I don’t know what I want my major to be. See what I did there?
How does one decide?
How can you pick just one major?
I’m only worrying about this right now because I have nothing else to worry about. Well, nothing major to worry about.
Except for the fact that there’s snow on the ground in April. It’s spring.
Canada is a weird country, sometimes.
We still have a bit of snow here, too. It’s slowly melting.
Picking a major is tough… there are so many things you want to do and want to learn, but you just can’t. There’s not enough time and there’s not enough money. I just you just have to ask yourself, out of all your options, which one can you see yourself doing for the rest of your life happily?

What a great way to start spring.
Exactly. That’s a good question to ask.

It’s definitely tough to think about. I could rattle off a ton of majors I would love to do. However, I know I’ll never use the degree, so it would just be a waste of time and money. The extra knowledge would be a plus, though.

Me too. Sigh, I’ll have to settle for reading about other things that interest me and major in something I truly enjoy.

That’s the way to do it. Good luck. 🙂

Thank you for the advice.

I agree. My best advice would be talk to your advisor, or someone in the career center at your school.

I have to choose my university courses as I apply (although the application closes in January, so I don’t understand why my parents are being so anal about it!). I want to apply for Creative Writing, but no, they say, what are you going to do with that? But I don’t want to study just English, I say, because I want some creative writing. Or maybe- No, they say. Ugh, university is driving me mad and I haven’t even picked a course yet so perhaps I’m not the best person to give advice. But, I would suggest creating something like a mind map or a table or whatever your thing is and doing pros/cons of each major. It’ll help you to sort out your own thoughts even if it takes a while longer to choose your major.

Oh no. I would hate to have to choose my courses so early on in the process. Creative Writing sounds so fun, but I hear you. People don’t think it’s of any use although I beg to differ. I hope you are able to take at least one writing course in university. If not, is it possible you could join a creative writing club or something similar at your school? Same here. I’ve been thinking of selecting English as my major. Then again, I want to be writing my own stories and novels, not just reading other people’s. Mmm I’ve done that to narrow down which school I want to go to. Time for me to make more pro/con lists. 🙂

I completely agree with you with all of what you’ve said! Perhaps I should do pro/con lists too…

It’s tough. I loved music and originally picked that as my major, but changed it to psychology a year or so later. Sometimes I wish I had stuck it out, other times I wish I had done creative writing and literature. It’s not easy, so I truly empathise. 🙂

Interesting. Sometimes I wish I only had one interest. Then I wouldn’t be so torn. 😛 Now I’m wondering if I should major in psychology. Thanks a lot. 😉
