first thought was to major in Psychology and become a Drug Addiction Counselor. Once enrolled into my first semester of classes that decision changed, not because I did not like or was not interested in psychology.

In truth, I was vastly unprepared to take the class because I had no experience in Psychology or writing extensive essays using only deeply researched data as my only sources.
