I've considered getting a minor in that at some points. But it wouldn't be good for much unless I got a full on PhD sometime after.

Once you get to college you can curse as much as you want, really :p

It really depends on how chill the professor is though. Some of my professors were cool with cursing, others were not.

You're you. What happened sucks, but I hope it doesn't define you.

Nevertheless I am really sorry to hear that happened to you.

Yeah, that's true, but, for some people, not drinking means they are able to handle stress well and that they have strong mentality.
