Well, I think I’ve made a decision. After careful thought and consideration, I think I’ll be switching to a History major in the fall (about a 97% chance). I’m going to head to the registrar tomorrow and see about getting a double major with Music and History. I already have a crapload of music credits that I’m sure I can use, so we’ll see from there. I’ll just need to take 36 hours of History courses and 6 hours of a language other than English. I figure I’ll take a first year French course, keep things simple. I don’t much want to learn a foreign language when my grade is dependent on it. Kinda funny, because in high school I so badly wanted to take a Spanish course. Of course, the French kids got to have it… but I digress.

But after this BA, I’m considering taking a MLIS (Masters of Library and Information Studies), and being an archivist/research librarian. It’s something I could be good at and hopefully a lot more easily attained than this friggin’ music thing. I imagine I’d be taking that degree in the states though, with maybe a few years’ break in between. It’s just a two year graduate program, so it’s not too long, and besides, I might want a break to get used to living in a new country.

I looked at some of the history courses and what they involved, and it seems as long as I can handle presenting an essay in class, that’s the most public performing I’ll have to do. That makes me happy, for sure. Honestly — what was I thinking? I always hated speaking/singing in front of people. Music is all about performance! I’m retarded! At any rate, if I can get this double major thing squared away, then I’m almost all set. We’ll see how things go tomorrow at the registrar’s office.
