I started as marine Bio, realized that While I'm great at biology, I fail at chemistry and that art was what i really wanted to do with my life.
I left UH after some massive errors on behalf of the school administration, and because the art department was literally falling to pieces.
Literally, the easels were destroyed and the walls were crumbling.

Funny i was wanting to get in that field too.
But once i heard the lab was 90% of your time i bailed on that.
And that sucks thier Art Dep. was doing so poorly.

I love labwork. I will gleefully clone microorganisms or count sponges for field transects, or all that really boring grunt work.
I just don't know my ethanol from my alcohol or what the hell benzine does.
It really is a pity because they had GREAT professors there.
