What do you want to be when you grow up?

I’ve probably been asked that question a thousand times (exaggerating) from family and friends over the past year or so (that and where I’m going to college next year which I always have to leave unanswered since I don’t know yet).

I used to want to be a vet, but I kind of realized that that fantasy was pretty unrealistic for me. I would be able to do the work. However, I have a huge vision disability which really wouldn’t be a strong suit if I went into any type of medicine, and I really don’t want to be the one having to euthanize the animals (even though I think it’s needed when they’re terminally ill).

I currently think it would be neat to be able to go into something like computer graphics or animation. I like making things look different ways as well as creating new ways to view things. I’d like to try that out in college (since I really didn’t have the time to get enough exposure to it in order to see whether or not I really liked it in high school). However, if that turns out to not be my area, I also like working with the English language, and I think it would be cool to be able to work in administration for a university or something in the future. Maybe I could be the one writing the little viewbooks for prospective students in the future. Ha!
