Undecided

I used to know what I want to do in college, but now I have no idea. I've realized that I enjoy so many things, and all to different extents. I've made up a list to organize my interests for college, and maybe it'll help me out in the long run =/.

(NOT in order of preference)

Psychology - I'm really interested in the subject. I like to know how peoples minds work and I don't know if it has anything to do with Psych., but I find autism really interesting. I'd want to study it and possibly work with autistic people. Not sure though.

Languages - Picking up languages is so easy for me, and I love it. I enjoy hearing and speaking new languages. Also, I could pick up a career as a translator or something and be able to travel the world. If not, I could just travel on my own everywhere because of all the languages I'd know.

Communications/Media - I hate journalism class, mostly cause of Donnelly, but I love the end results of the class, like seeing my articles and the whole paper with everyone elses articles. It's nice to have. I also like the idea of video editing, which would fall under the media category. I think it's so much fun, but I doubt I'd be able to ever land a good career in it. It would most likely just be a hobby.

Government - It seems really random of me to consider government, and it's nothing I've ever had an interest in before, but after taking a VHS class in it, I've started to enjoy the subject. I want to get more involved in the government, but I don't know if I'd want to be involved for a career, or just as like as a thing I do in my spare time for the community. I'm really on the fence about it.


Right now, I think I'm leaning a lot towards languages. I really want to learn french and arabic, because that would just be awesome. I also want to travel the world and languages would make that easier for me. Also, I could do charity or work with some crazy peace groups or something across the seas and it would be no problem for me because I'd know major languages of the world. Just thinking about it is gets me excited. :)
