>Hey Funmi, I think it is especially important that you mentioned the other side of the coin: your parent's career advice could in fact be a very good option. At the end of the day, whatever choices are made, the heart must be in it for it to work.

>Hey Funmi..I am going through the exact same thing right now: my mother's pushing me into being a manager, so I'm forced to study it at uni, and my heart's really not in it. I always wanted to make my happiness as a linguist – interpreter, translator, anyhting like that. But instead I'm stuck studying stuff I really don't have the motivation to study, and not only is it making it hard for me to even get out of bed every morning, but it has had a major effect on my grades, and that's something I've always taken pride in. I hope someday to have your courage and step up to the plate like you did. This entry has truly been an inspiration. Thank you.

>This is brilliant Funmi. Every teenager/young adult has gone through this at one stage. If you could make many people read this, you'd be helping a whole generation! DexterUkaegbu

>I am actually looking forward to this debate especially after hearing each party show their respective manifestos. I must say ive always been a labour supporter maybe even a blair-ite but recently they have been slipping although i dont trust david cameron as far as i throw him!
