    A Zookeeper! Well, a dolphin trainer or a world class showjumper are the next.
    Here is my story on what I plan on doing.
    Most little kids go through the phaze of wanting to be a zookeeper. I did too. It was a time when I was young and I thought jobs were just something you did durring the day just to do, not for an income. When I got older I thought that the job was way too good to be true, that was not a real, reachable job, just a fantacy. There is where real keepers are separated from everyone else. It recently occured to me that people DO become keepers, it is a real job. Someone's got to do it, they are real people, WHY NOT ME!! So it is my goal to become a keeper of big cats.

    Well, becoming a vet has always been my dream job and thats what I am going to do.

    My mom and I have always talked about owning a grooming/doggy daycare/vet service thing all in one.

    These are great jobs, and I think you could all do them. My mom's a nurse...(LPN) and she's been one for 29 years. Her job is neat, but I dont think I could handle all the people, so like I said I wanna do the whole vet thing with my own clinic .

    Vets have to be very good with humans, what happens when a cat dies and you have to tell the mommy?
    You should read the book Real People Don't Own Monkeys: And Other Stories of Pets, Their People and the Vets Who See It All
    It is written by a vet about all of the things that happen while being a vet.

    Someone at my school said that she wanted to be a vet because animals are "cute and fun". I asked her "Do think an animal would be cute and fun if it was just brought in after it was hit by a car and hurt badly?" She replied, "Well....no.... but that doesn't happen often."
    All I could think of is that she needs to do alot more research before she even considers being a vet, if she thinks its all fun. My sister is currently going to college to become a vet, but she volunteered at our vet in town for at least two years before she decided. She plans on either volunteering at the shelter or helping out at a vet clinic pretty soon.

    I plan on volunteering in like a few years. The animal shelter wont even let you back to see the animals w/o someone unless you're 16...

    Well I really want to work at the Smithsonian Institute (in Washington) and become some sort of biologist there(still deciding).
    Then I want to become a vet and possibly work at Alameda East in Colorado(The one from Emergency vets on Animal Planet) Then I would open up a shelter for unwanted pets and animals, where any type of pet is welcome.
    I would also like to go to Africa and help save the endangered animals there. maybe opening up an orphanage/ rescue unit for a few of endangered animals.

    To me I'm kinda used to that bcuz everyone when they are sad they are always coming to me and I'm always cheer them up. But that book seems interesting.

    SO Many things.. I can't decied!

    I think it would be great to be a writer/artist. I love writing fantasy stories and everything that takes a lot of imagination. It helps to have a good imagination to draw I think too.

    Right now I'm into Photography. So I think being a photographer would be neat. And I could like star my own buisness and everything...

    I always thought it would be cool to just be an actress, But I'm not sure how good I would be at it. It looks like so much fun! I can fake cry but thats about it. And I laugh way to much, so that might not be good actress material, LOL. See what I mean??

    One other thing that would be great is to just live in a house with lots of land and own a few horses! And hey, why not get a some dogs too??

    I'm not sure what I want to do!!

    out of shape and a little worn around the edges, but they fit well."
