I've changed majors...
It all started with this conversation I had with my advisor where she told me, though I don't remember how it came up, that although I wasn't in sports, etc. that wasn't what mattered to me and so I shouldn't do what I don't like to do just for college.
What mattered to me, she said, was human relationships, like spending time getting to know people and helping them, spending time with my teachers, talking to my old friends from Conserve... and she was right....
And I do like helping people and I'm not competitive...
Then I saw Nip/Tuck and it was an episode in which a plane crashed and people needed medical assistance and I thought, gee, that's what I should do- help people- save lives- personal relationships with patients- as soon as possible...
And so now I am going from International Business and Chinese to Nursing and French so that I can maybe one day join the Red Cross or the Peace Corps and go to French Africa to help people. Maybe I could even go help the soldiers in the war some day.
Maybe meet a soldier... Pierre or Fabritzio or John or Gabriel... meet someone...
I realized my greatest personal dream for myself is to meet a nice guy, maybe down south where manners are still obided... settle down, have a family... I want to love someone so much and have them love me the same way but I don't know what will come of me... but I will live- I will save lives and help people and they'll remember me... I hope....
