    I've been thinking a lot and I still have not decided what I will do.
    In a few months I should give my documents to the university.
    My parents will pay; I just have to make my decision - what I want to study! No, I know what I WANT to study (literature is the thing I love all my life) but I also know that in my country it is so fucking hard to find a normal job with this profession.
    My dad has an enterprise and I know that he is planning me to work with him, so for me the only logical thing is to study Economy.
    The thing is - I don't like it! It's not my kind of thing at all!
    I was thinking... Maybe I can study Literature and the work with my dad!

    God!!!! It is so hard to think about the future!

    i would recommend not stressing over it since you're not even in college yet

    your mind will change every week for your first year

    worry about it down the road, when it becomes less worry and more "oh"

    Study what you love...enough said...

    You will regret it in the future if you do anything else...

    A lot of times, all you need is a degree to get ANY job...doesn't necessarily mean you have to take a job in something that you've studied...at least here in the states.

    Exactly. I began with studies in hard sciences to pursue medicine, but I didn't enjoy the classes. entertained the notion of accounting for a semester but didn't enjoy the classes. Decided if i was spending that kind of money and time I should focus on what interests me...politics...I'll use my liberal arts degree to do something

    Take general studies your first year and then decide. Pick something that will make you good money and something that you won't hate.

    The point is that she cant. She has to decide before her first year starts.
