When you're figuring out what major or career you'd be good at or interested in, it can be helpful to think about what you're passionate about and what you do in your free time.

I know, I know: you have very little free time when you're in school all day, sports practice all afternoon, and busy doing homework all
evening. But if you had more free time, what activities would you do
more of? (Not including, of course, sleeping and just hanging out!)

i listen to music, talk on the phone or go kik it wit my gurls or my guy frnds and write poetry or sumtimes just sleep or go for a walk on the nice days.
Writing poetry is *such* a great way to burn off steam, especially when you're feeling stressed! I'm so glad to hear you channel your energy creatively :) Keep writing, from one creative writer to another!
This might be because I was raised trilingual but I have always loved learning languages. Unfortunately I have too many other classes to take for my degree while I'm in college so I don't have time to take as many language classes as I would like (although I'm a spanish minor too) so if I had more free time, I would spend it learning more languages. Did you know you can listen to free podcasts on iTunes of introductory (and more advanced) courses on many different languages?
If I ever have free time, I usually like to catch up on reading a new book that someone recommends or I think is interesting, work on a sudoku (I love them!), learn new songs to play on guitar, or catch up on some movies or shows. But with a lot of free time, like during the summer, I like to learn something new and somewhat productive, such as learning to play a new instrument, learning to cross-stitch (dorky, I know), volunteering at some place where they can probably teach me new skills, or adding new things to my scrapbook.

This tricks do help. The way I remeber things is write things down on a calender by my door that way when I walk out I will see it. I also use my phone because you could add reminders to make sure you dont forget.
