Eh, frankly I’m biased towards the whole do what you love thing, but what I will say is that if there is something impractical that you love, then keep it in your life, whether it’s through extracurriculars or a minor. I’m doing both of those things with philosophy right now despite being a psych major (hence my username), and I honestly need it. Because psych majors just aren’t my people, and I don’t think I could function without having a place where I feel like I belong. And you’re not going to feel like you belong if you’re only taking classes to earn money and/or a job.
