the path to a carreer
A man named Thomas Carlyle once said, ABlessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness.@ I couldn=t agree more. In Kindergarten I thought I knew what I wanted to be for the rest of my life. How wrong I was. Over the years my career interests have changed dramatically, everything from a marine biologist to an interior decorator. Most of my friends have their careers chosen and are already taking courses to achieve that career, me... mine changes all the time. I use to think that you would find your career path once you had been in college for a while, long enough to try different things out. But now it seems that you need to have a chosen career prior to college. I sometimes feel life is running over me and I can=t seem to catch up.The first day of Kindergarten I decided that I wanted to become a teacher, I wanted to help children, I wanted to make a difference. That career interest stuck with me for several years. The in third grade I had a teacher named Miss Masternak, she
Mehaffey, was the most amazing artist and teacher. With the thought of elementary ed. He was so understanding and patient with all of his students. or physical therapist are the careers I am most interested in. She had such a way with children; instead of making schoolwork seem boring and endless, she had a way of making it fun and exciting. While in his class I discovered interior decorators as a career option because it involved two things I loved to do, help people and mix in some art. It seemed like a wonderful way to interact with people, to be able to help someone help himself or herself. Finally, during my senior year in high school I came across physical therapy in a magazine I read about careers. The summer before I spent some time observing a marine biologist and wasn't quite sure if I could handle biology, but thought that that would be an interesting field to go into. During that same year I had a biology class, and found that I was rather good at it. inspired me in a way no one had before. That summer I added one more interest to my list: Pediatric Nurse Assistant. That sparked my interest immediately, and I started reading up on the subject. It was the summer after sophomore year that I had an opportunity to work and study at Sparrow Hospital in the pediatric ward. I now had teacher, interior decorator, and marine biologist on my career interest list, and no idea which one I should choose.
