Desicions

I'm almost a junior now and I still haven't declared. I went so long thinking I'd go the french direction...now I have no idea. I feel so clueless at this time in my life. I'm focusing so much on declaring and it doesn't seem to be getting me any closer to a decision.
I was so obsessed with learning french and I just wanted to live in France.
Now I'm not sure that is the case. I would love to know another language, but more for travel purposes than anything. I don't know if I want my job to have anything to do with it.
I'm being too safe here, saying 'I don't know if...' before all of my statements. Everything is so unsure right now. I feel pressure to declare soon, because I don't want to spend any more time or money than I absolutely have to, but maybe that attitude will never provide me with enough certainty.
Maybe I need to explore what my college offers, so that by the time I do come to a decision, I will feel right about it.
I'm retaking an american history course this summer and retaking a math course this fall. Those are both things that take a little more effort from me, but that I may very well enjoy.
I'm still extremely clueless about my life right now, but I'm excited to figure it out.
I'm lucky that I have these opportunities.

  1. You could stick with french as a minor and major in something else. I kind of wish I had majored in math, but I got a minor in math as a consequence of my degree anyway because they overlapped.

  2. You read my mind. I'm thinking now a liberal arts major and french minor with the goal of being a teacher...either a french teacher or an elementary teacher with some kind of focus on french.
