If you're like me... it took you a year (or two) to choose the right major. College felt like wandering around aimlessly like a lost puppy. It takes a little bit of life experience to know what you want to do, that's for sure. Once you do settle into your major, you feel right at home- like you're on your way to being a real adult with a salary job and all that important stuff. School even becomes, dare I say it, exciting! Whaaaat?!
If you’re in this same boat, trust me, I know how you feel, and our favorite characters from Parks and Recreation know just how you feel, too.
1. You actually like... Enjoy class. Weird right?
2. School work becomes easier and you're able to stay motivated.
3. The subject matter keeps you engaged and interested.
4. You want to answer all the questions your professors ask in your core classes, but you don't want to be that person...
5. It's secretly a competition between you and the people in your program to be the all time best. (And as far as they know, you're winning...)
6. You actually feel like you're fulfilling your destiny or something.
7. People can't get you to shut up about how much you enjoy your major.
8. People ask you what you're going to do with your degree and you don't care if they think you're being unrealistic/you won't make money.
9. People compliment you on your skills in the subject matter.
10. For once, you feel like you can have a future and be an adult and junk.
