If 'Stranger Things' Characters Were College Majors

Is your major represented in Hawkins?

If 'Stranger Things' Characters Were College Majors

The second season of Stranger Things premiered last week, and everyone is beyond excited.

Last season was crazy, and we can't wait to see what will happen to Mike, Dustin, Lucas, Will, and Eleven. There are so many unanswered questions. College students are especially excited about this premiere; College students are really not that different from the characters on the show.

While many of the characters are not of college age, here's a guess at what they would major in if they went to university:

1. Mike: Business

The leader of the group, Mike always has a plan. Mike would make a great business major because of his quick thinking, persuasiveness, and ability to make even the worst situations bearable. All of you business majors out there might be a little bit like Mike yourselves.

2. Lucas: Engineering

Lucas is the perfect engineering major. He is resourceful and knows his science. He has perfected the physics of his slingshot and uses a compass to locate the source of the Upsidedown portal with ease. Out of all the kids, Lucas would make the best engineer.

3. Dustin: Culinary Arts

Fun and loveable, Dustin is not only the comedic relief but also the culinary genius. Only a true culinary arts major would know where the lunch lady stashes all the chocolate pudding -- he can also make a mean Eggo.

4. Will: Music

Only a true music major can use music to speak to people, literally. Also, when life was at its worst, Will was still singing. Music majors can agree, music has the power to get you through a lot.

5. Eleven: Psychology

It's obvious, Eleven has been through so much trauma that it's likely she would want to understand how the mind works. She is constantly asking questions to figure out human motives and relationships, making her an obvious choice for psychology majors everywhere.

6. Steve: Undecided

Steve is a jerk for half a season, and a hero the other half. He is obviously still contemplating some pretty deep stuff. Steve is coming around but seems to still be a bit confused about whether he's a good guy or a bad guy.

7. Nancy: Law

Nancy is amazing; she would make a great law major because of her ability to judge people's character. She doesn't start out as a very discerning character, but by the end, she's very aware of people's true natures and has developed great courage. I think all law majors would agree that this is an important skill.

8. Jonathan: Photography

Jonathan loves his camera, even if it gets him in trouble sometimes; it also captures great clues that help the team solve the case. He may be quiet, but his photos speak volumes. Jonathan should definitely pursue photography after high school.

9. Chief Hopper: Justice Studies

Okay, so Hopper is not a kid. He may or may not have already gone to college. Nevertheless, he would be a great justice studies major because he strives to help bring justice to others, even if he never received it himself. Hopper is brave and stands up for what's right, this is what makes him an ideal trusted officer.

10. Joyce Byer: Nursing

Joyce, while crazy at times, cares about everyone immensely. She cares about her son's safety, the safety of the other kids, and the emotional well-being of Eleven. She overcomes scary situations to make sure everyone is okay and goes to extreme means to keep people safe. Joyce is the perfect nursing major because of her love of people and her desire to care for them.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
