When someone asks me my major, and I tell them Psychology.
And then they say “Oh of course you are.”
UM EXCUSE YOU.
Just because Psychology is a popular field of study right now and is the most popular major at the school, does NOT mean you can undermine me because that is what I choose to…
You do realize you’re being the same kind of an ass to people who are majoring in English/Philosophy/Music as other people are to you over your Psychology major? Just saying, since I’m still interested in an English degree, NOT because I’m interested in being a “career woman” or making a certain amount of money, but because it’s truly what I feel would be right for me.

They’re not worth it. All this is the reason I’m getting a tattoo of “I apologize for nothing” written across my heart.
I think you’ll do just fine :)
