Dear readers,
As you probably assumed from the title I would like to change my Study course.
At least, I am considering to.
So here's the deal:
I am a seventeen year old guy from the netherlands.
I am currently doing a course for electro technician, For the dutchies between us, MBO 4.
and four years back I was handed a choice, Technical, or care. (this will come into use later)
The thing with this course is not that it's a boring study,
I am almost (or already) half-way through my course and i am just starting to lose interest.
It is just not challenging enough.
I have a true admiration for the builders and maintainers of our country.
Admit it, Life would be pretty different without those almost invisible ordinary people maintaining our power supplies and making our cell phones and computers.
Me for myself, I like to make things complicated, Come with complex solutions for something and make logic in the weirdest thing ever invented.
Besides that I am a social guy, at least, I try not to be a complete douche.
So 4 years back I was handed the choice: Care or technical.
I chose the technical side Because back in the day i had a different image of the people building everything around us.
Now 4 years later, I am doing my internship in a company that makes Steering devices for all sorts of other companies, Big white Cabinets, lots of cables, and first off it looked all shiny and new.
Untill three weeks later, Where I can write all my social interactions on a single sheet of paper
I like to talk, and i do like making those devices into the cabinets, which is one of the worst possible combinations, i guess.
I have come to the point where I am second guessing my choice and considering to swap to my other option, care.
I am considering this because I like to talk, medicine are pretty interesting, and operating seems to have a good thrill to it too.
Now i know it won't be all flowers and butterflies, and there are parts (like the appendix) that no-one ever uses, but i still feel more attracted to care than my current study course.
this idea of changing my course basically came up three weeks ago and i feel like it is a bit fast to decide.
and to make this current course useful I think that it would be a good plan to finish this year and get my MBO-2-Electro technician certificate.
So i have a question.
• What would be the wise choice here?
I know I basically already gave myself the answer, but i would like the other opinion here.
For now: Thanks for taking the time for reading my novel-sized post, and i look forward to your replies.
