Was it meant to be or should I reconsider?

Or maybe not, let me explain.

Little ol' 11-12 yo me was walking to my grandparents house until I saw an architect doing laser measures for a project.

Obviously I had to stop to watch, then I saw these green bubble things that are used to measure the level (see if something really is a flat surface compared to the ground/earth's center of gravity), they are called "level" in french, idk if it's the same in english.

Anyways that fascinated me and he proposed to give it to me, I couldn't refuse! So I took it and played with it for weeks by measuring the level of surfaces.

Now I'm 16, doing practical intsership in a few projects helping fully established architects, doing the exact thing I saw the guy do in the street.

I had this idea of becoming an architect or engineer almost my entire life.

Only recently have I had the thoughts of becoming a vet, or auxiliary specialised vet, just like my mother (might be the effects of social reproduction lmao) (just clarifying what I mean if it's not called that in English: the phenomenon that there is much more chances a kid does the same/similar job as his parent(s).)

So idk I'm kinda lost and leaning more towards vet.

Should I trust myself? I'm kinda wondering what ya'll think.

PS: I included my years old story just because why not. And my dad was an electrician, that's why I mentioned the phenomenon.
