Time To Be Honest Part 2 BEDA

So the next thing from my list of major life issues is what I'm gonna do in the future. After visiting FAU today it felt very fitting.  I'm a straight A student and I always have been. I've never had to try very hard in school to get my graded and it's led other people to expect certain things from me. My PSAT scores are in the 95, 97, and 99th percentiles in writing, math, and reading respectively.  Today I had an admin at my school ask me about going to med school. A lot of adult have asked me about med school, law school, or even Harvard/ other Ivy Leagues. It's not a question to them of what I want to do. It's just expected that that's what I'm going to do. I'm supposed to be a doctor, lawyer, or CEO.  My parents are a little better, but not fully. When I expressed an interest in writing my dad decided I should be a journalist. He still brings it up even after me telling him I don't want to. More than once. My mom is terrified. She wants me to stay close to home, but doesn't care what I study. I'm supposed to get married, have kids, and be successful.  So I've done a lot of research and thinning. I want to major in either creative writing or child psych, probably psych. That's what I WANT. I also know my first choice school is Cornell. I'm also looking into Penn State, Syracuse, and Vanderbuilt among others.  As for even longer term future. I want to write novels. But as a 'real job' I want to work with social work/children. As per getting married and having kids I don't know. I want kids. I want them relatively young. Marriage is complicated though, because of my sexuality. If I fall for a girl then it's all more complicated.  I have faith things will get clearer. That's what I live on.  May life be as awesome as you are and DFTBA!
