Scrachpad: 100AD - Perosnal Development Program

So, yet another 100AD, (PDP, Personal Development Program) lecture today, to be honest, I don't really see the point of it. I can appreciate the premise of it, decide were you want to go, and create a network of contacts, and develop a path toward the end goal. Now this is amazing idea, because a lot of people don't really know what they want to do at university. Also it allows you to grow as a person, wonderful. However, there is one problem, what if you know that you don't want to be doing what you are doing? Take me for example, I know that I do not want to be a journalist, I just feel that it is not me, too stressful, and not really suited to my talents. So the question as to be asked, what am I doing here? I would say, if pushed, that I am here to learn, academically, learn, not foster a career, as to be honest, I would not make it in there industry.
The skills that I am learning, will be useful, fact gathering, and other stuff like that, but most, the technical, knowledge will be most useful to me, as it is most mappable to the outside world.

The key question that keeps being asked is 'where are you' well I would say that I am on a road, I have no idea were it is going, nor where it will end, but I am learning as I walk.

Still I have to ask, "What's The point".
