Only a few really lucky people know what they really want at your age. I'm 25, have a degree in engineering geoogy, and i've made it as a consultant engineer. This is what i wanted to be at school and college so i chose it for uni too. You'd think i would be happy doing something i always wanted growing up? Problem is i have no real interest in this anymore, so it just goes to show that childhood aspirations mean shit sometimes. The things that truely interest me like forensics and criminal psychology i will need to go back to uni to study, so i'm quitting my well paid job, gonna travel for a year or two and see if i still want to be a csi or criminal profiler after that, and if so go back and study for it. Life isn't about going to school, then college, then uni, get the 9to5 job, get married have 2.5 children, work until you are 65, retire and finally die, knowing exactly what you want every step of the way. your ideas, dreams and aspirations will change as you mature and sometimes when you get what you think you wanted you realise you were wrong, so you start over. dont stress too much and just go with the flow, you seem smart and will probably work something out
