What the hell does that even mean? If you had said that she reads, studies, articulates, speaks eloquently, beautiful use of grammar and words that are so endearing to ears I would say definitely, but you said she looks like an English major. Would you have said that if she was of a different race, a different body size, etc? Quick tip all English Majors come in all different sizes not just the one you perceive them to be.

This was so comforting. I'm finishing my Honours degree in English (in New Zealand we snap the fourth year off the BA and bump it up to postgrad, a bridge between the BA and Masters - so that people can just do three years and get a job. It's more or less equivalent to the final year of the American BA) and I've been peeling away from my studies which has excited and distressed me. I used to dedicate my whole life to class and essays but now I find myself staring out the window or spending hours on facebook when I sit down to write. I've felt like WTF DO I DO NOW?? This is who I am. I feel like there's a life sitting *over there*, a garden of pleasure nourishing otherworldly flowers, ripe for me to stumble into by mistake. Interests change, I suppose. I've just never been a flip-flopper, I move slowly and when I commit I commit. I feel like I'm discovering myself and I have no idea what to expect, which makes it hard to make decisions about what jobs to apply for, if I even decide to start applying now. What's a baby gonna do in an office anyway? In the meantime, I'll spend my days volunteering at Vincent's Art Workshop with a woman whose mentorship might help me get my self-belief swole.

I'm an English Major too! Concentration in Literary Studies with a Minor in History and am about to graduate in the spring. Some books I recommend: "The Cancer Journals" by Audre Lorde, "The Milagro Beanfield War" by John Nichols, "The Line of the Sun" by Judith Ortiz Cofer, "A Good Man is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor (short story), The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey.

i’m in love with the way you talk about books. i used to read a lot when i was younger but now i don’t have the attention span for it, but you make me really want to try to read again :”))

I'm a senior in high school and throughout my high school career, I have been so unsure about what I want to do or what I want to major at and for a while, I've been thinking on an English major and your video really helped me because I like to write and read books and I'm already excited for college. Also, subscribed to see more amazing content :) ♡♡♡

I loved this video! I've always wanted to study English literature but ended up doing science in college. It was very nice to see you talk about the books you got to study in your first year, I can't wait to go through some of them :) I would definitely love to see more college related videos!

In another life I would’ve loved to be an English lit major

My high school years in a nutshell. Nostalgia hit me really hard while watching this. I always loved writing essays on poetry, it seemd more fun to find all the different meanings and layers in them because they were shorter and the fact that you could discover so much in such a small and restrictive space just made it so much beautiful. Those were the years i learned how much I love reading about existential spleen, analysing an existential or erotic elegy or an ars poetica or just how insufferable and yet interesting I found dadaist poetry. The different types of eras in literature and how they changed over time was also something that i found intresting, and I really loved when we read novels where you could find multiple literary movements seamlessly combined. Ever since I got into university I hadn't been able too do that kind of stuff so watching your video hit home really hard and I loved every second of it.

I could listen to you talk forever! You’re so eloquent. Great vid ❤️

yes! reading against the grain is something i just learned in my AP class. it’s so interesting to analyze literature from a different POV.

I love your enthusiasm. I was an English major at Vassar, and your attitude toward getting to know and love literature down to the bones is what I experienced too. I'm glad you had the opportunity to read so widely and deeply. I can understand you not loving Conrad, but don't give up. Put it away for a couple decades and pull it out again. There will be a payoff. I look forward to seeing more of your vids! Best, Rob

What do you actually study?" I never got the response I wanted but you did it. This was exactly what I wanted to know. It was soooooo good Emma!! I think every person who's considering whether or not to major in English Literature should watch this video. You've given me more reasons to be excited for this first year and this degree and I'm so grateful. Thank you, you're the best!!

Well, sometimes you have a choice what you actually study. I for example had optional American novels and Irish drama and I had chosen as an option Irish drama and also Irish movies and it was an excellent choice. I had a block of classes devoted to translation and personally have fallen in love with the subject "pragmatics of translation" which many people hated, so there is no "one-size-fits-all" answer to your question. You can personalize what you study.
