Who am I Going to be?

I often ask my self this question. Who am I going to be in the future? Personality wise, I hope I remain the humorous person I am now and career wise…I am not so sure. I have always had interests in a little bit of everything, so when asked what are my interests, I get so flustered. Recently, having gone to Advising Day at YVC this question was asked and I did not know how to respond. There is not something I love entirely, but I have always dipped in different subjects I found interesting. Nothing too interesting enough to be able to plan my whole future around. I have always found the subject of Psychology extraordinary, but now that I am actually taking a class about it, I find that I am not that interested in the scientific side of psychology like the “neurons” etc. So that’s out of the list. If I did not really enjoy Psychology, I may have an interest towards Sociology, but that was not the case. I feel like Sociology states the obvious of society’s norms. Then comes a communications class that I really only began taking because I enjoyed expressing my thoughts through writing. Not thinking much of it, I began taking a great interest in the subject and soon questioned myself. What if I majored in Communications? It is something I felt content saying, which does not always happen. I finally felt like I belonged somewhere. My communication class had strengthened my interest in writing which lead me to know what I want to do for the rest of my life. I finally feel relieved to be able to know what I plan on doing in my future. I finally feel happy with the direction I’m heading towards even though, my parents and siblings do not necessarily agree. I finally found something I am passionate about and for that I am grateful. It feels good saying it. Thanks Communication Class 140, I owe you.
