Can't I Just Major In Super Special Awesome?

I could start off with an attention getter like....startling statistics. Yeah. I'll do that.

1.1 billion people lack access to safe drinking water

by 2025, 75% of the world's need for water will exceed supply for it

There is a layer 3km thick of toxic haze over S. Asia

There are 2 Billion metric tons of pollutants in the air

90% of large predator fish have been removed from the ocean

Every year, Americans, on average, throw away 2 billion tons of disposable razors

Scared yet?

I don't know what point I'm trying to make. I'm just trying to transition into my thoughts as to what I would like to major in. I have been thinking about majoring in Environmental Studies now. Don't laugh...I'm trying to save your planet fools.

The whole teaching deal is up in the air right now. I don't know if that's what I want to do right now. Maybe later in life I'll come back and be a licensed teacher.

But for now...who says I need a license to be able to teach? Maybe I can be one of those little ranger chicks at the National Parks who tells children of the horrors of bear attacks and to not litter and stuff like that. Then by the light of the moon I would go out and save the planet somehow.

This is all hypothetical. It's only the first few days of class and I have 4 years to go. But seriously, if I majored in environmental studies, I could easily major in something else. That's right...double major. I could even triple that offer. Yes. triple major. Or at least...double with a concentration I guess.

It's perfect for an indecisive person like myself.

I don't know what I want to do with my life really though. I once knew. Now I don't. We'll see. It would just be nice to have a realistic goal in my life.
