    For those of you doing Arts (seems to be a lot on here)....what career do you want out of it?

    I know lots of people are going to jump on the bandwagon with the usual "Arts and career in the same sentence? Ha ha!" and all that malarkey....but seriously, I'm interested.

    Yeah it does sound like you're taking the piss allright.I'm in third arts and it's just boring and stupid at this stage with people always going 'Huh arts degrees you can get one of them in the jacks' But seriously I'm intereste?! why are you compiling a report? There are many career opportunities available with an arts degree depending on the subject choices, look at the prospectus if you're that interested.

    I'm doing Arts. 2nd yr UCD History and Politics...

    And since you ask; No. I have absolutely no f**king idea what the hell I'm gonna do when I leave college. That would require forethought that I'm just not capable of...

    But meh, I'm havin' a laugh right now, and that's all that matters!
