A Career : My Career As A Career

Around elementary and middle school, I didn’t know much of what career path I would choose since everyone I knew in my classes had their lives all planned out. I would panic when people asked “what are you going to be after your out of school?” and I didn’t know what to say so I just told them that I would be a correction officer like my dad. In the beginning I forced that thought into my head, but at the same time I knew it wasn’t something I always wanted to be. So my search of my future career was now back into my first priorities.

Growing up the main question a child is asked is, “What do you want to be when you grow up? “ , and most kids respond saying a doctor, lawyer, or a cop. In reality not everyone sticks to their first idea, and it’s slim that they actual start working in the chosen career. In my case, I have always wanted to work as a social worker or a therapist, but I realized it wasn’t in my budget. Therefore, I have decided; as well as, grew interest in being a dental assistant for a pediatric office.

Finding a career may be an imitating approach conversely, it may be the most important factor in the long run. The world offers thousands of various occupations that benefit everyone around them. The occupation I assume would benefit me also others around would be to become a Physical Therapist. Physical Therapists, also abbreviated as PTs, are sharply-intelligent health care providers who educate, rehabilitate, treat, and prevent their patients from pain in the human anatomy (American Physical Therapy Association). Aspiring physical therapists should take into consideration the duties, education, requirements, offering schools, salary, and alternate jobs to ensure their decision in this profession.

I have accomplished lots of things in my lifetime. I have accomplished getting a job and getting my license to go to that job. I have accomplished working two jobs one is being a machinist and a referee.

According to the 16 Personality test, my personality type is the defender. I possess the feeling trait and have excellent analytical skills. I have well-developed people skills and strong social relationships. Even though I’m the judging type, I am also receptive to change and new ideas. According to my Career Cruising results, I should become some type of counselor or therapist. Surprisingly, my suggested careers were pretty accurate to what I want to pursue. However, Career Cruising did not hint at any careers in criminal justice or forensic science as it has in previous years. For my Day-on-the-Job, I job shadowed Officer Brian Farlin and Detective Michael Neering to get a sense of working with crime since that has always interested me.

Growing up and planning your future can be a hard thing to do, and with so many options it can be confusing and stressing. Good thing I’ve narrowed down my options. Growing up is a challenge especially in these times. One has to carefully plan one's future. The good thing is we are still young and have the opportunity to start a career and change it if we lose the interest we held in it. I am one of the millions of teenagers that has no clue as to what's going to happen once we graduate from high school, although I do have backup plans ready just in case. I've chosen three careers I want to mainly focus on Medicine as a Nurse Practitioner, Military as a Mechanic, and Art Departments as an Art Therapists.

Growing up, I was just like the average child, one week I would say I wanted to be a doctor and the next I would say I wanted to be lawyer and then two days later, I would say I wanted to be an astronaut. All of this changed when I was in the sixth grade. I watched the movie "Harriet The Spy" for the first time and I was so intrigued. I remember saying,"This girl is pretending and she looks like she's having so much fun." From then on, I wanted to be an actress, but I didn't tell anyone. I thought people would make fun of me or say I wasn't good enough. This was a constant trepidation, so when people asked me what I wanted to be when I "grow up", I would say,"I don't know", and quickly change the subject. This went on for years, I would lie and say I didn't know what I wanted to be, when that was the farthest from the truth. I knew I wanted to be an actress. I stopped watching tv for entertainment and started watching so I could observe the actors. I would watch their movements and facial expressions, and I would even write down what they were saying and redo the scene how I thought it should be done.

In this research essay, I will be talking about the career that I would like to be in and what I need to do to get into that program: as well as talk about the university that I chose and explain why this would be the best decision to be in that field of research. The career that I chose and want to become is a zoologist and a wildlife biologist. The everyday work-life of a zoologist and a wildlife biologist mostly includes conducting studies, perform complex experiments, and going on trips to secluded areas such as rainforests, arctic tundras, deserts, and other places to collect data and research and make new theories and discoveries of animals. The education needed for this career is just to take a 4 year undergraduate program at a university,

“Do you know what you want to do when you graduate high school?” My dad asked, “No” I replied, “well it’s about time you start thinking about a career”. I was asked this when I was 13, I had no idea, how am I supposed to know exactly what I wanted to do for the rest of my life at just 13 years old? How does anyone know exactly what they want to be? This question stumped me for several years, I had absolutely no idea, and it wasn’t until 3 years later that finally got an idea. I discovered it one day while listening to my favorite band, I wanted to make music, I wanted to watch the crowd go ballistic while I sang on stage, I wanted to mean something. It occurred to me that I was already decent singer, I just need practice, and a band, and a

Growing up I was always told to be a doctor. I live in a strict household but over the years my parents made my life a bit more flexible since I started high school. I didn’t know what I wanted to do beside be a doctor. However, that wasn’t what I really want to become but the idea I did took in consideration. During my freshman year, I took a class called Math in Engineering. In the class, we were taught the eight steps of engineering and applied to all the assigned projects given. It was really interesting and collaborative. I also joined the club Mathematics Engineering Science Achievement (MESA). MESA is a competing club where students interested in the engineer field join and create projects to overcome an assigned task. Every year in MESA I’ve always place first place at prelims for my projects and have gone to regionals. However, my goal to place at regionals have not been achieve yet. Towards the end of the school year, I grew interest in the engineering field and decided I wanted to be an engineer but I have not decided what type specifically.

Five careers that I have found that might be a great choice for me. Some of These colleges are some of the top ranked worldwide, it takes determination and focus to be accepted into these colleges, you will need to work Even harder when you are accepted into these colleges.

April 29, 2015 is the day I decided to trade my labcoat dreams for a dream with a gown and a stage. In the first 17 years of my life, I never considered to pursue a career in music, let alone opera. I had this mindset that immigrants go to the U.S. to become doctors, lawyers, engineers, but never artists, dancers, or musicians. It was a privileged dream. I was granted the privilege of taking piano lessons since my parents saw its disciplinary benefits. As I was participating in my school choir and in church choir, my piano teacher, Miss Noto, suggested that I take voice lessons as well. I did not find myself a particularly talented singer until I was the only one in my county to be accepted into the All National Honor Choir. In my last music festival, my adjudicator asked me which conservatories I applied to and I told her zero because I was going to be an Otolaryngologist. Miss Noto, who was my accompanist at the time, later told me how surprised she was that I was not going to pursue music after high school. I never imagined that one’s hobbies could translate to a career. Then I thought, why not?

My career choices have bounced from veterinary school to becoming a teacher and possibly stopping at film and drama. Thanks to countless years of binge-watching anything from comedies, action and horror, I’ve become fascinated and infatuated with the idea of film-making and acting and what goes into the process. From scriptwriting to filming on set and final product of a full-length movie, I love it all. Though the process is long and tedious to be successful, it still has my attention and possibly has me pursuing a career in filming. I grew up in a family of hard-working and dedicated people. Strictly because somebody discourages doesn’t mean you can’t get back up and keep trying. I was also told that if I my nose to the grindstone I will be rewarded for my work, no matter how insignificant it may be.

The start of this project began in early October, and for the most part it was a relatively simple course of action to be prepared, coordinated, and reported for the majority of the school year. Its themes and priorities were simple in theory, however—volunteer, research post-graduation opportunities and ideas, and for the most part settle with a plan on how to address adulthood and future prospective careers and education. My choices led me to volunteer for the necessary twenty hours and my own curiosity has allowed for me to navigate the internet and other sources for ideas on careers, education, and even the possible jobs that I could acquire when moving from Pennsylvania after my graduation. There were many things to learn, but many things

It has been 10 years passed since last time I entered in college as a freshman, and now, at the end of 2017, I decide to go back to college for pursuing a new major and reaching a new objective of career path. All of these will start from Fullerton College.
