I've been thinking a lot about what career i want to pursue and i've come to the conclusion that i have no idea :S I used to want to be a pediatrician, but i'm not sure if i'm smart enough. Then i thought that i wanted to pursue my art, but i don't think art would be fun if it was a job. The only thing that i am really sure about is that i definatly want to be able to travel. I keep changing my mind about what i want to do with my life. Does anybody know exactly what career they want to pursue? Does anybody have any idea about what they want to be when they grow up? if so what? if not why?

When i was in a higschool.I got difficult also choosing what career i want to pursued.But then i follow my heart what i want.Then it will lead you in what you want to do.If you think pediatrician can make you happy you dont need to look if you are smart to to it or not.If you didnt try you will never find out if you can able to.But if you love to travel i suggest you study to be a pilot ofcourse if you are not color blinded coz that the 1st requirement that you need to be a pilot.Its expensive but if its your dream it is worthless.Goodluck w/ choosing in your career just follow your heart and the career that makes you happy and think also the future.Have a nice day!

I plan on majoring as being an Environmental Engineer when I go to college. It's a great field of study.

Well, here from where i am ... only some jobs are considered to be white collared enough for a student from a middle class family studying in the best public school of the region. So, I had less options and choices were easy.
I passed my highschool, and am doin my Computer Engineering now .. but i do know i wont settle for an engineering job .. I'll pursue my MBA (masters in business administration), most probably in marketing or Human Resources stream .. and then look for a job in that field. It interests me .. I think business administration should be fun. So i think i have pretty much figured it out all.
It'd be easier if you told at which level you are studying now .. Highschool ?? .. You see, it depends upon how much time you have to settle for an opinion.
Good Luck :)

I honestly don't know what course I'm going to take for college. I can't tell now because 'Only time will tell...'
