Your future

When you are on your last couple years in high school there comes a time when you start to get nervous about your future. You worry about what college you will go to, and before choosing that college you have to find what interests you so that you have an idea of what profession you want to become.

               I have had a hard time deciding what I want to become. When I was you  it was a ballerina, once I got older it turned into chief or masseuse then it turned to physical therapist or dentist and now I am leaning toward a health specialist, or in other words a dietitian. This shows how you may never know for sure what you want to become when you are still a teenager, but what helps me not freak out about not knowing what I am going to do with my life is knowing that just living life will help me make the decision. As I experience new things in college I will realize what I love, and also what I don’t. I think at this point in my life I should just be grateful knowing that I want to take science and preferably heath related courses. As long as you can get a big outline of what you will do for college the rest will slowly fall into place as your last year of high school ends. Of course it is a lot of work to figure out college plans but I guess what I am trying to say is don’t stress out, it may take more than a few weeks to figure out exactly where you are going and doing with your adult life.

               To get the big plan make a list of what interests you and your hobbies. With this list find someone you really trust like your parents or even a best friends and think of professions that suit most of these things on the list. I think the most important thing is to find a job that will make you happy every day that you do it. You don’t want to waste your years away doing something that you hate doing just because you need the money! Also something to keep in mind, are you a people person or not? If you are then you would be better at certain professions when a non-people person may be better at other professions. If you are good with people then a job were you have to communicate with people daily would be better for you and maybe even more intriguing to you because you will love what you do. (440)
