It's Spring Quarter of my Junior year in college. Where has time gone? In exactly 1 year I will be walking the grand UCLA graduation stage! What comes with this?
Nervousness
Worry
Fear
PRIDE
Will I find a job when I graduate? Most likely not....... After all, I am a humanities future grad. Do I regret it? OF COURSE NOT. I love what I study and would not have it any other way. When I began school here, I was in the STEM field and hated it. I was unhappy and was not passionate at all for my studies. Switching over to humanities has made me a much happier person! I've also decided that I will be submitting an application for graduate school. Scary.
A little late, I have also discovered that I love languages. I want to learn as many languages as I possibly can-- even if it means being in school the rest of my life (while working, of course). I admit that I am still having a really difficult time (economically speaking), I mean UCLA does cost over $30K a year...... But, I know that this will pass. Things always get better. One day, I will look back at all these struggles and know they were worth it.
Success is not linear. It has a lot of curves and edges; the goal is to keep traveling and moving forward.
