> Today I also changes my major to criminal justice. What is cool about this is that you have to take a fair amount of required psych classes, (which I have taken most for a psych major). It also allows for more electives which I can use my other psych classes for and other classes like nonverbal communication. I still have taken or will take the required classes to get into grad school for psych. I am thinking of going into forensic psychology, so the law and psych classes will be an advantage. Plus I can get really cool internships too. Plus I don't have to take 4 semesters of foreign language! ;-)
You know, I was so full of my thoughts of Luke and Laura that I didn't comment on this. But I was thinking about it. I have a really good feeling about this. It sounds like something that would really fit in with your passions in life.
I'm guessing that being a therapist would be frustrating in some ways. You would see things happening that you'd want to change, but be unable to change. It sounds like this career choice would give you a better opportunity to be less passive about something you care very much about.
