I started off college was a poli sci major and then realized that I actually hated politics fiercely. So then I was like, oh noes, what do I want to study? I chose against English because my friend Monica was doing it at the time and it involved so much reading and I chose against history for reasons I no longer recall, and that left one thing I could conceivably be good at: French.
I totally failed to make the connection that majoring in French would be similar to majoring in English in that I'd have to read all the time, only in French.
ETA: I missed the second part of the question! Um, I wanted to be famous. Not due to the actual fame part- I just wanted to be famous enough that people wanted to interview me. I wanted to do late-night talk shows and magazine articles and stuff.
