This ride called life

Today I found myself pondering about where my life is taking me.

I have found that throughout the internships I have been completing there are so many different directions in which I can take- but which one of those is the right path for me?

I started off my degree in accounting. I have always looked up to my older cousins; who are both very successful accountants. When asked what I want to be when I get older as a child, I would always answer "I'll own my own accounting firm"...  Clearly I wasn't the average kid.

My dreams starting to plan out quite perfectly when I received a scholarship to study accounting at university whilst still studying in year 12. From there I gain an undergraduate position at a local accounting firm BM&Y.

It was a year into my studies and work that I realised that sitting at a desk, drinking coffee and tapping at a computer is not what I had in my for my line of work (I haven't changed the coffee habit yet).

I am a people person. I dance, sing and am constituently energetic. I enjoy a good conversation with people, and approach strangers with ease. I do not have a problem with standing in front of a crowd, directing people, or sitting back and listening... but one thing I do love is being surrounded with people.

So now, three years on, I am studying a double major of marketing and public relations. I am meeting people, I am talking, creating and achieving many things I did not dream of 3 years ago, however now my studies are coming to an end, it's the next step that I am so confused about.

This is my third events planning job whilst at an internship, and I must say I love the thrill of it! I thrive off stress and that seems very peculiar, even to me, but somehow it pushes me to get onto the work, and even make me organise myself outside of the work environment. Maybe, just maybe, I have found my dream job... I suppose we will all find out soon enough.
