Political Science

ahhh, poli sci. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but I'm so sure now how much I'm loving it. I don't know what I want to do with it. I mean there's always law school, but somehow I don't see myself really in that field. I wanted to work on campaigns. Or be a speech writer. Or work in the bureaucracyof the government. But, I'm quickly finding that maybe that's not what I want to do. Because I have no interest in learning about political science. I feel like its not really something that can be taught, in a way. To me, its always been about researching the situation and forming some type of position or opinion about it. I feel like enrolling myself in courses where I'm taught about the situation, with an instructors influence on the subject isn't really my idea of politics.
Lately more and more, I've been considering changing my major. I just don't know what I would change it too. Pyschology perhaps? But that seems like the standard "I'm gonna change my major to this because I don't know what I want to do" major. I actually enjoy helping people through their problems and talking. I'm super nosy. I have this thing where I like to follow people's thought process. For instance, if we're having a conversation about eggs, and someone brings up elephants, I HAVE to know how that individual's mind jumped from eggs to elephants. And the strange thing is, if I know them, I can typically follow their thought process to how they got to elephants without even having to ask them. I took a psych class in high school and really enjoyed it.
I think I could be happy as a counselor or psychologist. Or even in the business setting, I could use my psychology degree in human resources or something. I'm just not sure if thats the path for me though.
This whole figuring out what I'm supposed to do thing is actually somewhat stressful. Because of all the AP classes I took in high school, I'm done with most of my undergraduate classes. All I have left are sciences and histories. I fulfilled alll my english, math, foreign language, and humanities credits. so its not like I can just keep putting this off... I feel like I may be visiting the Career Center in the near future. Because I definitely need some guidance in the right direction... Gahhh..
