3+2 is not 5
Hello! My name is Andrea and I’m 21 years old. Nowadays I’m studying the English speciality of the teacher training degree at the University of Valencia, but before arriving here there a story behind.
When I was a young girl and I thought about what I wanted to be when I were old, lots of ideas passed by my mind. I thought about being a hairdresser, a farmer, a cooker… When I become a teenager, I wanted to be a nurse, a designer and finally a teacher. In bachillerato I deny the idea of being a nurse because I choose the social area, so my options were between design and teaching trainer. It was a difficult election, but finally, I thought I would prefer work in something that would let me help or contribute with something important to people, and by this reason I’m here now.
But far of being where I want, I’m still looking for who I am and what I really want, because I don’t know.
I like children and being with them, but also design, create something new, and I would love being in a hospital taking care of people too. And my frustration is music, I don’t know how to play any instrument, but I think it’s magical when a person take a guitar, a piano, a violin and begin to make music, and I would like to be able, but I’m not.
Till this course I never have thought as many about this, about what I really want to be, what I really want to do, and by this reason I feel a little disappointed with myself when I think I’m almost finishing a degree but I don’t know if I am at the correct place.
