Eye Blinking

I think it's amazing how life can change in the blink of an eye.

I failed my linguistics exam as I predicted. Actually I didn't fail it but I came pretty darn close to failing. My major as of this morning was a double in Spanish and Education with a minor in Linguistics. I am dropping my linguistics class and dropping the minor. I feel a lot better. For some reason I had convinced myself that I needed to have 2 majors and a minor. What a goose I am/was. None of that. Watch me graduate with just a Spanish major. I think I'll be okay with that. I've decided that when I graduate I want to graduate as a public service scholar. With fewer majors, this could be very possible. 300 hours of community service. I can do it. I was debating on joining the Big Buddy organization. It sounds really cool and something I would definitely be interested in. Here's the description of what I would be doing...

Big Buddy pairs UNC students with "at risk" children ages 6-14 in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro community to form one-on-one mentor relationships. Each mentor acts as a friend and role model to a child in need of one, with the hope that the experience has a positive and lasting impact on the lives of both the "big" and "little" alike.

How cool could that be? Totally cool, I know.
Either that or I could join Youth for Elderly Services (YES). I love old people.

YES's members volunteer at one of five retirement homes in the community - Carolina House, Clare Bridge, Carolina Meadows, Carol Woods, or Britthaven. At these homes, volunteers have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities, including both one-on-one visits and group activities. YES also organizes group activities once a month in which all members participate.

That's my 2nd choice. We'll see what happens. I just decided that I want to live during college. Not study 24/7. So in that case, one major could satisfy me. Not to mention I'd be a really happy person. Haha...
