What Do I Want To Do With My Life?

Hey girls!

What do you want to do with your life? 
Now I'm in 10th grade and I need to be deciding what I would like to spend the rest of my life doing career wise. 

When I was little, I went through a ton of ideas of what I would like to do. I considered everything to a midwife or doula, to a baker, and even to a Wal-Mart cashier (this was when I was super little though. I loved the idea of scanning stuff. ;P)!
I've narrowed it now quite a lot, and I know the basics of what I want to do...I would like to work with animals.

In the next couple of years, age 16-17, I am hoping to do some volunteer work. I know I would like to volunteer for our local zoo. 
I also know that I would like to work/live in Alaska. I am considering either working as a marine biologist or a zoologist. 

Lately I have been giving my career a lot of thought, because I need to be planning where I would like to go to college, what kind of degrees I would like to work for, that kind of stuff. 
I will probably go to college for 6-8 years working for a doctorate degree. 
I will probably go to a couple of local colleges for my first 2-4 years, and then I am wanting to go to a college in Alaska for the other 2-4 years, working for a doctorate degree.


What do you want to do with your life?
Any questions or comments?

  3. Very ambitious! I have always wanted to visit Alaska:) when I was in 10 grade I wanted to be a psychiatrist, then a photographer and eventually work in environmental science. I did go to college for the last one and I actually run a photography business now!

  4. This was actually really cool to read. It's nice to know that not everyone my age knows exactly what they want to do. I've recently been having a lot of anxiety about where my life is headed, but this post helped calm me down. Thanks!
