When I was growing up on school, it seemed like everyone was focused on the future. Most little kids have dreams that they want to accomplish later in life. In high school, it seemed like everyone knew what they wanted to do except for me. Or, at least people had a direction/path in life that they were interested in. For me, this isn’t the case.

Growing up I had no clue what my future would hold. It was scary to me that one day I had to work for a living, that I wouldn’t be a kid anymore. This sort of feeling has stuck with me to this day.

Now, being in college, most people have a good idea of what they want to major in. This makes me feel behind, well at least not having a major. For me, its hard to study something that will determine your work for the rest of your life.

I knew from when I was little, a nine to five was something I never wanted. For most of my life my goal has been to just try and be as happy as possible. I find myself trying to hold on to my childhood as much as possible. I love hanging out and messing around with my friends, and knowing that this will be gone someday makes me sad.

Even though thinking about this seems counterproductive, I actually use this as motivation. This pushes me to try and find the job of my dreams. I want to eventually find a line of work/major that I’m so interested in that it doesn’t even feel like work. Hopefully someday I can find the job of my dreams.
