Help on futures and current career choices for me
Hey again, i'm really clueless on what i should do when i leave school so a little advise would be greatly needed. Currently, I'm in sixth form studying:
-performing arts -biology -english literature Some career ideas im interested in: - something to do with animals -a singer -running my own shop selling things like cosmetics not tested on animals, jewellery, my drawings But apparently my parents say im too unconfident to be a singer (although i could improve), too 'delicate' to work outside with animals for the third suggestion is the shop and sell my drawings online for the moment, and learn to make jewellery , and attend newcastle college after school to do art but i am still clued up on my other ideas, i love performing and animals... |

What do you love the most in this world, that you couldn't get enough of?

all of them things i mentioned, combined
its such a difficult choice! i guess i could do performing as a hobby, and record songs onto a cd; although the actual job would be stuck between animals and my own business :'( |

i personally think anything with animals would be the least stressful, though they're all great choices.

I would say go with something you enjoy and you can see yourself doing in the future. Also have you been to see a Connexions advisor at your college? You're in the UK right?
They will help you out. |

It's definitely not easy to decide what you want to do with your life. Running your own shop for cosmetics should be for later in life when you have heaps of money. First of all you should definitely take an art course and move up the ladder from there. Singing is definitely better as a hobby, but if you become professional you could even have that as a career and make even more money.
