I'm glad to see that thus far, NEWTS haven't been as difficult as our professors are fond of telling us. That's good; I wouldn't enjoy finishing my schooling with failure.

[Or maybe he's just too smart for his own good. In your face.]I've still yet to decide what I'll do after the school year ends and I've gone back to France -- that, a least,

Isn't there something you could do as a job that you'd really love to do anyway?

I really do like Cassie's advice, too, though. And I'm sure you would find something you love to do while traveling.

[dofaye]

I'd like to think that everyone can find a job that he enjoys, but that's somewhat doubtful. Even though some of my interests could be careers, in theory, I can't just wave my wand and find one.

[magichairbrush]

No, but I imagine it'd be worth putting the work in to find a job you really would enjoy... Don't you think so?

[dofaye]

[...oh, now he just sounds lazy.]

Of course! The question is whether such jobs exist, which to pursue, and so on.

[magichairbrush]

Oh, I see. Well, what kind of job would you be looking for?

[dofaye]

Something that involved taking care of flora, perhaps, or reading.

[magichairbrush]

Oh, you could be a book critic! Or... I'm sure there are lots of jobs involving herbology!

[dofaye]

Yes, that's true. I've been considering such jobs, but nothing in particular has stood out to me as of yet.

...a pity we haven't the option to move on to another level of education now, at least not for most fields of work.

[magichairbrush]

Oh, I see. Well, I do hope you find something.

Sometimes I feel the same way... Muggles do schooling until they're a bit older than seventeen, don't they?

[dofaye]

Yes, I believe they do. Funny, isn't it? They've much less difficult topics to learn about, since muggle things are easier to control.

[magichairbrush]

Yes, it really is strange. I'd like to find out why their school systems work that way...

[dofaye]

I imagine such a thing would be covered in Muggle Studies classes.

[magichairbrush]

Oh, of course! I'm taking that class next year.

[dofaye]

Well then, you'll have to tell me if you find out the answer.
