HOW TO BECOME AN ARCHITECT/ENGINEER/INTERIOR DESIGNER

by: Kim Isip
            People have been asking me what I really want to be when I grow up, and I just keep saying: “I’m not really sure, Bahala na”. Lately, I have been actually thinking about it, “What do I want to be?” A question that sounds so simple, but why is it so hard to answer for me?
            My friends tell me to choose something I will be happy with, but those that I choose are really impractical and may not earn me much money, so I think about my family. My Mother is a nurse and so are two of my sisters. My other sister is a lawyer. My Father is an engineer, my brother’s an architect, and my sister’s an interior designer (she also has other jobs like a bag designer) and we actually own our own company. My family is really important to me, so should I choose a path that they have chosen?
            I can honestly say that I am different in the Family because all of them are gifted with mental capabilities while I excel in the arts like music and ballet, but they say I can’t use these talents that for my future and I respect that.
            I love my family as much as they love me. I enjoy beautiful sceneries and beautiful places. I love decorating my room and thinking of my own designs, so I guess I have an idea of what path I want to take. I’m not very precise yet, but I’ve decided that I want to work with my dad’s company. It’s where we gain the most profit, and for sure I’ll easily get the job as long as I take a course for it. I know I want it and I can still play the piano or dance when I am free. I am not risking anything and I know I want to be something like this. My family will surely give me the love and support I need to fulfil my goal. Also, it will make my father proud of me which makes me really happy.
