There are too many careers to choose from but the most career I have been dreaming about ever since gr.6 started was being a teacher. Just starting gr.6 I didn't know what I was gonna be when I grew up. My parents always said that I should be a doctor. And that it would push me for a better life because of the money. Basically in my culture and nationality, Filipino's are doctors. Back in the Phillipines alot of the jobs are doctors. My dad said that if you become a doctor when you grow up you can have a happy life. Becasue you get lots of money and get what you want. But I don't think thats my passion. Actually the one who inspired me to be a teacher was actually you Ms.Wilson. How you get to organize things, helping others learn new things, teaching them. I really love learning and helping others. Teaching is like a passion other than sports. Not only about the money but helping them. But I forgot to mention, I actually also wanted to be a leader. In BC, but I was born somewhere else not in BC so I couldn't. Because I thought that I could make BC a better place and help others share the love. Were all a family created by God. So when I realized I can't be a leader here in Canada I went to teaching. I may not be helping the world but teaching ones that can maybe teach others. There are alot of skills that I noticed by Ms.Wilson teaching that you need for this career. Like organization, responsiblitie, leadership, math, physical ed, lots of subjects!!! Thats why Im trying my hard to take my learning seriously. When I go to college I want to take a teaching course. I love how today we said that "were all a family". Others said "nah" but I think its true. Are learning grows together and I have to be honest, I LOVE BEING WITH YOU GUYS" Sometimes your a pain but thats alright cause I am too. See all of you tomorrow. Another day of learning!

I would like to become a police officer, I have always wanted to do something that involves law enforcement. Also being a police officer means you help out a lot which I would love to do :) I feel like this job is very important to everyone around the world.

I am most likely going to be a heart doctor. The reason I want to do this career is because I love to help people and medical things interest me in general. I also would like to do this job because of my moms past experience. To do this job I would need to have experience and know my facts the other thing is I would need to have a nice kind bubbly personality because you have to be nice to patients which I sort of already have that kind of personality anyways.

I don't really have my mind set on what I want to be but here are a few things. I would like to be a pharmacist and heal/help others. A gymnastics or life guard because I get to be active and get paid at the same time! These have been my two favourite hobbies for along time and I have been doing it ever since I was little I enjoy doing them! I would like to teach and help others to achevie their goals.

I think the career I would choose would to go back to my homeland and to try to be a politician. I've always been interested in politics and I want to try to clean up my country. I've always wanted to serve others and protect them. I'll need to be confident at public speaking, and need to know my people. I'll also need to be able to lead a tough life, since it;ll be a good one.

I wanna be a Wildlife Biologist/Zoologist because ever since I was a very little kid I've grown up in nature on a huge field of land so I obviously fell in love with everything to do with it! After that one night when I was a bit older I saw this documentary about biologists (I used to love those documentarys, still do :P) I then saw that career path and I was like " Woah!" And since that I've wanted to be a wildlife biologist, even though it does take a lot of work and schooling to get to it I will improve as much as I possibly can to achieve my goal to that.

I think I would want to be a doctor. All starting from the age of 5 I had wanted to be a doctor. I started to take an interest by playing doctor games or surgery games. (Not when I was to young though). And to be honest I still do. I have always loved helping people and I always have taken an interest with risks or puzzles or challenges to take on alone and or even with a team. I feel good about this career because of how I get to experience different diseases and cures. Different solutions and different thinking. I would probably need math, health and career, and going to college or university with getting the special training. It is a very common job but it's something I love doing. I'm a little bit obsessive to because I have a diagram of the human skeleton on the back of my bedroom door so I see it quite a lot. I even have a first aid kit and bandaid dispensers in my desk. Obsessive much? Quote of the day: "Let failure be your teacher not your judge."~Connor Franta (I'm pretty sure).

OOOHHHH. I would even like to be an executive chef or a proffesional baker with my own resteraunt or bakery. I love baking sweet treats and delicious dinners! I've made asian pasta alone by my self for dinner once and it turned out pretty great! The skills I would need would to be going to culinary arts school and taking baking or cake decorating classes on the side.

My career of choice would be a marine biologist. But to me its not an intrest its something I have been dedicated to for a while. The reason I want this as my career is because my uncle takes me out on his boat sometimes and we witness the most amazing things. I couldn't for a second think of something better to do with my life then to be able to study such beautiful sea creatures.

I think I would like to do something that involves computers, like InfoTech or developing software and/or video games, because I've always been interested in that sort of thing. I would need to improve my math skills though.

I would like to choose Hollywood filmmaker/editor because I already have experienced using the type of software they use and I'm working on getting better with my camera so if I keep working hard on this one day it might be possible.
