What Career Do You Want To Have?, Or do you already have it? >:D Options

As the title above says.


Anyway, I really love art AND storytelling. I've been wanting to do something that requires both. I don't want to become a writer, unlike my brother (writing his first novel), more of a manga artist, because I get to tell my story through pictures. But being a game designer, or a director or animation was my second options. Shigeru Minamoto and Hiyao Miyazaki have really cool jobs. They both tell stories, create and design characters and settings, and make a product that enjoyable for lots of people. (And I bet they make loads of money doing it~ ;) )

So what do you want to be? Are there specific people you look up to?

I would like to be a veterinary technician, also known as veterinary nurse. I love animals, and I know from caring for my cats when they get sick that I would really enjoy this job. I've always wanted to work with animals; it's the only job I've ever really wanted. I considered writing and some other stuff, but . . . I really, really want to work with animals in some way, shape, or form. When I was younger, I wanted to be a veterinary doctor, but I changed to veterinary technician in recent years.

See, if I'm a veterinary doctor I'll be doing more brief examinations, diagnosing, and possibly surgeries and stuff. I don't want to do that kind of thing, it sounds boring. But if I become a veterinary technician I'll be doing treatments, taking notes, monitoring the animals, and all kinds of hands-on stuff and record keeping stuff. Now that sounds awesome. I'm a little worried I might have some trouble in a medical-type field, but that's what clinicals are for. I'm also vaguely considering a few other animal-related jobs - or trying to, anyway.

I also want to get a zoology degree, and maybe go into research or something. My plan right now is to finish a vet tech degree, get a job, and use the money from that job to pay for getting a zoology degree. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)

Edit:
Just realized how misinterperted research could be. I meant field research, like going out and studying animals in the wild.
