To Toshie:
Sometimes it depends on where you are from in the world. Going to a higher education school (either college or
polytechnical) will increase the likely hood of you being hired, no matter your job or your location.
As to what should you persue as your major... I think you should ask yourself... "What makes me happy, what do I
wake up and want to do everyday, what would I want to do, nomatter how much I would get paid?" I think that the
questions to those answers would be the REAL job for you. However, some people decide to choose a job skill that they
know they could do for awhile before they go to their dream job. Then, after a few years of saving money, you might be
able to go to school on the side and try to do your dream job later.
Well, I went into college (4-5 year university) right after high school. I had scholarships, so I wanted to use them to
not waste the free money for my college. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do then... I knew I wanted to work with animals,
but I knew I couldn't stand blood... so being a vet was out of the question for now. So, I took some general classes.
The 1st year, I looked into the jobs I was interested in and by my 2nd year, I knew I wanted to do specifically within
the animal field.
I got my degree and I still do not have a job. Sometimes, even with a degree, you might not be able to get a job. If I
want to get a job in my field, I would have to move. Right now, I am needed at home, so I will wait a while before
leaving my parents. My dad cannot work and was injured in an accident, so I stay at home to take care of him and the
housework... my mom works.
I think that you should really think this out. Find out what you want to do, ask your parent's opinion. Tell them what
you'd like to do and then tell them what you are willing to do to get that job (even if it means to go learn another
skill to make money to prepare you for your dream job.)
To snowcutie:
I think that its dangerous to try to just marry a rich guy. What if the rich guys where you live, want strong,
independant, hard working career girls? How will you marry a rich person if they want what you decided to not do? I
think you should try to think about what you might want to do with your life after school. Even if you just want to go
to a general job before you get a real (better) job.
My parents were pretty flexible. They wanted me to do something that I liked to do, nomatter what it was. I wish
everyone's parents were that supportive of their children.
I want everyone to know, that I don't claim to know what exactly to tell you, or what you should do. This is only my
personal opinion. I do wish you both, the best of luck in your future endeavors and I hope that one day you will all be
able to do something that you love. :D
