This is a question that has always bugged me, "what class did you like in highschool?" I loved gym, but got good grades in english and was curious about math and the sciences. I excelled in sports and eventually went on and played college football but was never really to focus on my interests or skills. Sure I enjoyed my role as a football player, but I could never really figure out which major I should choose. To this day I have an interest in engineering and computer science but after doing research and learning abou the complex math involved, I just dont have those skills. Using auto cad or designing on proengineer is still interesting to me but i lack the abstract mathematical thinking. In college I explored all the majors, business, science, engineering, communication, and finally setteled on sociology. I've worked as a youth counselor making 13.00 bucks an hour under a supervisor who has his GED. Now im going back to be a guidance ocunselor, which is funny because how do i counsel someone when i never really figured out my career of choice. I think I am onto something in choosign to study to be a guidance counselor but I keep askign myself if I just constructed my values and ideas to be a helper based on what is universally a good thing. I enjoy helping, supporting adn what better way than counseling. I dont know the meaning of life but I have some ideas adn can give some good advice............................................ .................................................. ....im still searching what it is im truly good at, i love athletics, seeing new places and meeting new faces......................that is what i know for sure now.............as for my other skills im still trying to decide if they were constructed in my mind or actual skills
