His major was archeology or anthropology. Not sure which. I can't keep them straight. I'm not really interested in either topic much, so I don't need to know which is which. He graduated from Indiana University, which is a pretty good school. But, there really isn't much work in Indiana for the field.
I'm a telecommunications major. I guess it's a "hot major" right now (whodathunkit?) but again, not much work in Indiana!
So, after I graduate we are planning to work for a few years and haul it to California to "make it big!"
As for the garlic, my boyfriend's the biggest wimp I've ever seen! He used to hold his nose to eat the garlic. Just chew it fast and wash it down with orange juice. It really worked for him. I don't think the capsules work, or don't work as well, or he would have taken them. He whined every morning when he had to eat it.
He really liked the digging part too. Taking his lunch, getting caught in the rain, panning through the dirt. Yuck.. I'll stick with my trusty camera any day! I remember the stories he used to tell about his instructor though! The man used to pull the van over to pick up road kill! Seems he knew how to prepare road kill and on the last day they even had squirrel chili. Ick. Andy tried it. He said it wasn't that bad. And this is from a boy who won't eat a medium well steak, it has to be well done. I guess he thinks he's a cowboy now or something?? Or maybe the heat got to him? Possibly someone sprayed him with a Deet product? I have no clue.. He sure is strange sometimes but he buys me things so I'll keep him around for a while, if he continues to work :) (I AM JUST KIDDING YOU KNOW!!)
