I initially wanted to major in Math/Computer Science, but I realized that there were lots of people better than me at Math. That was just depressing. And then my Computer Science teacher wasn't any good, so I dropped that major too. (I learned to regret that one.)
I ended up studying Japanese and Economics. Japanese to connect with my heritage I guess, and Economics to learn more about business.
How about you: what did you study in college and why? Or alternatively: if you could go to college now, what would you study?
