When you finsihed highschool did you know what you wanted to be? and did that dream come true? or did you end up changing and doing something else? when i was in highschool i knew that i wanted to be an annimator but in my second year of college i realized that it just was not for me, i did want to live off contract after contract it was not a secure job. i want something steady i realized. Today i am now working on being a early childhood educator. happy mylotting!

Hi, swadey, I believe most people's dream will change with their growing up. When I were a child, I had a lot of dreams, I would like to be a teacher, a scientist, a doctor, a lwayer and so on. Now I am still in colledge, my major is engineering, I think most possiblely that I will become to be a researcher or an engineer.
Good luck.

When I finished high school, I knew that I had to go to college to be what I still want to be - a lawyer. I'm not a lawyer yet, as that takes roughly around 8 years of post secondary schooling, but I'm working on it- I'm in my sophmore year in college. So, I'm working on it!

Hi Swadney,
When I finished highschool I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do, I met my ex-husband at 18 and married him at 19...I tried to go to college while I was still very young, but ended up having my first son at 21...I ended up getting divorced at 26 but by then I had 3 kids, I kinda had a rocky time trying to raise them, work, and try to date "quality" guys...but by the time I was 29 I met my fiance who I've been with ever since and he's been great!
I worked the same career for 5 years, and I am now looking forward to changing it.
I am now going back to school for Graphic Art/Design and I'm really glad I took the initiative to get started because I love it! And I am hoping I can obtain the educational knowledge to make it my future career...I guess in the end all that really matters is that you are happy, whether you have a career direction,or decide to change careers occasionally.
