It's 9pm at night, I'm desperately trying to fill my brain with last minute content for my Anatomy mid-semester exam in a few days and honestly, I don't mind it so much (in saying that, the majority of me is over panicking about it, but at least I love what I do).
I say this, because I think I've made a decision. I'm dropping the Science component of my double degree to focus solely on Biomed. It's not that I am struggling doing both, or anything of the sort. Sitting in my Ecology lecture this morning, falling asleep, made me seriously realise that I feel strongly about the environment and its importance to society, but I don't get a kick out of it like I do when we talk about the human body and helping people. And when people ask me, "what are you going to do afterwards?" My answer is never anything to do with Conservational Biology.
I just hope this decision is the right one. And I hope I haven't stuffed up my course progression. My friends gave me some good advice the other day: I shouldn't feel trapped by the decisions I made in the past. Sure, it's a pain in the bum and I may have to do some extra units to complete the single degree requirements but I will have peace of mind knowing that I am one step closer to something I feel passionately about.
