This semester I have been enrolled in a Dance Aerobics class. I love it! You know all of those corny workout videos? Well, that's basically how my class is! My teacher is way enthusiastic, and each class we do a different kind of workout and listen to fun, upbeat music! At the end of each class, we do a series of stretches, crunches, sit ups, and yes, pushups. In one of my previous blogs I mentioned how I couldn't do pushups for the life of me, thus being the reason I ruled out an Exercise and Wellness major. Honestly, I have no idea why I can't do a pushup. I never been able to though. I take comfort in the fact that most of my friends can't either, but still. Even the girl pushups, I'm not too good at them! But the full fledged, army type pushups? I don't even attempt those anymore! haha. But anyways, back to the major thing. Since being at BYU, I have been juggling back and forth between a major in Communications with an emphasis in Print Journalism OR Exercise and Wellness. This semester I have been taking a Communications class, and I absolutely love it! However, I really love exercising and health, so I thought maybe that could be the path for me. Well, I looked at the classes for E&W, and for the most part, they all seemed like excellent classes. Until I noticed you have to take several physiology and anatomy classes. I Hate Science! Kristalyn informed me that some of those classes involve dead people, and I'm not really into that whole human cadaver thing. Still, at this point I was still considering the major. Then, I took Dance Aerobics, and once again was reminded of my lack of ability in doing pushups. At that point, I decided that I would be better off majoring in Print Journalism! It may seem like a lame reason not to do a major, but combined with the whole science factor, I figured communications might be a better choice! I really do love my Comms class and I'm really hoping I will get accepted into the program by the end of my Freshman year! I did discover a minor in nutrition, and I decided I want that as my minor! All of the classes seem really interesting, and guess what? No dead people involved! I'm taking one of the nutrition classes next semester, as well as my remaining two pre-reqs for Communications! I'm so excited :-) Hopefully this will be my final decision, but I'm so indescive, check back in a year and maybe it'll be different! As for now, I'm set!

You are so cute and funny! I like your choices--the main thing is if you feel at peace with them. But I'm thrilled that you love Communications! It has to be the most fun major they have at BYU. And I think the nutrition minor suits you really well. (But keep trying to do that pushup!)
