As an incoming “calendar freshman” according to Dr. Shannin Schroeder, I have a few long-term goals in mind such as becoming an abnormal pediatric psychologist and starting a family.
However, I do have a few short-term goals such as graduating in 3 years instead of 4 and maintaining a GPA that stays above 3.5.
Starting next summer, I hope to get a part time job working at the local coffee shop in my hometown. I also plan on continuing my babysitting endeavors, as this gets me experience being around children who I can hopefully help in the future.
While my goals may seem simplistic at the time, I see myself achieving far beyond my stated goals. For example, changing the way my generation thinks about the classroom setting and the anxiety that comes with it. In my mind, if I can change the way an 18-year-old thinks, I can most definitely help school age children overcome mental ailments or even mental illness.
