College mail has a habit of cheering my spirits.
I recently received a pamphlet from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). I flipped through the contents and realized that MIT would be a great place for me if I were to pursue a career in technology or engineering. I'm still not sure what I'm going to be majoring in at college; I know what I'm interested in, but unsure what to focus on and seriously consider as a future career option.
I'm still feeling uneasy about going forward into education -- mainly because I'm not sure if that's the path I really want, or whether it's a path that I'd want to do if there was nothing else for me. It's mainly my backup option right now because if I'm really unclear as to what I should major in, I could always double major in education and another subject, and teach in the future.
Blah, I still have to worry about my exams coming up this year. Hopefully after I take those tests and get the results back, I'll know what colleges are realistic choices. When I received my PLAN and SCORE exams, I realized that both of them displayed results pointing me towards my future career -- possibly in medicine.
That cheered up my parents.. I don't think I want to become a doctor. I have the talent and the diligence to become a medical student and eventually a doctor, but I don't have the patience. Science is fun to play around with, but I think becoming a doctor would be a lifelong investment that I'm not willing to make at this moment.
Grr, indecisiveness sucks.

plans,
