Just try a healthy diet, sleep, and exercise. Then, if its a matter of apathy, watch dead poets society, or some charlie kaufman films. If that doesn't work, then STOP BEING SO FUCKING LAZY YOU UNGRATEFUL WASTE OF OUR AMAZING 21ST CENTURY OXYGEN!!!! :angry:

Should I try to start majoring in Physics and Music Theory?
I dabbled in music at my college, but the music program was so strict and isolated from the rest of the uni, that I had trouble getting into anything more than elective piano lessons. Music majors had by far the most classes to take, and even the simpler sounding majors like music business required numerous proficiency tests and recitals. Other schools might be an exception, but considering how starkly different the fields are, I imagine it would be insanely difficult to tack on a theory minor to something as demanding as engineering, much less a major. But more importantly, I cannot see how music theory would be a sensible back-up. What exactly would you do with it if engineering doesn't work-out? Surely you wouldn't get paid to sing to play, if anything try music education. At least that has some pragmatic import, but by what I know of engineering from my science/math friends at college, you'll probably have your hands too full to really devote yourself to another major that would require a completely different set of prerequisites.

Indianapolis Colts to release Peyton Manning
Titans are apparently the front runner now after Peyton met with staff in Nashville for 7 hours. Not even sure if I like this or not, but it's damn exciting.

I just don't care anymore...
^diese but wit regards to the post. Sit down when you're not jacked up on caffeine or anything, and ask yourself what you want, what it takes to get there, and then it should be crystal clear what's keeping you from taking appropriate steps to get there.

What do you desire?
My brother has a PH.D in it, and currently has a position at Arkansas University. In all frankness, the most you can usually do is teach at the university level (and be an interesting/enlightened human being I suppose :shrug: ), though phil minors look really good with law and business degrees, and if you're religious and into theology/ministry, it's also a benefit. So no, it doesn't have much economic/pragmatic benefit. But..most people want/need to study it in universities because they have a passionate, invested interest in the importance of a certain perspectives, issues, and universities are usually the only place one can be in an environment/community devoted to the intense research/discussion of particular philosophical ideas. I would disagree with regard to your saying that 'it doesn't have any objective measurements or anything'. It's not a purely empirical science, but every modern philosopher, in presenting an argument is required to give a rigorous logical syllogism of that idea's development. As a result of this type of system, there are innumerous ideas that philosophers do deem objectively incorrect and unsound, as they do not abide by the principles of sufficient reason. Now, it often feels like a stagnant practice because, for one, society doesn't really care about the latest refutation of Kripke or Shoemaker, even if it does affect the decisions people make (it is relevant to everyday actions whether or not free will is compatible with determinism; if act consequentialism is better than rule consequentialism etc.) b. Many philosophy majors are more enamored with academica itself, than actually pursuing the ethical actions attached to their ideas. There's a certain hypocrisy in highlighting the ignorance of society, and then paying tens of thousands of dollars to an institution only to become a hedonistic professor who devotes his or her time to esoteric subjects, while ironically giving little to society. When in reality, philosophical enquiry has large import on the fields of psychology, law, politics etc. and should probably be done for the sake of those types of ends, rather than the label of 'philosophy professor'.
