Academic Plan

In the beginning, I wanted to have a college degree before I settle down and have a family so that I would have something to fall back on later on in my life. I then decided that I should go into something I have always enjoyed and am good at understanding, which is psychology. Well, I am enjoying learning new things so more and more I have been thinking about continuing on past an associate’s degree. I am still indecisive as to whether I will continue on or not, but I think I will see when I get closer to the end of my associates degree. I have been doing so well in school and if I continue doing well I will probably be able to have scholarships that I can apply for to continue my education, which would be a big bonus. The more I learn, the more ideas I have and the more I think about different career choices. Some of the things that I thought I might enjoy is to be a marriage councilor, or be a therapist for a business, which is becoming more and more popular. I don’t really care for the abnormalities and drug abuse parts of psychology and will probably stay away from that. The work of being a social worker for child care and the such is also not very pleasing to me and would seem like a depressing job when it comes to seeing some of the things children go through and taking them from home to home. Who knows, I am still thinking and finding out more each day, but I will probably continue on with my education and learning.
