When I was little, I constantly changed my mind on what I wanted to be when I grew up. Now that I'm about to enter college, I still have no idea. Below five things I wanted to do when I was little.

Horse Trainer

When I was around eight years old I was absolutely obsessed with horses, like very girl was at the time. I had two horses growing up and boarded them at a stable near my house. I can remember wanting to be a horse trainer for the longest time. I thought it was a really cool job and what's better than getting to be around horses right!? As I got older I started to develop new hobbies and interest so sadly my dream of being a horse trainer will never come true.

A Vet

This job is very similar to wanting to be a horse trainer, so I guess it makes a lot of sense that I would want to be a vet two. I have always been surrounded by a lot of different animals and had a lot of them.

Teacher

When I was in about third grade, I had a really great teacher who had a huge impact on school for me. My little sister and I used to play the teacher, where I was the teacher and she was the student. I slowly realized that teaching was defiantly not for me.

When Grays Anatomy was getting really popular, I decided that I wanted to work in a hospital like them and save peoples lives. I quickly realized that of course hospitals are not really like grays anatomy and there not nearly as much Rama. I also realized that I would have to go to school for like 13 years if I decided to do that.

Now that I'm entering college, I've started to really think about what I want to major in and do for the rest of my life. Nursing has always been something I've been really interested in and as of right now i'm going to pursue a BSN and hopefully go on to be a nurse practitioner or go into health care administration.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
