*peeved*

why does EVERYONE laugh when i tell them that i want to take zoology? is it that funny a course of study?

and no, please do NOT come to me when you want to rear a dog or cat or toad. i mean seriously, is that all everyone's knowledge of zoology - that people who study zoology are 1) crazy over animals 2) have 'working in the SINGAPORE zoo' as their top career choice? it just really annoys me when people portray themselves to be such narrow-minded ignoramuses.

anyways, i was practically dribbling and drooling my way through the Department of Zoology websites of University of Melbourne, Melbourne, australia and University of Otago, new zealand. The one at the University of Aberdeen is also mighty good, BUT BUT i don't think its internationally recognized, PLUS its ultra expensive... 21000 a year plus extras? no thanx. i find it strange that none of the UCs, which are supposedly very prestigious in animal science, have nothing by the name of Bachelor of Science - Zoology, having instead obscure courses like Yiddish and Ukrainian hehe =) Oops don't get me wrong, i am in no way against the learning of Yiddish and Ukrainian, its just weird =) i guess the education systems (and courses) different vastly from country to country to suit each country's particular needs huh?

Check this out too -> Department of Conservation, NZ absolutely THE coolest government department hehe... so far! =) wuahahah *sloshes around in dribble* oh man i am so high on zoology hehehe ok better quit being so overly enthusiastic... and take a look at the course fees! 0_0 hoo boy.
