I know what you're thinking: "Oh my goodness. That girl changes her major like she changes her clothes!"
Yes, I have been indecisive (architecture, art, music, history, society, geography, philosophy, language, literature, CULTURE)...
Applying to UCCS, I said Spanish would be my major, knowing how practical it is to be fluent in the language of our neighbors. I also said a minor would be crucial to the specialization process which I am going through at the university.
Considering that my interests include various ways of studying humans and their culture, and looking back on the most interesting course I took this semester (Introduction to Human Origins), I realized my best option would be to major in Anthropology and minor in Spanish. This way, I still become fluent in the language of our neighbors while studying what I am truly passionate about: human beings and their interactions with each other and the environment.
Spring 2010 registration is finished, and this is my final schedule:
~Intermediate Spanish I - a continuation of my Spanish studies! Se habla español.
~Business and Professional Communication - to learn how to effectively sell my skills.
~Nature of Language - anthropological study of tongue.
~Intro to Cultural Anthropology - the counterpart to Physical Anthropology.
~Human Biology & Ecology - to deepen my understanding of human health, reproduction, and demography.
~VAPA Vocal Ensemble - a CHOIR! I haven't been in a choir since high school!
Sounds like a great semester!
