While English is narrowly related to music (in terms of English compositions and lyrics), it's still a very different career path than what the typical English major would go for. As music is one of my passions and hobbies, I will always keep this career option open for myself. I know that a writing degree will greatly strengthen my ability to write meaningful lyrics that go along with my music too, so I have no issues going to school in such a versatile field such as English.

I write music as one of my hobbies. Focusing on how it relates to English, the lyric writing aspect of it ties into being a writing major, more on the creative side of things though.

As a student, I always proof-read, re-proof-read, and have a peer/parent/mentor review my work (more so for heavily weighted assignments) so I can submit the best work possible.

I regularly approach issues at work (cannot disclose specifics due to a confidentiality agreement) in various angles, so that I can gain perspective and solve the issue more effectively--even if that approach is unconventional.

I am an empathetic and understanding person at heart, so even if I don't understand something or someone, I won't disregard it or disrespect it; this is important in the English department as it helps in becoming a better writer, teacher, literary analyzer, etc.

I will never accept that I "can't" do something; at a recent job interview, I was given a scenario to hypothetically solve, and I was unsure of the exact terminology and where to start. I told the interviewer that at that moment, I didn't know the answer, but that with the right resources I would be able to solve it with no issues. There is nothing that I can't learn how to do, education is a life-long path.
