decide to study something 'technical' in grad school after having majored in something 'useless' during undergrad. NOTE:I'm obviously being sarcastic when I label a Liberal Arts degree as useless, considering that I majored in Psychology. But I also know that there's going to be enough people out there who can't pick up on the blatantly obvious joke that I'm referencing here. Ya know...the one that those so-called "smart and successful" kids in the Engineering departments used to throw around like candy. That's right engineers, I'm calling you out, specifically!

    1. You see things that you haven't had to deal with since like Freshman year of college.

    2. Actually...you end up seeing concepts that you haven't seen since high school even!

    3. Half the people in your classes majored in this stuff during undergrad.

    4. And the other half are probably working REAL jobs, in REAL LIFE, with a REAL career, and making REAL money...also most likely in a related field/industry.

    5. It will make you come to terms with some harsh truths that you'd rather not deal with.

    6. You'll probably question whether or not this is your thing, like every other day.

    7. You're probably going to want to give up half the time.

    8. You're going to get a crash course on what the difference is between a Subsidized Loan and an Unsubsidized Loan...and just how debt works in this country and how much it totally BLOWS!!!

    9. Here's a GIF of some puppies because I didn't want to end it on a bad tone, and because I'm all out of wisdom.
