Making Up My Mind
When I was a kid I used to want to be a Pediatric Nurse because I love babies so much. But as I got closer to graduating High School I began to change my mind. However, I didn’t really have another career in mind. I thought since I had always been intrigued by the movie industry that I wanted to try out being a make-up artist and a theater degree would seem fitting. Well, a family member gave me some advice and suggested not to go that route because that’s what she did and she was not even using her theater degree for her current career.
So I went to college and earned a degree in Business Administration and it has taken me a few different places in my career. However, I am occasionally bothered by the thought that I didn’t go to college for a specific line of work. For example, my brother went to college to be an Architect. Today he is an Architect. One of my friends wanted to be a teacher. Today she is a teacher. Another friend studied to be a doctor and although it took about 12 years, today she is a doctor. And here I am with my Business Administration degree. I didn’t study anything specific and I had to take a few classes I didn’t particularly care for.
Anyway, I know my type of degree can be applied to just about anything and it has come in quite handy. And although I may not have studied a specific trade, I feel the degree I hold is fitting after all. You see, I am a true entrepreneur at heart and always have been since I was in Junior High School where I started selling things I made by hand. Over the years I developed my skills and discovered I enjoy designing jewelry. Today I am a jewelry designer.
