By doing this academic plan it really showed up what my time in college could be like in terms of classes and getting a degree. Since I have yet to declare a major my academic advisor is Jennifer Jenkins. So when I was filling out the rough draft of my academic plan I filled it out with the degree that I am interested in going into, but not 100% sure at this point, elementary education. Thankfully I still have some time before I have to make a final decision about the college degree I want to earn.

So I will be taking it a semester at a time and making sure that I am doing everything that I can to pass all of my classes and making sure that I will setting goals that I will be able to accomplish to my best ability. As well as the fact that I have a hard time finding things that interest me, ever since I was younger it was always animals, teaching, and traveling. If I can find something along those lines, than I think I will be happy with my college career and we were able to talk about that as well during our meeting
