just don't blame me if it's not always chipper

Tuesday, September 28, 2004

Last week my journalism professor asked me if I'd gotten an internship yet and I was forced into telling him I didn't want to be a reporter anymore. He looked at me kind of surprised and said, "Oh, that's too bad" in a surprisingly sincere voice, so I just didn't have the heart to tell him it was his class last semester that ruined any hopes I'd had of being a reporter.

That's what I've learned at college. I've learned that I don't really want to be what I thought I wanted to be. In December I graduate with a degree that qualifies me to do what I don't want to do. Listening to the supervisor of the family crimes unit for the Duluth Police Department speak in my journalism class yesterday, I decided I want to work in law enforcement. Is it too late to change majors?
