When I Grow Up...

The question when I was younger was, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I wanted to be a teacher for a long time. Then I had fanciful ideas of becoming a novelist of some kind. The problem was, I couldn't even get a few pages written without completely changing my mind. Then I would come up with a whole new "better" idea. Each time this happened I was sure it would be the one idea that would work. It still hasn't worked...
I recently discovered a love of foreign languages, and was considering becoming a translator or interpretor someday. I am taking two foreign language classes as well as Honors English. Part of me thinks that I could really make it in that field of work, but my mind is constantly changing. We are doing a careers project in English class. We have to pick an occupation and do research on it, then we have to do a presentation. For me it is a hard project. I am the most indecisive person in the world. So for now I'm just stuck with my indecision... I think, the question shouldn't be what do you want to be when you grow up, but rather what will you want to be when you grow up?
