Bad decisions with happy ending

And the today's topic is.. why I choose my career. To begin with the post I would like to tell an anecdote about the first profession that went trough my head, when I was five years old my mom asked me what I wanted to be when I was big and my answer was "I want to be a mom", if you ask me today the same question I think twice.
But now talking serious everything started in my childhood when the teachers at school said I would be a poet, remember it now is funny but They insisted that I had skills at my young age, skills that I left with the time and change by subjects like maths and chemistry.
Already when I realized that I should choose my career for my entire life I was too confused and change my options every week I thought about astronomy until philosophy. I finally decided to study Chemical Engineering because I liked the environment and I thought I would have more tools to contribute studying that.
I didn't get to the university I wanted but I did go to the career I wanted. I studied it two years until I can't stand it anymore I cried saying I preferred veterinary. I hated absolutely everything from the treatment of women for being minority to the academic environment so I left.
Currently I'm studying Natural Renewable Resourses Engineering a career that I love and combines all my skills from social to environment, I think it was one of the best decisions and I hope someday to be able to contribute to the rest with my career.  

I leave my Flickr with photos that I like and relate to my career.
