#gathered-thoughts.

We were strangers acquaintances, friends, maybe something more but now? We're strangers, again.

The winter wind has set in and has frozen the living, breathing plants. The animals begin their rough journey in their survival through this winter. The trees are bare from their gorgeous embellishments and are stripped to the bone showing the world their flaws.

The world is preparing itself for the change of the season. Things will be forgotten, left behind. We'll all start a new paragraph, or even chapter in our lives.

Are you ready?

I've thinking about a collection of different things.

College, for one. I don't know. I really want to go out-of-state, but the tuition is extremely expensive. I want to study abroad but I don't know about the homesickness I would experience.

Another thing I've been thinking about is what a want to be when I'm in the real world. I've been looking into medical, specifically forensics. I've always had that love of science and the human body and such. I love those crime shows like Bones, it's my favorite so far.

Another thing I've been looking into is international business. It seems interesting with the travelling and learning about different cultures and all that. I already have experience with business through my parents' restaurant. And I definitely want to start my own place. Something like a restaurant, bookstore with a small coffee shop, or maybe sell my own merchandise. I'm pretty creative - ish.

I've also been contemplating what language to learn if I'm going into international business. I already know English, Vietnamese, and I'm in my fourth year of learning Spanish and plan on continuing to learn. I really want to add onto my list of languages that I know. I'm debating about learning Mandarin, Korean, and/or French.

Another thing I've been contemplating is music. I'm musically talented and plan on auditioning but I don't know. I know how to play the piano, guitar and violin. I can sing. Ughhh. Music's always had some sort of impact on me...

I've also been thinking about my undergrad and graduates for college, like what I want to minor and major in. So far if I go the business route I'm majoring in international business and global marketing (I want to double major). Then I'm minoring in music. With medical? I'm not quite sure what to major or minor in.

I'm at that stage where I'm just thinking it over and trying to make my final decisions so I don't have to worry about it anymore.
