Just a typical Thursday of the average college student, right? No big deal. YES. Big deal. While walking down an academic hall at any college you may hear the phrase "I changed my major..again" numerous times in a humous tone. But, it's not a small decision. That change didn't take place on a whim (hopefully at least :) ) it had much thought into it. I know mine did. I came into college thinking I was going to be a Biology major and be in the hospital despite my fear of needles and clumsiness. It only took a few short weeks of gametes, flow charts and dissections for me to go running as far away from the science building as possible. Those boring white lab coats and make-up ruining goggles were not for me. As glad as I was to leave from that I was just as frightened about finding something else. I'm only 18 years old. I can't even sleep without the T.V on, how am I supposed to know what I want to do with my life? I was expected to do something in the medical field and that was what scared me the most, disappointing and being looked down upon by others.
Today, when I signed my name at the bottom of my change of major form I had the most exhilarating feeling overcome me. Because this what God wanted me to do. Not mom, dad or society. I prayed about it and talked about it and all I ever got was, "what do you love?" Everyone knows that answer.
Clothes. A lot of them. All the time.
I also love people. So, what better field than business? I've only taken 101 thus far but you have a basic exchange between consumer and retailer, right? I'd be dealing with people, which I love, and granting them the opportunity to share the love for clothes I do.There's a plan. I just know it. I have one drawn out but He's been known to change that faster than a cool South Carolina morning turns into a humid afternoon.
That's completely okay with me.
He is going to place me right where He wants to maybe that's not in the corporate office of marking at Lilly Pulitzer or maybe it is. I'm just so excited to see how it works out. Everything in my life is as close to perfect as ever and I'm glad that now my career path is headed in that direction!xoxo,
Your new business major
