Hey there
Hey
The best thing that has happened to me this year would probably be getting closer to graduation haha. How are you doing!?
Great how are you doing? College graduation or high school?
College. Are you an incoming freshman then?
Nah, I did a year already but I got back from my mission this year so I'm gonna be a sophomore What did you major in?
I'm majoring human development with a minor in business Welcome back! How does it feel to be part of society again haha
ah ok, I'm majoring in Psych
Ooh, very cool. I know a few psych majors. They love what they're studying. How do you like the major?
Being back is really nice. I missed the US. I think Im completely adjusted to being back by now haha
Haha. Well I am glad to hear it.
I really like it, super interesting, I might minor in Chemistry
It is weird coming back after being abroad.
yes
Everything is really big, and spread out
I know! Where did you serve, or where were you abroad?
I was in Sweden on a study abroad Food is also way better abroad in my opinion. Chemistry is a cool minor. I know some of the professors there.
Yeah, public transportation is also a lot better in Europe. I think I want to pursue Psychiatry so I think a Chem minor would be helpful. So what are your hobbies?
Oh yes! I love public transport in Europe. It is so dependable and efficient! And it's fun being able to walk everywhere. Why do you want a chem minor? To understand chemical reactions between meds?
I've been looking into Psychiatry and since I would need to get into medical school, I think a Chem minor would help me I think its possible to get into med school with just a Psych major but I don't know if its super common
Oh okay. Med school makes more sense. That will be a very fun path for you!
Yeah, I'm excited Not excited for all of the student debt though
Hahaha That is very understandable. BYU helps with that at least. Not nearly as expensive as places like Harvard.
Yeah thats true! So what are you planning to do with your major?
I want to open my own business actually
Oh cool There in Utah or somewhere else?
Actually I think I want to go elsewhere. Like Washington
Nice, I've always wanted to visit Washington, it seems like a nice place to live
It is gorgeous. I love it! It's so lush all over
Someday i'll make it out there, Oregon too
Oregon is also super cool. It's definitely a weird hipster thing
Yeah hahaha I had a friend that went to school there and he changed so much
Yes! It's so true They have a slogan there, Keep Portland Weird. It really is true.
hahha yes So this is my first year at BYU, I transferred over from UVU. Any tips?
Ooh Welcome welcome Uhm, talk to your professors. If you can make a friend in your class to help you out.
Yeah, I prefer smaller classes because the professor gets to talk to us more individually
That is a bit different. If you still have to take generals, then you will definitely have bigger class sizes. My biggest class was 700 people
Dang, yeah I have a few more generals to knock out of the way but by the end of this coming school year I should be done with generals
That shouldn't be too bad then.
yeah
Do you know what you want to study?
I think working with children/youth would be interesting, so early childhood psychology hey I have to go now but it was nice speaking with you! good luck with your business!
