I think I wanted to be a physicist at one point.
I like that.. Most kids want to be Batman.
I wanted to be a teacher for the longest time.
History and exercise science.
Then I looked at the job prospects and realised that there was a good chance I would end up doing temp work for years because teachers apparently refuse to retire until they literally drop dead from old age.
So, I started down the path to become a firefighter, even had the connections to actually end up with a job instead of on a massive waiting list due to the hero status that a shit tonne of people try to enter the field to attain. The schools I applied to had no space for someone with my grades, which weren't that bad, so I went to my backup program, which was cabinetmaking. I did that for a bit, then opened up an embroidery business, as many of you are aware.
I still wish I had gone though with the teaching thing.
I think I would have enjoyed it, and probably even been half decent at it.
I come from a long line of Professors and Teachers. I'm the only one who broke tradition. My mother actually was the one who put me off because as a kid we would spend long hours at school during the weekend.
But having a teacher's would be beneficial because it would give you the opportunity to travel. Therefore I HIGHLY encourage you to pursuit your childhood dream.
I never knew what I wanted to be, and I still don't.
Guess I haven't achieved much in my life.
Aren't you still in high school? When I left all I wanted to do was collect all 425 Pokemon. So you are forgiven
