Hello my dears!
Isn't it funny how time flies? Almost exactly three months ago, I wrote an entry talking about how I decided to let go of the feeling of loneliness. Three months ago, I decided that and I can say that it was the best choice I've made in a long time. When I let go of what it felt like to be alone, my life opened up to a whole new realm of possibilities.
But that's not what I wanted to write about.
Over the course of my time at Western, I have changed my mind a multitude of times about what direction I wanted to take my life. When I started, I was dead-set on becoming a musician (which I'm still very proud to be), but then I wanted to be a doctor. But I hate blood. So, I decided I wanted to be a biologist- no, a zoologist. Thankfully, I had a rather unpleasant reminder that I'm actually quite bad at science. Well, not bad. Just average.
If you've known me for a long time, you'll know that I am in no capacity an average person. So why would I resign myself to a career that made me feel less than spectacular?
After much reflection, I finally decided what I wanted to change my major to. I decided to go into a field that I enjoy, that I'm rather good at, and that I can legitimately see myself doing as a career. On Tuesday (maybe Wednesday) I changed my major to English Writing. But that's only because Western doesn't have a major in journalism. I decided to pursue a career that I will both enjoy and do well at.
I'm excited this new chapter in my life and I'm excited to share it all with all of you.
Until next time,
Madi
