Personal
Example: I am currently in my 9th
year of college, and on my 4th major. While it has taken me a long
time to get to the point of completion with my college education, I had to make
sure that I was choosing a career that I enjoyed doing. My parents are upset
that it has taken me this long to get my degree, but it is my future, not
theirs. I had to make sure that I am going to be happy in my career, and that I
could say, without a doubt, that this is what I want to do for the rest of my
life.
