HELLO ALL.

Question!

Please comment and tell me what you could possibly see me doing for a career when I'm older.

Please. =\

What a way to pick my future. Basically, I have to go to university, I'm wondering if courses (like esthetics and stuff, only I would never go into that) would be good enough either. I'm not sure what I'd be particularly ( Read more... )

quizzes, school, links, whining

oh i feel bad now everyone said something helpful

i think i could see you being like..i don't know, why don't you be a psychologist. you're all into psychology. i mean, you get PSYCHOLOGY TODAY. and psychiatrists have to go to school for a million years, and can prescribe drugs, i think that's the only real difference..or a counselor for just counsely things rather than financial planning. this is all based on your liking for psychology and this sentence: and helping with general.. help.

some people need general help!

oh shut up, you could be a journalist on something. pip's advice column, i don't know. you could do something like that, remember what your teachers say about your VOICE? yeah you know they're right, STOP BEING MODEST.

well in all honesty i have no idea what you should do with your life. i also have no idea what to do with mine. i g2g

WHERE HAVE YOU GONE MY DEAR its 9:30

I may well end up getting a degree in psych. which would suck lol. because wtf can you do with that, so many flipping people go into that. aiee.

journalism is one idea, the career counselor man told me its mad competitive, and frankly the classes sound really boring. so i dont know. D:

pips advice column would suck. =\ im not really one for advicin`. ask me an advice question.

What do you enjoy doing? If you had all the money you would ever need what would you do with your time?

Answer these, and then I will tell you what to be when you grow up :)

I like reading and writing and chatting about this and that. I like organizing things. I like typing. I like boring little solitary monotonous tasks, and helping with general.. help ( ... )

You should be a critic. Books, movies, plays, whatever.

Or perhaps a copy editor.

I'd feel so bad being a critic. =X I mean even if I thought it was sucky, someone else might have their life changed by this book; who am I to tell them that it's crappy D: all I could really judge on without feeling bad is techinical bits like poor use of a word or something. My dad always says i should be a critic so I can travel around and see this and that, but I don't know.. plus I bet in journalism school (which is really hard to get into, which has killed my spirits a bit as well as teaching), they kill anything you'd have to say that's original, like "oh well if the theme isn't evident by such and such a point, its.. BAD".. or . something. mad dotdotting sorry

I don't know much about copy editors. >.>

children's book editor!

i think your best bet is to get an english degree. experiment in your first year and see which angle you want to go for your second and third. it's the best way to figure out what you wanna do.

and just why wouldn't you want to be an esthetician???
you're pretty much garunteed a job outside of school and it's only hard when you make it.

I was teaching myself how to do Gels/Aycrlics (SP)during my second month... we weren't supposed to learn them until month 5, and i was told my nails were better then the other girls, who were GRADUATING!!

so don't knock esthetics or anything???

You can always use that as a side career too ya know????

Oh I know it's a respectable career path and all, it's just not something I'm really interested in for myself. I know they teach you and all, but it's probably a bit easier to begin with if you have even the slightest skill in doing hair or nails or something. And I'm lacking that.

Besides, I'd be so scared of giving someone a haircut that they absolutely hated, or leaving bleach on too long and ruining their hair, something like that. D:
