Somehow,I never thought I'd have to choose between all the "dream careers" I had always envisioned. But now,I suddenly found I was a SENIOR. That word only meant one thing: GET A JOB. The thought of picking just one thing to do with the rest ofmy lifeseemed utterlydepressing; I had simply avoided the idea for the last twenty years. It wasn't that Cedarville College had not adequately armed me for this face-off. I dideverythingIwassupposed to do.

Itook"EmploymentStrategies" to force myself to encapsulate my entire life on one sheet of paper. I switched my major from Pre-Med after a girl fainted on my feet during a recital and I stood up screaming. I regularly devoured articles like"TheTop25Careers for the 90's," and worked one summer at an internship. Nonetheless, I still don't know. In fact, I don't think I will ever know "What I Want To Be When I Grow Up." I startled myself at a recent interview when I realized that four years at Cedarville had taught me much more about people and the truly important things in life than it had abouthowto pourmyselfinto ajob.
