    English Literature in college. Turns out I always had a thing or two for literature and a pathetic crush on Shakespeare and Keats; which later included Edgar Allen Poe, Chinua Achebe, Thomas Hardy, and Virginia Woolf.

    Then a postgraduate in Human Resource Management. I knew I was always popular with speaking and the Agony AUnt kinds whom people turned up to with their problems. Just didn't know that I could juggle it up with corporate jargon too... Lol!!

    English major and speech communication minor.

    My speech comm emphasis was public speaking and rhetoric, not speech pathology.
    Communications was a very fun field though! Enjoy :-)

    I did a year in Early Childhood Education, a semester in Psychology, then back to ECE for a semester, got a job at a day care that made me realize teaching wasn't for me and switched to Real Estate and Business and I'm sticking with that. It's going to take an extra few semesters for me to graduate now after switching a few times!

    My husband is doing Industrial Engineering, he's switched his major more times than I have but he finally found what he likes, thankfully!

    Major in college was Mechanical Engineering, because in trade school I majored in Machinist. Why? To prove to some beefheads that a female is most certainly capable of machining, welding, lifting heavy items, and figuring out trigonometry. I completed my education. However, that was my ego guiding me and I have since changed my major to Correctional Officer, for much the same reasons but more of what I really wanna do with myself.
