How To Figure Out What to Do With Your Major

What Should I Do With My Major?! // How To Figure Out What to Do With Your Major - ew & pt

I’m pretty sure the amount of people who have chosen a major and know exactly what they want to do with it is a lot lower than we all think. Like, even if you have chosen your major and you sort of know what you want to do, you might have doubts and question yourself and wonder if that’s really what you want to do or if that’s what you think you want to do and…you know what I mean.

Once you’ve finally chosen a major (Pssst…check out my How To Choose A Major  and Signs You Chose The Right Major before reading this!), you’re on a great track but you need to keep going from there. It’s great you know which field you want to be in, but now you need to start to find your place. Honestly, I’m pretty sure of what I want to do but sometimes there are those moments where I question myself–nothing in life is totally certain, but having at least a sort of idea of where you want your major to take you is always helpful.

When you’re failing a class you have two options: you can give up, fail and just eat ice cream and cry about it OR you can take action, pass and eat celebratory ice cream instead of self-pity, failure ice cream. Celebratory ice cream just tastes better, you know?

So, my friends, if you’re failing a class there is still hope for you. This guide will help you figure out just what to do to save your grade! Even if you’re not currently failing, these are also great ways to improve your confidence, habits and grades in general.

Fall Beauty Essentials // eyeliner wings & pretty things

You know those people who lose their minds as soon as September begins and start screaming about Halloween? You might even be one of those people. I’m kind of like that except as soon as September begins, regardless of how hot it is, I’m already losing my mind about how it’s basically AUTUMN! Or fall if you prefer the less pretty word for it.

Fall is my favorite season and makeup is one of my favorite things ergo, fall beauty essentials. I already have fall wardrobe essentials if you’d like to check it out, too!
