The Excitement There Is To Finding Your Major

I have finally finalized my major and switched it for the LAST TIME. And I am so excited to dive deeper into it.

The Excitement There Is To Finding Your Major

Throughout my college career, I have been juggling between so many different interests of mine. When I was a freshman, I saw myself in behavioral analysis. I wanted to be the next Emily Prentis or Spencer Reid. After taking more classes about the criminal justice system, I realized what I really was interested in was the human mind. Because of this, I decided that psychology would be a better fit for me. I started really diving deeper into the major and I realized that this was not the field I wanted to be in either.

I was so frustrated because nothing seemed to fit what I wanted to do. I couldn't even describe what direction I wanted to go in because every option I thought was the one for me, was not. I finally came to the realization as to what my true passion is, working with people. I love understanding people and using that understanding in order to navigate working with them. I gained a whole new confidence this past year and I really loved talking to people. I like to make people's day in little ways and handle difficult people really well. This lead me to take my first hospitality course and from that point on I knew this is what I have been waiting for.

That feeling when you do not even have to try and pay attention or motivate yourself to go to class. You are so drawn to what is being taught that it sparked excitement in me. Now, my major has officially been changed for the last time and I am taking my first full schedule of hospitality courses in the fall. I can not even begin to describe how content I am with decision I made and I am so excited for my future in this field! I truly feel like the world is my oyster with this field and it will benefit having me on board!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
