As a little kid I always thought of different things I wanted to be when I grew up. It is scary to think that the time has come where I actually have to figure it out now. There is something that is exciting coming up with the career I want to have for the rest of my life, but it is also a nerve racking thing to think about. I have thought long and hard about what I want to do in the future and I really would like to become a nurse or a veterinarian. I would love them both because I love taking care of people and animals, but what I want to become more is a nurse.

If I was a veterinarian it would be a lot more difficult to find a job. Most of the time vets start their own practice and open up their own office.

A lot of the time most people already have vets for their animals, so it is a lot harder to start your own
