Hey there, future Yellow Jackets!<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Tessa and I <\/span>love<\/span><\/i> to plan. I am at my happiest when things are organized and in order. Call me crazy, but my absolute favorite part of every semester is filling out my paper planner with important test dates and homework — color-coated and with stickers, I might add. Let\u2019s just say I thrive when I feel in control!<\/span><\/p>\n

I started my time at Cedarville as a worship and communication double major, unsure of what I was called to do vocationally, but convinced that I was on the right track. My plan was to finish both majors and go into full-time ministry. But by sophomore year, I felt totally lost. I knew I wanted to serve the church, but I didn\u2019t want to lead worship full-time.<\/span><\/p>\n

And that was where God changed my plans and called me to follow Him into the unknown. I dropped out of the worship program after nearly completing my degree and began to focus on building my writing skills. It was a <\/span>BIG<\/span><\/i> decision and <\/span>not<\/span><\/i> what I had planned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe you\u2019re facing a similar situation — interested in attending Cedarville, but not sure what you want to do with your life. Or maybe you have a lot of passions and talents, but you don\u2019t know how they can turn into a full-time job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some tips that helped me with the decision-making process. I think they might help you too!<\/span><\/p>\n
