I recently decided (after months of being unhappy with my previous decision) to see if I want to change my major from graphic design to biology. My old decision making was partially based on "I've been drawing my whole life, and am somewhat good at it." I found that I like drawing sometimes, but generally only get enough motivation to paint something every month or so, and rarely ever finish those paintings (Out of the 40 or so paintings I've started, I've completed only about 30% of them.) So I started looking into alternatives. I've loved the sciences since I was little, and have been really curious about the world around me, so I signed up for a biology and chemistry class this fall semester. I just got the textbooks today, and starting going through them out of curiosity. I'm realizing that my high school did an awful job teaching science, and I'm having to review some basic concepts. However, I am not finding myself minding it. It's really interesting.
