Why You Should Absolutely 100% Change Your College Major
"I AM NOT A NUMBERS PERSON!" I yelled this from the roof top. (Actually I yelled it from the 5th floor of the science library, but we aren't supposed to yell there). Anyways, in that moment as much as I hated it and as hard as I had fought it, I knew. And hey, when you know. You know. Then I quit business school. Because I, Sophie Elizabeth, am not a numbers person. And that's ok. The thing is, not everyone is for numbers the same way how not everyone is musical. All things are gifts. You're good at math? That's your gift. You can recite all the countries? That is your gift. You can listen to someone deeper than anyone else? That is your gift. Because the most wonderful and beautiful thing about life is that not everyone is a numbers person. Life is inexhaustible. We spend our lives exhausted and exhausting. Exhausting all the possibilities of things we're not, and exhausted by trying them all. College has you try a lot, and truth be told you'll hate most of it. But you'll figure it out. We all do. And what I figured out is that I am not good with numbers. Or spreadsheets. Or charts. To be quite honest the word "Excel" used in anyway makes my skin crawl. So if all that doesn't have you convinced, here are five other reasons why you should absolutely 100% change your major.
