Honors/AP/Gifted/Talented/Band Student plus Funny
I plan to attend LSU and major in Computer Information Sciences. I enjoy reading, music and (can you believe it) math! I'm a big computer nerd, band geek, and on chess team. I am the trifecta of smart/lameness and proud of it. My favorite things to do are reading and listening to music (at the same time), swimming, or just laughing with my friends. I have been told that I should be a comedian when I leave high school, but I am looking for a more realistic job. For now, my only job will be as a lifeguard and a swim instructor at our local park. I get to do something I love all day and i get paid for it. I was looking for a job that incorporated math and computers and I think that Computer Information Sciences is the job for me. After talking to my friend who is majoring in Mathematics, I am strongly considering changing my Major to Mathematics as well, but I do not know the job opportunities that that will bring.
