<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

Okay, so there might be a wall of text here, not sure yet. Going to ramble and hope my thoughts get across.

I came to college two and half years ago, we'll call it Schmoregon State University. I came here for a music education degree and quickly decided that it wasn't for me even though the staff was great. I bounced over to English because I've always been a stellar student in that field. I found myself enjoying the classes, but I realized that analysis of text is all speculation and frankly, bullshit. So I moved on. That was over the course of two terms my freshmen year.

After that I decided not to change my major but instead I would complete my requirements outside of a major and take "feeler" classes. The idea of law enforcement appealed to me, so that's where I've been since then. The only problem with this is that the process to become and officer and work my way up to detective can be difficult if I make it through the initial hiring phase; which can take up to a year or longer in some places. 

What I need is a career that I can have comfortable living; meaning that I'm making at least 60k starting with the possibility to move up. At Schmoregon State we have a neat tool where we can look up "what if" scenarios for degrees and I'm almost finished with several degrees- English, Digital Media Communications, Speech Communications, and Sociology. I need to pick one, but I can't decide on which one would give me the best opportunities post-grad.
<bot>: I'm trying to get my shit together and I have some degrees I'm close to finishing. Reddit, what did you do when you were in my position, and how did it pan out?
