When I was a kid I wanted to be....

As children so many have these huge dreams to be a princess or a millionaire but ever since I can remember I wanted to be a vet. I have always enjoyed being around animals and I just thought that was what I was going to do. I was set on going to Auburn University and going to vet school and openeing up my own practice somewhere. Well as we grow our interests change and different qualities develop. My want and desire to be a vet pretty much left me when I was around 15 years old. I still loved the whole medical aspect of it but I didnt have that want, to really work with animals anymore. Then nursing came to mind. I had never really thought about this profession before but I decided to start checking into it. I love being around people and helping people...theres no way I'm going to be cooped up in an office all day...just not going to happen. haha. So with nursing I get to work with medicine and people..perfect:) and also nursing is a pretty flexible job which is good especially if you want to have a family. Also, you can always find a job..there will never be too many nurses(which is a bonus). This summer and still even now I have a job at a doctors office here in town and although I just work in medical records I have been able to see some minor procedures the doctors have done and learn more about nursing. Being there has just fueled my desire to become one and do well in the profession. I dont know exactly what specific feild I will want to go into; probably something with children cause I adore kids. So yes, what I wanted to be when I grew up did change but not drastically, I still want to work with medicine, but instead of animals, with people and I am very excited to have the chance to do so.
