BOO-Maya Creamer

       The thing that scares me the most is the idea of never figuring out who I am and who I want to be. I mean sure, I have interests, and ideas for the career I want to pursue, the family I want to have, and all the other things that will happen in the future, but I'm worried that I'll never be happy with my life, or that I'll make the wrong choice. What if I don't choose the right college or the right major? Or what if I figure out, too late, that I don't like being a teacher? Or what if, god forbid, I look back on my life when I'm older and realize that I'm not happy with what I've done? These questions haunt me nearly every day, and make me worried for the future, and the choices I'll make that will determine the course of my life. I look around and see so many adults, and even teenagers, who have their lives all figured out, and seem confident and happy with their plan. I want to be happy, just like everyone else, but I don't have that same confidence in who I am and who I want to be that seems to come so easily to some people. Sometimes, I think about who I want to be remembered as, and I have absolutely no idea. And that terrifies me.
