    I got accepted into college last year. Went to an open house and recently I went to another event they had. First time I went there I loved it, and couldn’t wait to go back. Second time, I had mixed feelings and started having second thoughts. Like I love the place and the people but I’m slowly losing interest in the major I chose. I went to a short class that day and I realized how much I just wasn’t into it. Everyone else was so much smarter and more passionate about it than I was. Then afterwards I went to a student activity event where we played bingo and I absolutely loved it! Like part of me wants to go to improve my social skills and meet new people and the other think it’s a waste of time because I’m losing interest in my degree. I’m not sure if these second thoughts are just nervous feelings of making a huge change or if I’m actually not interested. It’s hard to tell at this point. I have till the fall to decide but this recent visit as got me feeling these things that have taken a toll on my mental health these past few days.

    • Sophie, I wouldn’t worry too much on losing interest in your major. It happens. I must have changed mine like 5 or 6 times. There’s so much out there so it’s hard to decide what to focus on. I’m sure you’ll zone in on something. Just don’t beat yourself too hard about it. 😉

      • Yeah, I’m trying not to worry too much. I did look at the other majors they have and I think I found one that I might love. It’s game art design. That sounds like something I’d enjoy. They have these conventions every couple months where they can present the games they created. It sounds really cool.
