Making a leap

The time has come: I have found an alternative major: Accounting. I knew last year when I received the rejection letter from the Photography program that this day would come: I would have to choose something else. For this past year (well, 6 months) I've been struggling with this decision. What if I choose wrong? What if it's not really what I want to do? Maybe I should do something easy, that doesn't require applying at all. But, this feels right. I've thought about it, explored it (well, I plan on doing more exploring), done job shadowing, interviewed people, and I know I have to give this a chance. It will set me back for graduation about a year or two, but it will be worth it. I know I can make it into the program. My chances are definently better with this major than with Photography, and it's based on grades, which I can do. I will work on it, and as long as I like my accounting classes (knock on wood!) I will be able to get in. Unless, of course, life throws me another curve ball. But, bring it on!
