Advertising with a minor in Business Administration. Plan to return for an MFA in Studio Art. Doesn't that just have everything to do with teaching and living in Japan!

My BA was in history, with a minor in Asian studies, and my MA was supposed to be in East Asian studies--unfortunately, I quit after doing all the classes but before writing the thesis. Crying or Very sad I'm currently halfway through a TESOL certification.
