You know it's amazing how quickly life can throw curveballs at you. For years I've planned on serving a mission, it was my life's goal from the time I was little. My mom served a mission and it inspired me, seemed it was the thing to do. And yet suddenly I'm not sure that that's where I'm supposed to go in life.
I have to admit that I don't think I've ever been so confused as I am right now at this moment.
When it came to college I knew exactly where I wanted to go, BYU-I, there were no doubts. I applied a couple other places only because my mom told me to. BYU-I was where I was supposed to go and I knew it would work out.
As for what degree I wanted, that was a bit of a challenge. I knew what career I wanted to get into, I just wasn't sure what degree I needed to get. But that worked out perfectly too. BYU-I started a new program this fall, the Humanities program. It's perfect for getting a job in a museum. It covers history through art, literature, and architecture. How does it get more perfect than that.
But here I am at age 20 a brief 5 months from turning 21 and I have no idea what's going to happen. The worst part is I hate not being in control and knowing what's happening. I promise I'm not a control freak, I love roller coasters and other exciting things. But I like to be in control of what's happening in my life and right now I'm afraid I'm not. Things are changing, I'm changing, and life is happening. So what will be will be and hopefully I'll love it.
