I should be working but no one has really arrived yet to edit their portion of the stanford bulletin so I am workless by circumstance rather than by choice. I 'm getting really excited about moving to UC Davis. I think it will be a great place to spend the end of my undergrad years, in a cute small town, living in a nice friendly bubble. Then later I can move to the big bad city. I'm really excited about my change of major as well. I decided to major in evolution, ecology, and bidiversity, which is in the school of biological sciences. I'm still majoring in English as well, so I'm technically doing a double major. I still love English but I have kind of grown bored of subject...there are just so many subjects that interest me especially in the sciences. If I could I would minor in astrophysics, but I cant have a double major and a minor :( I'm still not sure what kind of career I want. I know I want to do some graduate study/research in the biological sciences..maybe marine/or oceanography. I was also thinking about a career in enviornmental law. Being a college prof. still appeals to me. I know I want a career in academia. I just want a job that is exciting and that has the power to make a difference.
I also applied to join a sorority. I was never really big on school spirit in highschool, I never went to a game or was a member of any club. But I want to have a different experience at Davis. I feel like there are alot of things I haven't tried and I'm not the most social person, so I know the only way I'll get to do these things is if I'm in a club that is forcing me to be social. I love going camping and on snowboarding trips. I really love to try new things, but if it comes down to it, I'm not going to be the person that gets everyone to go. I need someone to push ME into action. So yea I think a sorority will be fun, but I hope it isn't too "mean girls" cuz I'm not really like that...
