Choose a career is extremely hard, especially when you don´t know what you want to do the rest of your life. The problem is that you don't do only one permanent thing for the rest of your life, is how you manipulate your tools (as studies, specializations, etc...) for do different things. Architecture is not only about design buildings, like Psychology is not always talk about the problems and feelings of a person, or Engineering is not only math. With the years and experience you can end doing something completely different compared with the things that you started doing. 

In my case, choose a career was something complicated. When I went out of school, and after a really long time of investigation with my school's counselor, I decided study Architecture (between many other careers). Why? That's a really good question. I think that my family context took part of that, because when I was a child, my dad worked as draftsman designer (drawing blueprints), and my mom, as a kindergarten teacher, always wanted that I do handmade and invigorating things/activities. When I grew up, I realized that I was good at it. But the truth is that I took the risk. 

Due to mentioned before, Architecture was my first option, however, I thought study other careers, like Journalism, Psychology, Kinesiology, Nutrition, Pedagogy, Marine Biology, and many others. 

At the moment, I really like this career. Most of the times is so hard and stressful, you can be wrong sometimes but is so exciting how you learn and understand how solve your mistakes ("you learn of your mistakes"). 

So, this is an adventure for me!
