    I gave up explaining linguistics as well.

    Before:
    - Hey there, what are you applying for?
    - Linguistics, historical/comparative.
    - The same as your BA and MA?
    - Yeah.
    - So... is that a science or what? How many languages do you speak? You're going to be a translator, right?
    - :AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH:

    After:
    - Hey there, what are you applying for?
    - Languages.
    - Which one?
    - All of them.
    - Cool.

    If it weren't for linguistics, I'd probably go for physics again. Or philosophy. Maybe geology and computer science.

    I tend to change my hobbies now and then. For a couple of months I'm into geology, then I'm into American history, then I'm totally into biochemistry etc. I cannot really settle, there's so much to learn. I cannot imagine myself doing the same thing for the rest of my life, so these hobbies are my sanctuary. Volatility - that's me.

    I'd like to become a Potter.

    If I don't get in, I'll be applying for Hogwarts. If they reject my PhS (philosopher's stone), I'll just go for MA (muggle area).
