English 3, Post 2, 'Why did I choose my major (study program)?'

 

Hi teacher: 

When I was a child I think I dreamed of working on multiple things, I imagined myself as an astronaut, firstly, because I loved to think about knowing something other than the world we know, I looked at the sky and it seemed fascinating, after I realized that it was not so simple and Realistically, I thought about being a veterinarian because I loved animals and wanted to help them, at another time I remember thinking about being an actress, and well I think those typical childhood dreams.

As time passed, when I already had to apply to the university, I felt confused and terrified to decide that I was going to study because on the one hand I wanted to study advertising, (that had been my dream throughout high school), and on the other hand there was administration public that it was a good job option, since we were always told that to choose a career you had to think about giving you both economic and labor stability.

So of course, after thinking about it a lot, and I feel that partly due to pressure from both the environment and myself, I chose Public Administration, since it was the option that was going to give me more stability, and because I was afraid, and did not know how it worked. the world in reality, now I know that it does not matter if your dream of studying a career perhaps with fewer job opportunities and less remuneration is something risky, that does not matter, what matters is feeling full in it, because in the end you are going to work in it, and you will feel satisfied and fulfilled, and maybe the way to feel really happy is much easier.

And finally I think that my university experience has had both good and bad things, but what I rescue in the end is a group of friends that I was able to make, and that has made all the stress and burden in my career much more bearable, because You realize that there are also people like you who feel overwhelmed at times and that you are not alone in that, although of course two people from that group have already changed careers.

Anyway, I feel that I can still study what I really want, or else focus on what I like about this career.

Thanks for reading me. Regards!
