What's a girl to do...

When you're a sophomore in college the one question plaguing you, or me, is "What do you want to do for the rest of your life?"  Well, right now, I cannot answer that, and it scares me.  After already investing nearly $100,000 at NYU I feel as though I am going nowhere.  I thought I wanted to do international relations...and I thought I wanted to be a journalist, but now I dont know.  But what I do know is that I enjoy French and that's about all the certainty I have right now.   I've come across a lot of people at NYU who have passion...passion for music, passion for acting, for singing, for film...you name it...it's there.  But I thought a lot about myself and my passion, and I really couldn't think of one thing that really captivates me.  Where does that leave me in the spectrum of, well, life.  People are supposed to know exactly what they want at 18 when they apply to college.   But why?  How does one know exactly what they want to do for the rest of their lives when they're only 18...they cant even buy alcohol legally....if you cant be trusted with alcohol at that age, how can you be trusted with a career choice?  It's ludicrous.  I know i'm not the only one persay that feels like this, who feels lost, but there's so much pressure to start your career NOW. 

Honestly right now, I'm 19 years old, I want to have fun with my friends before I have to dive headfirst into I-dont-know-what yet.  Life always throws curveballs your way and hopefully one will come in my direction.  I need a sign, or something, to help me decide what I want to do.  I truely believe dumb-luck plays a part in success.  Sometimnes people hit the jackpot because they were in the right place at the right time.  For example, although it may be a bad one, I was watching "When Supermodels Ruled the World" on VH1 and most of these women were scouted when they were boarding a plane or in a McDonalds eating a BigMac, and they became the biggest supermodels to to walk the runway. They reached superstardom on a fluke, on complete and utter DUMB-ASS LUCK! If only I could be so lucky, however, life is not that easy.  Maybe my hard work will pay off, and one of these days I will find something that interests me....but until them....I'm just chillen.
