Life and its Crossroads

So it certainly has been a while since I last blogged.

Nothing much has happened.. Exams are coming up, studying profusely.

As a result..

I am stress-induced, although not as stressed as I used to be back home. Or maybe I just don't stress.. I just freak out

Besides being sick AGAIN (I swear I have been sick so many times this semester it's not even funny anymore), I really haven't been doing much.

Classes are alright.. I am trying to do well in Biology. But somehow, I am being restrained from doing so.

BUT ANYWAY

This story begins with me meeting my academic advisor to discuss my schedule for the next semester

Prior to this, my major had been declared as a Creative Writing major.. I know right.. Me? a Creative Writing major? well I have always loved writing fiction-based narratives. Although I do not have the best imagination in the world, I think I do a pretty good job.

Anyway, I told my academic advisor, Mr. Bass (yes that is his name) that I was haveing second thoughts about doing creative writing as a major. And he asked me what would I do otherwise? I told him, perhaps an English-based major.

He told me to do an English major. Well D-uh.. That isn't really that difficult to figure out. But here is where I face a dilemma.

In the English major field, it breaks off into 3 branches
  • English Major specializing in Literature
  • English Major specializing in Teaching
  • English Major specializing in Professional Writing

I am leaning towards English with Professional Writing. However, I do not know what my career options are. I am somewhat interested in teaching, although the pay is not appealing at all.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. PLEASE HELP!!
