As much as I enjoy teaching, I would have liked to have majored in English and then a master's in journalism. I would have loved to work for a magazine. But, the way the internet is effecting magazines now, things probably worked out for the best.
The other choice: I actually had a very good singing voice. I won a couple of awards in high school for singing. My freshmen year of college, I joined a campus vocal group. The professor who directed us told me that I should study voice. She said that I had the chance to have a career as a back-up singer/commercial vocalist. The sad thing was that I was very shy in high school and the beginning of college. I didn't take what the teachers said seriously because I thought they were just being nice.
