What Is Life After College?

In This Article:

Sure I have figured out my major but what happens after I get the major?

*if you haven't read my article about my major choice go check it out!*

It's a reasonable question though, what happens after the major? Being in a IAS major and taking such a wide variety of classes its hard to answer peoples big question which is "What type of job are you going to get with this major?" and honestly I really don't know. Now think about this for a second if my major is all over the place with the classes I can take, wouldn't it be a reasonable guess that maybe my work choice could be all over the place as well? Because it is very true, so here is my list of things I enjoy.

1. Cooking/Baking

The people who know me they know I enjoy doing both of these things. The only problem I see is that if you go and work at a restaurant than you have no creativity which is the best part of cooking or baking.

2. Early Childhood Development

Little kids are awesome in my opinion. The little babies until the age of about kindergarten–1st grade is a cool age. Now, I couldn't be a teacher because that isn't my major and includes much more school, but would I be able to do other things with kids that age (daycare, or that type of thing)? or would I have to go and get additional learning in Early Childhood Development.

3. Something to do with writing

I have somehow gotten into this world of writing and I have no idea where that came from, but when it comes to writing I could literally write about anything. Food. Coffee. World issues. Random Stuff. There are a lot of possibilities, but can I really see myself writing for the rest of my life?

4. True Crime Shows

The amount of different crime shows I watch is ridiculous, and I am not talking about Criminal Minds or NCIS (even though those shows are also good) I am talking about actual true crime. Some of the shows are Dateline, 48 hours (I don't personally watch), Making a Murderer, Snapped, Forensic Files, and many many more. There are many documentaries that are also about true crime and the amount of those I watch is also high.

Why do I like these types of shows? Really, I'm not sure. Some thing about it is just interesting. Why these people decided to kill other people. How the crimes were solved or on some occasions framed. The forensics of it all because every case has different types of forensics used. The whole physiological part of why someone does what they do is interesting. I am just very intrigued by these types of shows and the stories that come with them.

5. Photography

This isn't something that I could see anything happening with just photography itself but it would possibly come in handy with some of these ideas above.

Currently I am a lost little college student trying to finish my major, while thinking about what the heck am I going to do with the rest of my life.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
