What Am I Going To Do With My LIFE?!

Ahhh, college. So exciting yet scary. It makes me go through a plethora of emotions. It makes me wonder where I'll go (goodness I wish it could be Duke) or what I'll study (HA! Good luck to me with that one) or how much it is going to cost me. I have no idea! There are so many things I want to do with my life, I want to write a book, become a singer (though I have stage fright!) maybe try my hand at marine biology, open an antique store where I am the boss, become a famous chef, learn more than one language or at least become fluent in Spanish and save lives. What do these things all have in common? Absolutely nothing. So I'm screwed right? Well not exactly. I think I've figured out the bottom line to whatever profession I want to do. I want to save lives. I want to be able to change the lives of people for the better, and not just by donating money or walking a mile. I want to be the one to catch the bad guy, or walk a family through a tough time, or fight for someone who can't do it on their own. I believe this is why I ultimately want to do something with the FBI. Maybe work with the BAU (Behavioral Analysis Unit) who knows? I know a lot of people probably think I could never do that (especially not have a gun) but I think I could. I could see myself being an agent and fighting crime (not in a terribly cheesy way) and while I am at it, maybe right a best selling novel! All I know if that I want to directly help a person, not through different actions, but by actually saving someone. Maybe I'm delusional, but until I figure out that I am (which I'm quite certain I am not), I'm going to keep dreaming about doing this. I will become some sort of agent or detective, and I will help protect and save lives.
