Default Marine Biology

Hey everyone, thought I'd formally announce that I am now double majoring and the new major is Marine Biology. This hobby has really intrigued me!!!

Im contemplating it aswell, but i LOVE where i live. With that being said there really are no schools in the middle of a land locked state(from an ocean) that would be able to give me a "good" marine bio degree.

I'll probably start out at Cal State San Bernardino for it, but like I did with med school when I really "dive in" Ill transfer to a more fitting School.

Becky, come on you're young! Don't ever let yourself think you are old! Hell my girlfriend is older than you (if your name indicates the year you were born) and she is going to school to become a teacher. She has only one more year!!!! She fights to be "young" every day! You can do it, we will Help!

My dad taught for Texan A & M, in the fields of EMS ops and planning for weapons of mass distruction, terrorisms offensive operations, and NBC classes(Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) on stuff like WMD's. It was more of like a government extension program out of that college though. He went all over the place and for a long time i was going to go there for free when he moved down. However, the program started to die down and that plan got thrown out, total bummer. Needless to say he is one smart cookie. And library Becky, you know you want to do Marine Biology. You are never to old to do something you love.

Sorry, science has never been my thing. I cannot do the math. Finding the info and disseminating it out to others is.
