Charming Changes

So, guess what? I changed my major! Good thing I'm only a freshman. Well, I technically changed my major. It's still going to be a double major in Psychology and Philosophy, but instead of the Neuroscience option (B.S.) for Psychology, I've decided that I'm going to change to (B.A.) Psychology because then I'll be able to take a lot more classes that I'm interested in taking instead of the pre-requisite classes to the actual classes that I'd have to take for the neuroscience option. Yay?! So, how have I come to this? I realized that I'm doing horribly in Chemistry and pretty much had a mental, I mean, nervous breakdown the night of the review before the first exam. I thought about how I would fail and it's not going to go well. I don't even want to be a doctor (which was why I was going with the neuroscience option anyway). So yeah, I talked to the advisers for Psychology and Philosophy and it seems to work out perfectly. I would only need 15 more credits along with whatever Psychology requires to graduate with a double major. Gee, that makes me think that maybe possibly I could minor in something too... But most of the classes I want to take are just Psychology- and Philosophy-based anyway... Sooo... maybe a minor in some sort of thing of Psychology or Philosophy along with those B.A.?
Anyways, what else... I've started "knitting" scarves and making bracelets out of string which is pretty fun. I've been meeting people like crazy (not really, but I have met people). I think Imagine Dragons is coming to my school, which is cool. Not sure who else will be coming to play. What other hobbies do I have?... Hmm... Not really sure. I learned a magic trick? Which I'll need to improve on. Also, learning some other things!
And back to school, classes, and what-have-you. My classes are going well. This week has been mainly adjusting to the things going on, like dropping that chemistry class. I seem to have more time now! Getting serious about doing work! Today was a somewhat productive day! I got some work done a lot faster than I thought I was going to. I am going to be going to juggling club soon! Yay! Passing the time by. Also, there was this incident with this kid in my psychology class, who I kind of insulted the first day I met him (it was a joke!) and then I forgot his name. I made him a bracelet though (in the extra time that I had - it took me about 4 hours to make) in hopes of (re-)kindling a friendship that may not have been there, especially with that first impression. The thing is though, he probably doesn't even remember, or hold a grudge against me, even though he did start sitting on the opposite side of the class, but maybe he was before he sat next to me anyways. We'll see. That's not weird, is it?
Things are getting exciting! I've made new friends, which I find to be good friends, even if we don't talk that often. Well, probably more often that not, but whatever. I'll be able to schedule classes for the summer soon! And then get a plane ticket home :) Well, plan a flight back home for the summer. I've also already started planning my classes for the fall semester. Yippee. I really enjoy planning. It's fun. I'm probably also going to start planning what classes I can sit in on for the first days of class (getting started ahead of time to get syllabi! I've figured it out!). What else.... Well, there are things! Things are looking up! Yay! Excitedness! Optimism! Life!
