Friday is the deadline for all college applications to be turned in to my counselor. This really doesn't seem like a big deal to me as I've already applied to all my schools and decided where I want to go. But of course, it's never that easy.
It's been a long, stressful struggle to find a college that's the right fit for me and I feel like I finally found it, SLU. However, this doesn't fit into my mom's dreams for me which involve Vanderbilt and med school.
The more I thought about it, Vanderbilt is a lot of money for an experience that I could get at SLU. When people ask me what I'm going to be I automatically spit out the answer "pediatrician" without a second thought. Today, I wondered when I decided that I wanted to be a pediatrician and I realized that I never did. It's my mother's dream. I do want to go to med school but honestly, I don't do well with kids.
Now that I've picked a school that I like, it fails to satisfy everyone else and I am back to square one with a career decision. Whoever said senior year was a joke was wronggg. Hopefully, I'll come to the realization that the place everyone else wants me to be in life and the place God wants me to be are probably not the same. Hopefully I make the right decision!
Psalm 18:30
"As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in Him. "
