Due to a variety of issues, I’ve moved this
blog.http://crequese.blogspot.com/
I don’t know how many times I’ve mentally told myself, “hey, blog. probably should update soon”.
Soon goes from a few days, to a week, to a month, and so on and so forth.
Besides the marathon and school, there is another reason I’ve been avoiding blogging-I’ve changed my major.
Not officially, but I personally have decided that communications/journalism will no longer be my sole focus in college. I realized this during my first day of Psychology class, not even 15 minutes into the introduction. Ever have those moments where something you’d never really expected ends up changing your whole thought process? There is my example.
I had signed up for Psych out of interest and because I needed the class, mainly for college applications. I’d considered it as a major, but never gave it much thought past that. So what blue moon appeared that caused my sudden change? Your guess is as good as mine, perhaps it’s my honesty seeping through, or unconscious desires-the whole Freudian slip idea.
It may have also been all the negativity surrounding the aura of journalism. all the bad stories, biased reports, the general bad vibe the job seems to release. Or my fear of never getting very far. Solution? Choose a much harder and more complicated career bath, brilliance! I’ll pat myself on the back so you can save the effort. And yes, I’m being sarcastic.
Whatever it is, I’ve decided it. That isn’t to say that writing is completely out of my life, this blog isn’t going anywhere, never fear. I still love writing and I’d still love to publish someday, but it simply won’t be my career.
