What's YOUR best way to stay motivated and consistent in college, or just in general
I'm not gonna lie- being in college has been EXHAUSTING to say the least. I feel like I've done enough to to earn myself a doctorate, and it's only my second year! Espically with being a film student, the late nights shooting with early morning classes can be alot for me- not to mention my job, applying for scholarships, working out, and maintaining a social life, to name a few. To any creatives, or anyone's who got their life down to a science- how did you do it? And what could I do to find at least a little bit of stablity in this seemingly always unstable environment?

Is there an “easy way” to decide between two majors?
I’m currently a high school senior headed out the door to college this fall. I thought I was set on Marine Biology for my major and everyone has been pushing me towards it as well, but my passion in Art and animation grew more and I’ve noticed that I am more interested in Art than I am in Marine Biology. I found a college that I can have a major or minor in either Marine Biology or Art and they did inform me that it was easy to switch majors/minors at any time. I still come back and ask myself which one I would choose, but I’m still tied between the two. Is there an “easy way” (or as easy as possible) to decide between the two majors? If you have any advice at all, please let me know.
