Some would say that it is selfish to write an article about my crisis of the week and while this may be the case, I think that this is an issue that plagues people my age and I feel an urge to write about it.
As a rising senior, I toured the college that I would attend and I thought I had my life figured out; I chose my school and I thought I knew what I wanted to major in, what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I applied to NC State to be an Animal Science major because I wanted to be a vet. I might still want to pursue that but recently I have discovered that I hate science courses. I love science an have always loved the concepts but college science courses are more difficult than I thought I would be.
I have been struggling with this decision for a few weeks now. I received a scholarship and if I am not in a specific major, I forfeit my scholarship. Even if I could give up the scholarship, I don't know what I want to do. I have always been so indecisive and I feel like this may be the peak of my distress.
I have explored the minds of my friends and of my family and of random people on the internet to try to find advice about the situation and I have come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter. College should be some of the best years of my life and I shouldn't spend what little time I have here worried about what might be. Everything is going to work itself out. If anyone reading this feels the same, know that you are not alone. It is okay to be unsure.
