I don't know! I'm about to graduate HS so that's a question a lot of people have been asking me. Part of me really wants to persue my intrests in genetics and breeding, part of me just doesn't want to deal with it because I can never turn anything in on time and just be a park ranger or something. I'll probably end up doing some freelance graphics and art no matter what.
Within the last few years I have wanted to be a zoologist, archaeologist, geneticist, a professional handler, or just live on the fringe, always moving around and exploring. I find myself more often wishing we had the exploration and discovery opportunities of antiquity. Charles Darwin got to sail around the world on the Beagle for five years developing his theory, writing, discovering new people and animals and climates. I want that. No matter he lived in a closet sized space while aboard.

I'll probably end up doing the peace corps after a year of two of community college, then perhaps army (I can't believe I'm actually considering it) or becoming a groom or working student for a top proffesional dressage or showjumping rider, or one of the two midwestern colleges that have varsity equestrian teams for a degree in equine studies, ecology, zoology, or biology. I can't seem to stay in one place for too long.

For quite a while I wanted to be a zoo keeper, then I learned you needed more than just a four year degree, then the hours are long, pay is cheap, and that leaves no time for my own animals or horses.
