Regretting my decisions

Jan 10, 2012 12:45


Another semester and another 4 months of having no life. Like I really had one before

This is the first time I've dreaded going back to school after a break. I made some pretty bad decisions for classes this time around. After the first two days I realize that maybe history isn't my thing, sure I like and it interests me but I'm not as analytic as they expect me to be nor am I a brilliant critical thinker. Wouldn't you know I signed up for 2 courses that expect me to write perfect papers of this nature in order to pass and both are crucial to my major.

I like facts. I like being able to whip out some useless piece of information and impress people. I like being right.

BUT

I am not argumentative, if you trying to argue with me over something I would give in and agree with you. I suck at expressing my ideas in an organized manner. I am the least persuasive person on the planet. Therefore I suck at academic writing.

I picked history because I was under the impression that only people who aspired to write textbooks and be scholars would have to write stuff like this. I just want to work in museums, where does writing coming in for that?

I need to find a new major!

I need something that doesn't involve complicated Math or expect me to write a lot (fine I'll say it: I'm lazy!)

Any suggestions for a new major? Anyone?

rant, school, life
