Thanks for the new thread! The title is very fitting.

I was reading through the last thread a bit and wow yall are so smart! I love hearing about people's school experiences. It makes mine feel more normal a lot of my friends like knew what they wanted to do right away and graduated on time and got into their chosen career paths right away so I felt really weird being so indecisive.

That is actually really unusual...especially these days! I wish I would have went to college undecided...maybe even have taken a gap year and did something else first...but I was 27th in my high school graduating class of 366 (yes I remember this! ), was part of the Honors program, and was in NHS...so it was expected I go directly to college...but looking back...I think I would do things a lot differently.

tftnt! love the title!

Same here. If I could go back in time, I would have definitely went to school with an undeclared major and really took some time to think about what I wanted to do and not rush into anything. I would have been more than OK with going to communty college for a couple years then after deciding, transferring to a university and then going from there. There was just SO much pressure to decide what you wanted to do and it was definitely frowned upon even going to community college like it wasn't 'good enough' or you were a 'loser'. It's beyond sad that idea was pushed back then.

^ agreed all new thread so i didn't reply but to continue on from last thread you all did awesome majors I wasn't a big person with school and education i did graduate with a diploma of Graphic design did two years at tafe ( similar to community college) but half way through i knew i wasn't as talented as the others . I knew my heart lies with animals and GD is a dying art form . So i finished it tried applying for animao course but I didn't have tje money for it . So I went into the work force for awhile . 5 years ago I looked into doing dog grooming but instead I went travelling, but my friend did the course told me its worth it and now she runs her own dog grooming company haha .

So atm i did apply for the course but it got cancelled cause of the virus so I will doing it next year but it was a dual course so I am doing an online studying of animal studies which I can do now haha

You're right...it's probably graphic design. I thought it had something to do with animals.

You could always open up a dog grooming service that also does graphic design!
