Katie's Blog: I'm Just Sayin . . .: Indecisive? Why, yes, I am.

Quotes I Live By

“There are cycles of good and bad times, ups and downs, periods of joy and sadness, and times of plenty as well as scarcity. When our lives turn in an unanticipated and undesirable direction, sometimes we experience stress and anxiety. One of the challenges of this mortal experience is to not allow the stresses and strains of life to get the better of us—to endure the varied seasons of life while remaining positive, even optimistic. Perhaps when difficulties and challenges strike, we should have these hopeful words of Robert Browning etched in our minds: 'The best is yet to be'"--L. Tom Perry

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us . . . If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."
--President Gordon B. Hinckley

"God the Eternal Father did not give [the] first great commandment because He needs us to love Him. His power and glory are not diminished should we disregard, deny or even defile His name. His influence and dominion extend through time and space independent of our acceptance, approval or admiration. . . No, God does not need us to love Him. But oh, how we need to love God! . . . For what we love determines what we seek. What we seek determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who are--and who we will become." --President Uchtdorf

Indecisive? Why, yes, I am.

All you loyal readers of my blog probably remember the several posts where I wrote about my major. And how I was so sure of it. Yeah. About that. I'm back to the drawing board. Over the past week, I think I have changed what I've wanted to do about 10 times. Really. I've come to the conclusion that perhaps I'm not supposed to major in anything and just go live in some foreign country. And sell rice or something. Alas, I don't think that would be very fun. Sometimes I really wish that I could know what I'm gonna major in via the same way people get mission calls. Signed by the first presidency and anything. I mean, how many people do you see changing their mission call to something else? Oh yeah, that would be none. So, here's where I need all of you all's help. I'm gonna post a poll of all my possible majors, and you pick for me! Fun game, I know. And heck, if you think I should major in something I haven't even thought of, feel free to leave it as a comment. (Unless you are going to suggest Chemical Engineering like my dad keeps saying...No thank you!) Thanks, friends. My future is now in YOUR hands! :-D (the poll is on the right hand side of my blog)

Anonymous said...: I thought Print Journalism was pretty awesome for you Katie. I feel like, even though I tend to be more liberal, the world needs journalists that know more about what they're doing, and know more about what they're saying. You're generally concerned and you should let the american public know how you feel...because honestly, most don't know how to feel and aren't well informed.; May 27, 2009 at 9:42 PM
Linda said...: Oh my, Katie! I'm afraid I won't be able to help you on this one. I've got that same indecision gene that you have! Work on getting your General Ed requirements and maybe something will surprise you. I waited to finish a Science class until second sememter of my senior year and that's when I discovered that I loved genetics!; May 29, 2009 at 8:56 AM
