My college life journey

I finally could be sure of what I want to major in, just in my senior year. Up to my junior year, I was still in between. This four year experience has been a long journey for me. Started up as a freshman in the College of Communication, majoring in PR and taking all those communication classes. They are interesting, but I didn't feel belong. I was trying to be someone else that wasn't just me. I was not trying to find my own niche, but rather trying to acquire the knowledge from zero --and it didn't work out. I felt too much stress and burdened. So, after long and stressing process, I made up my mind and transferred to the College of Business Administration knowing that I wouldn't be able to reverse back. Studying in the College of Business Administration, I started to feel better and really like the facility. For a while, I was still confused. I wanted to declare as a Business Administration major, but figured out that it may not be the best way to try finding a job after I graduate. So, I narrowed down my choices into Finance, Information Technology, and Marketing. Now, I'm finally settled with my choice: Marketing and Information Technology. I like these two fields of education and would like to pursue them as a career one day. They offer challenges to me, yet I still am interested. They are exciting and give me the curves to learn and leverage my knowledge. I am happy with my choice, and hoping to get some internship experience in order to help me get my full time position. It is a little harder for me for being an F-1 student to find opportunities, but I am not giving up just yet. I am not giving up.
