Your Major Explained in GIFs

Adult: So what are you majoring in? Have any plans for graduate school?

Me: You know, that's a really fantastic question. Funny story actually...

If you're in college, or are soon to be a college student, you've most likely have had this conversation with a fellow adult. You might know what you want to study, or you just might not have a clue of what you want to do. Because the age of 18 is the perfect time that life wants to know exactly what you want to spend the rest of your life doing, along while figuring out how you're going to live without your mom and dad post college... Oh no...

Check this out to see what your major says about you.


Communications

You live for the latest news about anything and everything! You are all about living in the present and voice your opinions whenever you can. If talking were a subject in school, you'd be on the Dean's list. The confidence you have will help you go far in this field!


Philosophy

While your friends are out dancing on tables and playing beer-pong, you're zoning out trying to answer life's most complex questions. Arguing with you is pointless, because no matter how much debate you have with your friends, you always tend to win. Everyone thinks you get Confucius and Socrates, but in reality you're just a really good smart-aleck.


Business

Let's face it, you look cute in a pantsuit with a coordinating briefcase. You love working in group projects and enjoy talking to people. You know what you want and how to get your way by persuading people within 30 minutes. Work hard play hard, my friend.


Physics

Let me start by saying... HOW?! You're knowledge level of math is ridiculous. You're goal in life is to figure out how everything in the universe works, by the means of mathematics. You honestly could be one of those people who apply physics to every day activities and go viral for it.


Nursing

You're friends go to you for any medical related concern they have. Nursing school is TOUGH. But somehow between all the stress you are under, you love it because you know in the end that it'll all be worth it. Your family always asks, "Why not just be a doctor?," and all you're trying to do is leave for your clinicals at 4 in the morning. True respect for nursing students and all those in the medical field!


Psychology

You're the person among your friends that gives good advise. Your friends go to you, because they know you're a great listener, regardless of the problem. You tend to think about why people act the way that they do. You get why Jason drinks a lot, and you get why Becky can be so rude at times.


History

You already knew your senior thesis the minute you graduated high school. You're all about informing people about global issues and are always up-to-date with the latest CNN news. To you, a history textbook is your go reading, as tweens love the Twilight series. Because you'd rather know the OG story of Edward Cullen's past.


Fashion Design/Fashion Merchandise

New York Fashion Week is what you think heaven looks like. You express yourself through the creative art form of fashion and are always dressing cute and trendy. Your friends look to you for fashion advice when going out, to always make sure you all look your best. In the words of fashion mogul Coco Chanel, "I don't do fashion. I am fashion."


English

You love reading books, and can be considered a grammar police in your group text with your friends. You get why the author or poet chose to use a blue sweater to represent the agony of life. Others consider writing essays to be a pain, you get the essay done within an hour. Whether papers are MLA, APA, or Chicago style, you love it all. I'll just be here, sticking to Chicago-style pizza.


If you don't know what you want to exactly study in the last few years of your education, it's okay to switch your major once or twice! Turn your passion into a career that you'll enjoy!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

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.
