DeltAlum is right - sanity hits and you just find your way. Here's my story:
All my life, I wanted to go to Tulane. So, I got there, and decided "Computer Science is hot right now, I'm good with comptuers, I'll be a CS major!" I hated it. It brought me to tears more times than I'd like to remember. Tulane did the same for me. When I transferred to LSU, I knew it was time to redo my major.
I'm embarassed to admit this, but the way I picked my new major was thus: all the stuff I'd already taken was accepted in this new major. I had NO IDEA what "Information Systems and Decision Sciences" was, and the catalogue description was totally vague. All I knew was that it had some computer stuff, some business stuff and that the graduates placed in good jobs. I was lucky in that I found a good major, but (right around my 20th birthday) I decided I didn't want to do it forever.
Both of my parents are lawyers and I'd off and on tossed around the idea of becoming an attorney. But in my soph year, it clicked - I wanted to do Internet/Intellectual Property law. I'd be using my undergrad degree to an extent, but I'd be following something I loved.
Newbie, you're obviously a smart girl and you'll do just fine! Best of luck to you!
