What do you do for work/school major?
Alrighty guys, I'm starting to venture out as a human being and I was just wondering other peoples stories.
Mines a bit long, hope you don't mind reading/I'm really bored.
Alright so first off I had been playing soccer my entire life. Ever since I can remember. I won all sorts of rewards and even paid to play on a good team. Around here its called club soccer, not sure what they call it in other areas. I made captain of my high school team as a sophomore and was already being scouted by nice d1 colleges. I was living the life as a soccer player. Then, my jr. year I got injured in an utmost important game against our schools biggest rivals. I ended up tearing my acl in my knee a long with my meniscus (also in your knee). What ever no biggie. I worked my butt off to get back in shape after surgery and felt like I was able to play again. My first game back, (six months later) I tore my acl in my other game. This surgury was much bigger then the first I had emergency surgery because of the way my leg was and again, I tried not to let it get to me even though I was gonna miss my senior year of soccer but whatever. I decided to play my senior game (bad idea) and I dislocated my knee. So at this point soccer is done, so is all the scholarships that came with it.
That brings me to modern times. I am out of highschool now, waiting to go to community college in January. Yeah d1 schools to comunity college... I know. I work full time now as a cook, and I'm deciding what I want to major in. I'm thinking about zoology with a minor in culinary (Ironic I know ha). I'm excited to see what my future holds.
How about you guys, whats your plans for the future/if you got a story that tops mine feel free to tell and make me feel better about my life !.

Lol I appreciate your dramtic-ness. We have all fallen prisoners of the internet. I love my life now, and I don't regret anything that has happened. There will always be that question of what my life could have been if I hadn't got so hurt, but instead of bringing me down I decided to turn it into positive energy to make myself better. I've never been a quitter which is why I was so good at soccer, so in turn I am not quitting at 'life' just because my life has changed. I know have time to put all my energy into my plan b, which is going to be work/school and be the best I can be. Corny I know but its honestly how I feel .
@post above. I would love to get a degree in the studying department, being an actual biologist and going in depth about mammals/animals in general. I am too active to be couped up in an office all day and this would be perfect. The field I want to go in takes the most schooling and is the most work, but its worth it.
Yeah, It wasn't a complaining story, trust me I have come to terms with myself not being able to play. I was just really bored and seeing what others are thinking of doing since I do love cooking and animals but I am still unsure of a major.
