Hello.
Here, I have this dilemma.
I do not know what to do with my life. Simply put it: I do not know what job I want.
My parents want me to go to school to become an engineer..I do not think I can do it. They give these talks that make you want to be peppy, but I do not see myself making the world a better place. I do not seem myself performing with other engineers to make something better or innovate.
On the other side, friends tell me I can be whatever I want to be. Well, what is that?
Back to my parents. They say that I will be selling myself short if I do not go through engineering. Also, that there are more opportunities in engineering than many other jobs in the US.
Over the last 4 years, I wanted to become an airline pilot, but my mother stopped me on that one and said it is too unstable of a job and that I wont be able to do it. They wouldn't even support me if I still wanted to become a pilot.
What do you guys think? I have tried the Internet, all I get are these stupid tests that give results like being an are teachers or a human rights activist and they want my address and all my information. They do not really hep me either.
From your guys experience, what should I do?
Thanks,

P.S. Please do not give me the 'You can do anything' crap line, it wont help me at all.
