So today I drove down to my college and finally took the first steps into changing my major. I've been talking about it for a while now as I've been unhappy with English from the very beginning of my college career, even though it's always been my best subject.

Basically the director told me that I had to take a basic Ch Dev class with the school and then I could come back and apply. I took the class, researched and wrote the speech for a pretty badass debate topic, passed with an awesome grade, and fell in love. I have wanted to delve further into the field ever since, but I never actually took the necessary steps. Until today!
I'm so happy I talked to the counselor. I've been feeling incredibly defeated lately, as my grades haven't been impressive (I was too unhappy with what I was doing to do it well), and I felt like I was pretty far behind. But I'm much further ahead than I thought I was, and actually only have maybe two or three more semesters of classes to do before I can graduate - and only because I'm planning to do it a little bit slowly, what with the pregnancy and the new baby and all.

In other news, my bedroom TV is currently hooked up with the one in the living room so that I can watch Netflix without having the Wii hooked up in here - the only thing is, I have to watch whatever's playing in that room. My sister is currently in search mode typing in things like "Tay sucks" (that's me!) and "Barney" and other children's shows. And now we're watching Yo Gabba Gabba. My sister is sixteen.
My family is weird.
Enjoy your innocent little TV shows.

I think it is great you found what you would like to do! How exciting! Well, you should get used to the TV shows because you will be watching them for a while now!!! How nice to find you on VoiceBoks. I'm now a happy new follower, I look foward to learning more about you on this very cool journey you are embarking on!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new baby! And, congratulations on changing your major to something you're passionate about. Life is too short to go to school for something that will not make you happy. I've been in the same boat for a while now, stuck in a career that doesn't making me happy - I haven't yet had the courage to change things.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to voiceBoks!
I am glad you are persuing your interests in school. PS, my family is just as weird I am sure. :)
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe our first party had over 300 links. I have a special give away planned for linkers this week.
Thanks again, hope to see you at the bacon time party every week Friday evenings through Sunday night.
I am following those of you back who asked. Thank you for visiting! :)
ReplyDelete@Kathy: I know, right? I wish kids' shows today were a little less weird. Haha.
@Spilled Milkshake: Thank you! I've been really afraid of being stuck with something I'm not happy about for the rest of my life. I started for English because I was always "good at it" and my dad told me that it's what I should do. Bleh.
@Mindie: Families rock, haha. Thank you for visiting! I will definitely be back next weekend. :)
I just found your blog on Hop A Little Tuesday and am following. Frankly - it's much more refreshing to see a blog that's not doing mindless, endless giveaways, and actually... blogs.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on changing your major. I still need to change mine...

Thank you! I've followed everyone back (always do!) and if I didn't leave you a comment it's because I feel awful just saying, "I followed you back!" Seems like an obligation. I promise to be a good comment-er when I get to read the posts. I'm just all over the place right now. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm now following you through the Be-bop hop.
ReplyDeleteGetting comments is a great boost after spending time writing a post. I feel the same way.
