So, after a lot of thinking I've narrowed it down to a few different majors for college. I'm still super indecisive so I might end up doing something totally different. I don't know if I've ever mentioned it before but I've always been fascinated with sharks and all other marine life so I've thought about majoring in marine biology. The only thing is that I wasn't that great at biology in high school. But at the same time it's something I like so even if I wasn't that at it, it might me worth it to go after. Now as I'm writing this I'm starting to consider it too. Damn, I need to make up my mind. As for graphic design, I've always loved animated movies and design so an animation degree would be great. I said graphic design because I found a college nearby me that has a degree that is offered online or on campus that is graphic design with a specialization on animation and motion graphics. I would probably get my associates through them and then transfer to a 4 year university and get a bachelors degree in animation. The other option is cosmetology. I've always love makeup and liked hair a lot but I'm just not sure about it. Mainly because the college I go to has the most HIDEOUS uniforms you have to wear and the salon is a blast from the past, it literally looks like you took a time machine to 1980 and then went into a salon. I know it's so superficial and snobby but it's just all so ugly and dated. It's like my OCD and interior designer in me wants to redo everything. Plus I've seen what 99.9999% of the rest of cosmetology students get to wear, what they want as long as it's black or white. You get to be fashionable while learning something you're passionate about. I've also really been into fashion lately so I've kind of considered maybe doing fashion design but it's more just a hobby as of right now. As for interior design, I'm still really interested in it and haven't ruled it out completely but I'm more interested in animation or cosmetology right now. Every few months I swear I change my mind on what I want to do with my life. I think I won't really know until I actually start learning one more in depth. Like I took a computer graphics course in high school and really liked it and I've done peoples hair and makeup for stuff like homecoming and prom and I cut my own hair most of the time but I've never learned the proper way. I don't know, sometimes I just wish someone would tell me 'Here, this is what you're going to study and do for a living. It's something you'll be successful at but also enjoy.' If only life were that simple and easy. But hey, free will is great and I'm so grateful that I live in somewhere that I can do whatever I want and don't have to be forced into anything. I was more saying it'd just be easier for me at this point since I can't make my mind up. Wow, that turned into an interesting rant. Anyway, I'm starting to figure out things that I'm really passionate about and what I might enjoy doing for a living. I may decide something and then switch majors but in the end I know I'll choose the right thing and be happy. If you have any advice or just want to share your experience when deciding major, let me know down below, I'd love to know.
