I still can't believe that after all this time of overanlyzing this career opportunity and learning numerous times that it is not my thing. (As cool as science is, it's never been a passion of mine) And looking at how freaking bored I get during Chemistry and how much I've dreaded the past 3 years of science classes...why the heck would I ever commit myself to studying a career in this?
The answer: to make my parents happy. That's why.
But it doesn't make me happy. After reading Cinamon and Coffee's blog (a med student herself) and seeing how her days as a med student go by with anatomy classes, biochemistry galore (barf), and copious amounts of memorization of medicinal equations I realize "I could never in a million years do that and like it."
The only part I'd like would be poking and prodding and the disection aspect of it. But that's not everyday. Realistically, it's more like...never.
So I must remind myself that words are my thing. (I scored 75% higher than my entire junior class in the writing section of the PSAT.) And thusforth I must do something I love.
I've actually heard of a lawyer that works in the fashion department...so that leaves me with a lingering speckle of hope that it would be possible for me to involucrate myself in the fashion arena while still have a promising career. (Law)
My grandma's always saying: Lawyer's don't ever make money. Well, bad lawyers don't. Obviously. Hopefully I'll be an excellent and highly successful one. That way I'd be able to give my parents everything and more that they gave me (which is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much)
Oh the ideas I'll actually tamper with (pre-med) just for my mom and dad.
I need to follow my passions. ANd although for the moment my only diehard passion is fashion... I don't see there being a bright career there. Plus, whatever would I study? I don't want to sew or be a designer or anything. I would just like to style and get paid to shop or something. Aka- impossible and I'd end up being dirt poor.
Man, I tell ya' ..... If I was assured that I could make a professional decision and know that I could not fail no matter what.... you can bet your bottom dollar I'd be hoppin on the Fashion Wagon.
For now...LAw is the prospective career. Let's see what career ideas I'll be tampering with in the near months. A couple months ago it was Journalism and now I'm disgusted with it. So let's see how far this law stuff goes.
