All College Majors Are Created Equal

Let's put an end to the battle between the college majors.

With college classes beginning in less than a month, the (often) forced small talk between your family members and friends consists of the typical "so what kinds of classes are you taking?" So then of course the typical reply is something super specific like, "Oral Interpretation of Literature" which then warrants the response "huh?" from said family member/colleague. The same conversation is also common between your very own college friends, specifically those college friends who are majoring in something different then yours.

As a communication major myself, long story short, I am very familiar with how to prepare a speech and how the media influences life. On the other hand, some of my closest friends who are science majors are experts at whipping out a lab report two hours before it's due and have all the parts of the cell ingrained into their brain. Obviously, these subjects are extremely different when it comes to the material taught in class.

Although extremely different, both of these majors are just as difficult as the other.

I will reiterate this for the skimmers: All college majors are created equal.

I've often gotten into multiple arguments with my classmates about 'who's major is better.' It's time to halt the battle of the majors and appreciate each major for what it offers.

To the humanities majors: write your essays and keep killing those weekly presentations.

To the business majors: keep on top of those financial numbers and work hard on those fresh innovations.

To the natural science majors: the rest of us are trusting you to know how to replace our knees when the time comes and mix all those things together to create awesome things.

To the mathematics majors: may God be with you.

To the art majors: thank you for providing us with wall decorations and for taking our graduation pictures.

At the end of the day, we are all college students and we can all relate to the struggle of procrastination and the seemingly unending amount of homework. So rock on into the bright future that's patiently waiting for each and every one of you.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
