I get these random moments when I get really obsessed with university and my future. I have some booklets of universities that I got at the beginning of the year which I flip through quite often. I've decided on what university I want to go to, which is my local one because it's nice and the most affordable option. If I were rich I would go to a really nice one across the country but that's just unrealistic and I'm more than happy to go to the local one.
I've had a lot of trouble deciding my major and it's between two. See my issue is that I love both science and English which are obviously two things that don't go together so I can't do a combined major. Since they are different faculties that will give me different degrees it's quite hard for me to choose. It's not like I'm deciding between chemistry and biology which both give you the same type of degree because that would be a lot easier to choose. I have about half a year until I have to apply which is scary, especially since I'm so torn up. People always say follow your passion but I love them both and they would both make me equally as happy. Honestly, I'm leaning towards science basically for three reasons.
Number 1: I'm able to do an exchange with it so I would be able to live in a different country for a year while still continuing with my studies.
Number 2: there are Co-ops available so I would be able to work and gain experience while studying.
Number 3 I would probably have better luck getting a job with a science degree than with an English degree.
Although I will most likely go into science, my passion for English is making me doubt myself and I'm wondering if maybe English would make me happier. I don't know. I still have some time so I'll ponder it during the summer before I have to make any real decisions.
