Me: "I'm studying English."
Most other people: "So you're going to be working at mcdonalds/ starbucks/ other low paying job?"
It really annoys me that there's this stereotype that English is useless and you just end up working unrelated jobs if you study it. People seem to think that about Arts subjects in general. My thoughts are that if you have a plan and you know what you need to do to get into a relevant industry (internships for example), it is not a waste of time.
