I'm currently an Early Childhood Education Pending student. The pending means I haven't been fully accepted into the program (this doesn't happen until typically junior year). My intended career path is to teach somewhere between PreK and 3rd grade. It wasn't hard to pick a degree in Education, because I've always known I want to be a teacher. But some days I still think about changing to a different degree within education. Like, I'd also love to be a reading teacher for high school. I also really want to find a masters program for teaching a specific type of "disabled" children, but I"m having no luck.
I briefly thought about other careers because teaching does not pay much, compared to a lot of other professions. And, at least in my area, finding a teaching job isn't the easiest task. But I know it's what I REALLY want to do, they're the only classes that I can truly say I LOVE.
