I wish I would have listened to my heart a little more before college!
I got a civil engineering degree from a big 10 school - I worked my butt off, seriously - I got one B, and all the rest A's throughout college - and that B was in an elective - Child Development. Which was my favorite class, but I couldn't spend the time on it.
Anyways, I hate engineering. I have worked inside designing, I have worked with consultants, and I tried working outside with contractors for too long. I was stressed out ALL the time, and I just don't like it. I'm very good at math/science (I would be an awful writer!  ) But I just don't have a passion for it.
I think most of you know - I quit my job a couple months ago, and it was a huge ordeal. My parents were VERY upset, and still kinda are.
But now I'm struggling with - what am I supposed to be? Why am I here? What do I really WANT to do?
My passions are kids, and sports. I would love to own a daycare, or to be a swimming coach. But like everyone says, $ was on my mind when I went to college.
Feel like I've wasted too many years of my life, and now I'm confused!
It sounds like a lot of people go through this though
