When I Grow Up, I Wanna Be...

You always hear little kids say this when they're in elementary school, and no matter what they say, they know it's going to happen. They're going to be an airplane pilot or country singer or space ranger. If only we could be that sure when it comes time to choose a career for real.

I have been struggling in deciding on a major in college. I don't want to go into something and waste my time and money if I'm just going to change my mind. I've already gone through architecture and psychology. Neither of the two are for me I've discovered. You know, it's very easy to figure out what you don't want to do. I wish there was some way that was just as easy to decide what you DO want to do.

However, I may be narrowing the field, finally. This is actually something that has always been in the back of my mind: accounting. I've always liked math. I'm good at it and I understand it easily, or at least more so than any other subject. I have recently talked to a few resources and the more I look into it, the better I feel about the idea. There's a demand for accountants, so I know I could get a job, and they make pretty good money. I also found out that in order to get your accounting degree you must take a lot of business management and administration classes. So with an accounting degree I could actually go into several directions.

I have at least two more semesters of general classes but after that a decision MUST be made. I'd like to ask all of you to pray for me as I go through these next semesters that I will know for sure what God's will is for my life.
