Career

All my life I've had 3 career choices, they've never changed-Imprinted in my brain, flip flopping for years.

• Officer
• Lawyer
• Doctor

I told my mom and aunt when I was younger I wanted to be a cop (my uncles are very respectable men of the law) and they immediately told me no, simply because they said they could not fathom the idea of losing me to a crime gone wrong etc, etc.

I scratched that off my list. Next was lawyer, politics have always interested me and being an attorney was always a dream of mine, but my mother (once again) told me that I wasn't argumentative enough. I had to agree with that one, I avoid arguing at all cost.

Next was a doctor. I had chosen for years to be a pediatrician, after doing my residency etc, I wanted my own practice. I chose a pediatrician because I always wanted to work with kids. I love kids, kids love me. I wanted to be a teacher, but my mother (oh lookie there) told me teachers didn't make a lot of money and this I had to agree with. A pediatrician, actually, does not make a wealthy salary either. So I changed, to plastics. Why not make someone feel beautiful?

Well, now that I am transferring schools once again, my education has to be put on hold (not by choice). Last night, Sabrina asked if I was sure I wanted to continue with the pre-med track. I've been thinking about it, a lot. I do. I know it's going to take forever, but I have no idea what else I would want to do with my life.

I have a plan. I'm sticking with it, god willing.
