Changing of the Major 2nd time is the charm!

So, today I officially changed my major. Exciting! Woot woot. I'm now a Middle Childhood Education Major, with concentrations in Math and Science. I also plan to get my generalist endorsement and my reading endorsement. I've decided to change my major for a variety of reasons.
1. I suck at playing solos on my euphonium. And everyone and their mom decides to tell me this. Including some people that I really was surprised to hear it from..... :(
2. I've been praying a lot about it and it seems like God is pointing me in this direction (this should probably be #1!)
3. I'm tired of busting my butt for a music degree, and still fall short of exemplary. Freakin Music History.

So a lot of people have told me I'm stupid for changing my major. Yes, I know I'm going to be at MVNU for a while longer. I'm looking to graduate in FA2012. Yes, I know it's a huge jump from music to math and science. Yes, I know I have a lot of classes to take. But you know what? I want to do what will make me happy, not what will get my out of school sooner. Yea, I want to be done soon. But I don't want to e told how much I suck at what I want to do in life. That just makes me miserable. I guess what bothered me the most about when people said I suck was that they constantly told me, practice more practice more practice more. I DID! I can play the piece just fine and dandy when it's only me in the room. But when other people come in the room I tense up and suck at life. I hate hate hate hate hate HATE solos. Like a tiny one in band is ok, but not a 5-8 minute long one with only the piano and I. No, and honestly, when would that be a reality for a Music Educator? Most of the music teachers I know from high school haven't played a solo in decades. But that's just me. Juries don't bother most people I guess, I just hate them.

Well that's enough ranting for now. I just hope people get off my back about my decisions about MY life.
