When you go to school you have one reason, just to get a piece of paper after the long gruesome 12 years all you receive is a piece of paper. It should not come down to just getting a piece of paper and sending you into the real world. When you graduate from high school most of us don't have a clue as to what we want to be in life and we need help figuring it out. I think college is important, but why waste the time trying to find out things you want to do in college when you could just spend a little time exploring before college and try out different careers. When people finally make a decision on what they would like to be they would have a little bit more hands-on experience rather than just reading about it in a text book and doing assignments on it. When I go to college I plan on going to Central Michigan University and get a degree in communications. I've already practiced my career I would like to follow which is photojournalism, which would require me to travel the world while taking photographs and writing about what I feel and see. I've always enjoyed photography and I love to travel so it seems like the perfect job. After getting a degree (another piece of paper that takes me years to receive) I plan to join the Coast Guard and practice photography and maybe be a pilot. All of these plans require you to go to twelve years of school, and countless more after that which nobody enjoys doing but I do admit, it's for the best.  After I have been in the Coast Guard for a while then my hopes are to get a job with National Geographic and travel to every country in the world.

Since I was little my only dream that I still have to this day is traveling the world still to this day I have that same dream and I plan to do it after I graduate college. If only there was a degree for traveling the world and getting payed for it I would be one happy camper.
