And my major is officially changed. Hooray!!! I think my mom is disappointed in me. Our exchange was as follows:
My text: I'm changing my major. I won't lose too many of my credits, so there's that!
Her text: Oh for crying out loud.
My text: I'm changing it to psychology.
Her text: What the fuck.
My text: ....Why what the fuck?
Her text is still in the works, I guess. Two days later, and three phone calls from me, I haven't heard a word. I have the sinking feeling it's because, for some reason, it sounds better to her to have a daughter studying business than a daughter studying psychology. No worries, though. She'll get over it. Or she won't. Either way, I'm super happy with my change.
I mapped out my classes today. As of the 11th, I will have twenty transferable credits to my new major. For the credits I have left to take, we have the following (and for your consideration, I have included class title and description):
PSY 227: The Psychology of death and dying
Examines the philosophies of life and death, emphasizing dying, death, mourning, and the consideration of one's own death.
PSY 226: Social psychology
Focuses on the behavior of humans in social settings, including attitudes, aggression, conformity, cooperation and competition, prejudice, and interpersonal attraction.
PSY 249: Abnormal psychology
Examines abnormal behavior and its classifications, causes, treatment, and prevention.
I also have to take Psychology 1 and Psychology 2, so that's five psych courses. It gets a shitload heavier once I transfer over, and since I'm going to apply for the Honors Psychology course, I'll be up to everyone else's eyeballs in psychology. I'm SO FUCKING EXCITED for it.
Since I also have to take a biology course, I've opted for Science of Biology. There's an incredibly sounding human biology course, with anatomy all about the thing, but I can't take it until I've taken three other courses behind it, and while I would love to, I just don't have the time or the funds.
Here's the run down of the other classes:
Introduction to Archaeology
Human Geography
Philosophy of Religion
World Mythology
20th Century World History
I've essentially signed up to spend the next two years writing papers. That being said, I don't even care. I'm so pleased with my choice.
