It's funny how personal you can get with strangers. But that isn't too surprising, is it?
We had friends of our family over just earlier for a brief visit and what do relatives like to talk about? Their kids and their kids' career goals, of course. >.> I hate talking about/listening to this stuff but maybe that's only because I don't know what to do with my own life yet and being faced with the question reminds me so. I think going straight into a university was a bad idea, considering that I wasn't anywhere close to knowing what I wanted to pursue. Had I gone to a community college, I could've saved so much money (borrowed money that I later have to return) and transferred when I was more prepared (the point of going to a cc). /: I know all this already (I've have thought my decisions over many times), so I guess I'm just sharing this to get it out.
Does anyone else have the same problem? What are some career paths you guys are pursuing?

idk, schools here start later too when it comes to deciding. europe u have to decide much earlier.
don't worry about past decisions on going straight to university. And don't feel need to rush to the choice. If it's meant for you to study it'd naturally come to you, make sure it's something you'd want. As annoying as uncertainty is, having faith is very important :). It'll work out!!
Thanks Amanyaman! I'm already a second-yr though. I've declared a major but it's just as valuable as NOT having gone to a university, I think. I'd be less worried if I just knew what I want to pursue... you know? Like, I think I could settle with a low income so long as I love what I do. I just... don't know what I love? :/ I think that's usually the case though.
I also agree with you! Believing in yourself is definitely crucial! The moment you stop... you start to put all sorts of irrational and unnecessary limits on yourself and achieve very little.
