The one question that college students hate answering... What are your plans after you graduate?
Um, back up; be kind and rewind. Can I please enjoy my college years and then get back to you on that? How do we respond? Well, we have a golden answer we always use that makes it sound like we have it all figured out. But let’s be honest... a lot of us really don’t know! I changed my major this semester. I thought I knew what I wanted to do. I realized I didn’t want to do it, and (like we say in New York)... "badda bing - badda boom", now I’m a Liberal Studies major.
I talked to this cool guy in my World Geography class named Austin. Basically, he pointed out that attending college is clearly more common today than ever before. Because of the economic crisis and lack of job opportunity, he suggested selecting a major that would be a constant need in society, regardless of economic circumstances. I think that’s a great idea. Thanks Austin!
So here’s the b r e a k d o w n :
God created us all differently. We have different likes and dislikes, personalities and passions. If you ask for my advice, I suggest you find yours and match it to a major. Next, graduate and take on the big bad world! Take advantage of the endless opportunities offered here at CBU, do what you’re called to do. Live your purpose! Don’t hesitate to ask questions, be daring, even if you have to change majors a million times to figure out what fits you. Find what your good at and do it well. College is a time to experience, so before you get stuck in a career that you don’t want, switch it up a bit. And hey, if you have it all figured out, kudos to you.
ALRIGHT… off to eat pizza and play some Rock Band 2 with my roomies and friends.
Please know that if “Being a Rock Star” was a major, I would be ALL over that.
