As spring has bloomed, I was noticing all the beautiful flowers around campus here in Charleston, South Carolina. What really got me thinking was how each individual flower has specific characteristics that make it so unique. Well so do college majors.
1. Education - sunflower
There is no flower that can light up someone like a sunflower. Similar to that of an education major. Education majors tend to be very bright and creative people.
2. Psychology - lilies
The Lillies are created with volume, are effortless, and exotic. Psychology majors are people filled with volume. Their minds are always racing with thoughts based on research or experiments while they are effortless in their drive to succeed. There minds are often exotic. Psychology majors have to be exotic in their minds to come up with brilliant ideas.
3. Business - orchid
The Orchid is one of creativity and complementary. As business majors, you must be creative in your ideas and developments while complementary in your style.
4. Music - amaryllis
This flower is beautiful, gets overlooked, and comes in many colors. I chose this for a music major because I feel as if the music is a major that can be sometimes overlooked but is more in-depth than a person suspects. Music is beautiful, and can come to make someone feel many different emotions, ones that can be reflected by color.
5. Nursing - hydrangea
Hydrangeas are fresh and beautiful. Although the nursing major is a tough one when you finally get to that position you are going to bring freshness and beauty into wherever you may be working. Patients are going to look to you for guidance, emotional support, and to instill confidence.
6. English - daffodils
Daffodils are the type of flower that can make someone smile. With the reading and writing skills of an English major, you are likely to hear empowering words from them, maybe a quote they like, or an inspiration to read a certain book. English majors are for sure to put a smile on your face.
7. Journalism - tulips
The tulip is one great for any occasion. As is a journalism major. Need some insight for a paper, book, blog, or anything along those lines? A journalism major would be happy to help. One who has a creative and beautiful mind, aspiring to get a word out, write about anything imaginable from any occasion.
As you can see, flowers can be placed simply as college majors. When we look at these beauties this spring think about how a flower gets to be a flower. Look at the shape, color, growth, and scent. What does it remind you of?
