Like a typical child, I had wild aspirations of what I wanted to be when I grew up, but at no point had I thought about doing software engineering. Partly because I had never heard of software engineering let alone software, and partly because like many children, I wanted to be an astronaut. Like most of those other children, I have realized that I will not become an astronaut. What I mean by this is not that I have settled for a more attainable goal, but that what I want to do is not set.
What I can say is that, I enjoy coding, and I have since I was in high school. This is what ultimately lead me to become a computer science major and end up in a software engineering class. I am simply pursuing not only something that I enjoy, but something I that will give me employable skills. This leaves me in a weird spot because I don’t even know for sure that I want to have a future in software engineering.
However, regardless of what I end up doing I would like to learn to use more languages so that I can use the best language for the situation and am capable of handling software regardless of the language it is written in. In the closer future, I would love to be able to get an internship at a company where I can develop my skills and practice what I already know.
