so....here's the thing
As probably almost none of you know, because I've kinda fallen off the map and because I just posted it on facebook, I am pretty damn sure I'm changing majors. I just learned you can minor in photojournalism now, and I have all the classes one would need for that...after this semester. I want to change my major to General Studies, because 1. I'm not really going to do anything with my degree anyways, since I'm going to culinary school after college. 2. I CANNOT STAND MY PHOTOJ PROFESSOR. She is a horrid teacher, and I will be glad to be rid of her. and 3. part of me wants to stay in Kent a little longer, help out the baby 'mos a little more, and because I don't know if I am ready to go into the real world yet. I mean, it'll probably just be another semester or two, so it's not too terrible. (I hope) I don't quite know what to do yet, because I don't know who to talk to about changing my major to general studies, because there is no college of general studies. It's more of something that the student creates for his/her self. I don't know if this is the best idea, but I mean...it won't hurt. I am going to try to find an advisor that isn't my photoj teacher, because she is the reason I can't go on with photoj. I just can't stand her at all. I don't want her to completely ruin photography for me, she's already helped me hate photojournalism. (It's not all her fault, it's mostly mine, but I really don't like her as a human being, so she gets the written blame) and I just want to do what is right for me. I want to study what I want to study, and I want to get a degree with it. I am scared about the job market without a specialized degree, but if I choose wisely, I can mix and match things that I already have into something that will help me in the long run. but yes....I don't know. It's scary making this change, but I feel like it's something for my own sanity, and something good for my life.
Also, what is up with my friends letting things get between them? It makes me sad that "F" and "M" can't just put their pride aside and negotiate on something that is ruining more than just their friendship. They are hurting others' friendships too, people that shouldn't be pulled into the middle of it all. He has no reason to get in the middle and he doesn't want to get in the middle. (if this is vague, it's because I am purposely making it so) Just get over yourselves and be humans towards each other. And to my other friends that are letting silly things and misunderstandings get in the way of a friendship that has lasted quite a while, get over it. If you lose someone over something silly, it's going to hurt once you realize that your pride is getting in the way of meeting and holding on to real friends. People are growing up all around you, why don't you join them?
PS- unless you are one of the letters I am speaking about (and neither of them have LJs, so it doesn't matter) I am NOT talking about you. I am talking in general, because everyone does it (including me) and I am just kinda over seeing my friends get into stupid fights about nothing other than their refusal to see anything from anyone else's eyes besides their own.
