Yes, all of us students go through the same thing during our studies. Whoever I speak to about my course, the magic question gets asked: So what are you planning to do when you've finished? I get this all the time and don't get me wrong - I really don't mind! But what I noticed is that I keep changing my mind... And the fact that I am undecided freaks me out! When I was applying for my course, I had so many great ideas and simply couldn't wait to start studying and slowly converting my dreams into reality. Now it's been two years of uni, two more to go... and I already had million ideas about my future, and what's bloody scary is that I'm gonna wake up tomorrow with hundred more! I wish I had a nice plan, a goal that I was working towards, something I could really focus on and go mad about. But I'm afraid I don't... I just enjoy bioanthropology as it is. As mentioned already, I keep coming up with jobs and things I would love to do after becoming an anthropologist. There are so many areas of anthropology that I find extremely interesting. One of the reasons why it's so difficult to just say: "yes this is what I want to do" is probably that anthropology as a field is very wide and covers various topics and issues... which on the other hand makes it so fascinating! I considered becoming an academic; teaching science in secondary schools; being a journalist and writing awesome anthropological articles; working for primate conservation organizations; working in a lab and playing with genes; working in pathology centres; assisting doctors in hospitals; even making my own anthropological TV shows! There are so many unbelievably exciting opportunities to be taken, but my approaches are still very vague... It annoys me so much! A lot of student fellows have clearly defined plans and stick with them (i.e. they choose specific modules that cover their interests). And I just sometimes feel like this random girl that has now idea what she wants to do in the future. Is this something bad? My mum keeps telling me that I've only been at uni for two years and there is much more for me to discover and that one day I'll just know what I really want to do. Well, the most important is that I definetely would looove to be an anthropologist, because everything what's human is totally outrageous! I'm only doing a BSc, I have a lot ahead of me. I shall just wait and see...
