I AM CHANGING MY MAJOR!!! I know you guys are probably wondering why you should care, but it is important. I was a Biomedical Engineering, Pre-Med major, but now I am just Biology, Pre-Med. This decision was really hard to make, but ultimately, it was one I am happy I made.
Being an engineering major was killing me. There were classes I had to take that I could give two fucks about, I was stressing and depressed all the time, and most importantly, I wasn't happy. It took me a little while, but I realized that my happiness is more important than anything else in the world.
So, now I am a biology major, still pre-med. I will be able to take classes in genetics, medicine, etc, and areas that really just interest me more than Biomedical Engineering dead. Also, and this is the thing I am happiest about, I will have time to take more arts and humanities classes!!!
Not having any creative classes this semester killed me. I realized that as much as I love science, I love arts and humanities just as much. I'm thinking of minoring in creative writing, religion, I don't know, something that I really love and am passionate about.
So how does this affect y'all? Well starting next school year, I'll have more time to read, blog, and basically do all the things I love doing. I will be able to start living a litter more. One step at a time though. I still have about a month left of this school year, so I've got to finish it out. I don't know what I'm doing and whether or not I will have time to really read, but it will definitely still be better than the hell I've been through.
Good for you for making yourself happy! Good luck in your new program, creative writing seems like a fun thing to minor in now that you have the time :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm really excited to do creative writing.
DeleteYAY! :D I was always wondering how you managed doing Biomed Engineering, because for me, I know that Biomed Engineering would have killed me! Changing to just biology sounds awesome - I'm so glad you're doing what makes YOU happy! :D
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah, it's definitely not for everyone, and thank you!
DeleteI'm so glad you're doing what's best for you!! You definitely made the right decision; everyone needs time for fun sometimes! I hope this next year is a much better experience :)
