week three

It's interesting how people can have vastly different lives but can still end up in the same place or situation. Over break, I went on a few accepted students days at colleges and got the chance to meet people who were planning on pursuing the same major as me. It struck me how all of these people came from different places and had lived through different experiences but somehow came to the conclusion that they wanted to do the same things with their lives. I was curious as to what drew them to this specific major, and what had caused them to feel that this major was right for them. I wonder if some of them have the same motivations as me, or if they chose to pursue this field based on some other reason or experience they had that impacted them profoundly.
