with a bullet
I've always had two dream jobs.
1. Veterinarian
2. Comedian
I get this feeling like these are unrealistic. Being a vet is like what an eight year old says, and being a comedian is what kids who aren't funny want to do.
But as I'm struggling through college, working towards a who-knows-what degree, and my dad is asking me where I want to go with my education and my degree, I'm scared I'm making a terrible mistake by not pursuing these. Chad says that people change careers all the time and that it's not as strange or hard as it seems, so even if I get on the wrong track now, I can switch later. But I've already wasted all this time, and it's hard, and it's wasting more of my money and time. Do I want to keep doing it if it's not even what I really want?
I'm scared to go out on a limb to try one of these, have it turn out I can't do it or don't like it, and be even further behind. How am I supposed to know now if I want to be pre-vet or liberal arts or criminal justice or trade school or open mics?
Am I smart and dedicated enough to be a vet? Am I funny enough to be a comic? I know I can teach English, but do I want to?
I just don't get how I'm supposed to know what I want to be and do, and they always say follow your dreams, but there aren't that many vets and ballerinas and astronauts and there are a lot of grocery store clerks.
