The Major Change
https://business.financialpost.com

Ever heard that it is okay to change your major? I am sure that people have told you that most people change their majors once or twice before they graduate. Well, I never thought it would happen to me, but it did. At the start of school, my freshman year I was so set on having my major picked and had this grand idea that I am going to study this major, love it and then make a career out of it. Well, that didn't really happen... so flashed forward to the start of my sophomore year I have changed my major and I am actually really excited. I went from History to Hospitality I know a bit of a change. Not going to lie to your guys it was not an easy thing for me to do. I went into college thinking that I don't want to change my major. That if I changed my major if meant that failed not only myself but also the people that had supported me when I first made my decision to study history. The hardest part in switching my major is that fact that I don't know a single thing about the field of Hospitality, but I guess that is what school is for right? One thing I did find out is that I am afraid of change. I like my bubble my bubble is safe it's where I know nothing changes. So switching into a major that I didn't know a single thing about was scary for me, but it got me out of my bubble. Change can be scary and it is normal I know it is easy to stay in your bubble, heck I have been doing it. You see though it is not the idea that the bubble is breaking it is the idea that the bubble is expanding you are adding more things to it does pushing its boundaries every day. That thing that might scare you one day might be the thing that makes your life perfect or even better. So don't be afraid of change, after all, if we were afraid of change then the world would never change.

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.

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.
