What do you want to be when you grow up?

When we were younger, we were always asked "What do you want to be when you grow up?" 


Now as a "soon-to-be college graduate" I'm asked "What do you plan on doing once you graduate?"  My response "I have no idea."  Earlier this week I picked up my 10 year old cousin from school and he asked me that question and when I responded with my typical response he told me, "you better figure it out."  I was taken back and the rest of the walk home I couldn't get my mind off of his response, and since then I've thought about what I want to do with my life.  

As children we tend to say we want to be a movie star, a princess, an explorer, a super hero...etc.  It's weird to start thinking about what I want to do with my life and actually be serious about it.  I've thought about it alot over the past couple years, and I've come up with the following:
  • Nursing
  • Marketing
    • Sports Marketing
  • PR
  • Student Affairs
Nursing is crossed out because (honestly) I'm not that good at the Sciences.... haha  

I hope my work experience at HousePR will help me figure out or at least cross off something on my list.  I also hope these next two months will do the same.  In a way, its terrifying!  I am basically deciding what I want to do for the rest of my life.  (I know it doesn't have to be permanent, but I hope I can make a decision that will make me happy and I can stick with the decision for the rest of my life.)
