Ok...
1.) From elementary school and thoughout junior high school (off and on), I wanted to be a fashion desinger and a model (I would've made a good model too--I'm 5'10", pretty, thin but w/ a cute figure)...I used to draw my own designs (can draw well also), complete with the matching accessories...
I also used to make clothing for my Barbie dolls w/ my sewing machine...
2.) At some point in junior high, I wanted to be a neurosurgeon (
). I had to do quite a bit of reading on it for a class, and I found it very fascinating, until I realized how clumsy I am and that this simply would not be a good profession for me...
3.) In early high school I gave up (kind of) the dream of being a fashion designer/model, as I realized how hard it would be to achieve. I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in art, possibly art therapy. I attended a high school that is a Visual Arts Magnet, where I learned to perfect my drawing, make pottery and jewelry.
4.) I didn't end up staying at that high school...And I ended up deciding upon a career as a lawyer with aspirations of becoming a judge or trial lawyer...(I don't know why I thought a career in art would be easier to achieve than fashion design & modeling???
Both are hard to get into)...
5.) Enter college, strayed a bit from law for a while, exploring, but settled on it once again...
6.) Now, I know that I want a law degree (as well as a masters in public policy or public administration), but I don't want to practice law (at least not doing litigation or contracts anyway--I want to do policy work (analysis or contruction))...I am aalso considering exploring modeling (temporarily) while I take some time off b/w undergrad and grad school (while simutaneously working a regular office job, that is).
