I really don't remember what I wanted to be when I was little. Probably a teacher as that's what my mom was, or an interior designer becuase I was forever decorating and redecorating my Barbie house. I went to college not really knowing what I wanted to major in, but thought maybe I would get a secondary education degree so I could teach high school. I got into Journalism after the death of Princess Diana (I remember sitting in the computer lab in my dorm late at night and reading all the articles online and thinking how cool it was that people got to disseminate information around the world like that) and stuck with it because it was easy (though maybe not necessarily what I wanted to do). Now that I've been out of school for a few years, I've realized I like the writing and layout aspects of my job (the creative parts), but not much else. What I would really like to do is work on higher education -- as an adviser, as a program manager, as something -- and maybe even eventually get my doctorate and become a professor.
