You sound very much like myself. I never really knew what I wanted to be growing up. I really still don't know what I want to do and I'm a college graduate. The pressure from the parents was extreme, always be the best, graduate top in your class, know what you want and go for it. But it's not that easy, is it? Even now, being in a good career, I'm not sure that this is what I want to do with the rest of my existence. I've been thinking of going back to school, getting some more education under my belt. I love to write, creative writing in high school and college was my favorite course, maybe some journalism courses or the like would suit me. As far as you wanting to cook, good on you mate. Cooking is a lot of fun and it's something you can utilize in many aspects of your life, not just in a career. If this is something that you find enjoyable, cherish it. And as far as the folks are concerned, they have to live with the decisions that you make in your life. It took some time for my parents to adjust to my career as a massage therapist, but they embrace it now. The only person you can truly please in this life is yourself. There is no point in trying to please everyone else and looking back to regrets. And if anything, be comforted in the fact that even a complete stranger can empathize with you and be encouraging.
