I was a psychology major with an English with an emphasis on writing minor. I was originally a liberal studies major, which would have given me a BA and multiple subject credential (to teach K-6) in four years, but I realized that, while I wanted to teach, I did not want to teach that age group as well as the fact that I'd spent my whole school career learning what everyone else wanted me to learn and it was time for me to choose the classes I wanted to take. However, by the time I decided this, I no longer had enough financial aid left to be a double major. I took more English units later to prove subject matter competency for my single subject credential, which would have actually given me another BA, but at the last minute, the local college said that I needed another history class and I couldn't afford part-time tuition for a single class.
I went to a really small college and we didn't have any sociology classes, but I've always thought it was interesting, too, and wish I'd had the opportunity.
I think any combination of sociology, English, and history suits you. At my university, we had this thing called interdisciplinary majors and, while I don't know the full details and parameters, the student got to build his or her own graduation plan and mash different disciplines together rather than choosing just one.
