i really am such a pessimist when it comes to figuring out what i want to do. i always think of the negative stuff about the job. soooo...i'm going to do a pro con list. feel free to add any that i don't think of.
Interior Design Pro:
-i love a good interior, i love fabrics and surfaces and all that good stuff
-would get to work with fun design people
Interior Design Con:
-i'm not a very good drawer, i would have to work on that A LOT
-might have to go to ccad which would be expensive
-finding a job where i can really do what i want might be hard (designing interiors of houses)
-would have to dress up everyday (petty, i know, but i really do think about this)
-i'm not very good at being creative when i'm forced to be creative
---------------------------------------------------------------

Psychology Con:
-grad school is a must, and i don't know if i want to force myself to make that decision now by choosing this major
-not really working as a team, and i like being part of a team
-i don't know if i would enjoy hearing about people's problems all day long

-i have no clue what i would teach
-------------------------------------------------------------------
and the only reason i would want to do nursing is so that i could work on the maternity ward, and what are the chances that i could find that job when i graduate? if i didn't, i'd be doing stuff i prolly didn't like to do.
AND you should do this because it would help me: leave a comment naming one career that works with babies/toddlers.
i need so much help it's not even funny.
