I wish I knew what I wanted to do with my life. I feel like with college approaching I seriously need to make some choices so I know where I should be in school.
I’ve narrowed it down to a lot of unrealistic options:
- Forensics. Though I am a horrible math student, I have always been good at Biology and those types of related subjects. The whole idea of forensic work fascinates me.
(I told my mother this, and she very positively informed me that when I graduate and get my first job in the subject, she’ll buy me a dog collar and black lip stick.)
- Young Adult Author. This would require me overcoming my fear of letting people read what I write and writing stories for someone other than my cousin. She and I have been coming up with and writing our own novel-like stories for over two years, but I have to get where I can let other people read it. I’m bad at blogging, but I’m a pretty decent writer.
- Theatrical and Movie Makeup. I’ve come to realize I do not have a real love for acting, but instead I’m in love with the idea of acting. I do, however, love being behind the scenes and working with the people. I’ve always thought that being a makeup artist for theatre and film would be interesting.
(Kelsey, we could work together!)In an entirely unrealistic desire, I’d love love love to act for television. I’ve let that one go though.
I have some decisions to make.
Don’t think that your dreams are unrealistic. I really want to have a career in forensics, actually I want to be a Forensic Anthropologist. And I hate when people ask what I want to major in college and then go on to say that I’ll most likely change my mind. Whatever happened to you can be anything you want to be. I know it’s unrealistic, but have some faith people. Dream. It is possible to accomplish difficult things, even things that seem impossible and unlikely to happen, with a lot of hard work. Okay, my spiel is done.
things i want to do in 2010:

oooh, i love knitting! if only you lived nearby, then i could teach you! right now, i’m knitting a baby hat for my small group leader’s baby.

"We can’t expect everybody to be there for us, all at once. So it’s a lucky thing that really, all you need is someone."

my notebook is filled with these
"Either commit completely, or not at all. But if you do commit, be ready for pain, be ready for opposition! If you cringe or flinch, you are a coward. So if you can’t suffer for your cause, don’t commit. The last thing the world needs is another coward."

O Come, O Come Emmanuel | Sufjan Stevens
A favorite Christmas song of mine. I hadn’t heard this version before, but it is good. I love this season so much.
