Something new had been brought up that has threw me off which studies to take but i need to be quick as i turn 16 soon which means the end of school soon.
Well i have ALWAYS loved animals and wanted to be with them so this makes me want to do a vertinary care course after school as i know a decent amount about animals and i can only be with them like i feel happy and it makes me feel better.
Though recently i fount out i put others before me and just want to help people and make them happy! :) So this has led me to do something like a therapist, As i have a natural calming aruoa apparently and also apparently i am fun to chat too and i can really help people, Which this makes me cry when i get told this as it is something i want to do and knowing i am doing it makes me so happy!
So yeah it is out of working with animals and being happy and i know a lot about them or helping people and being happy but possiblyless but feeling great that i am helping people which is also what i am kinda good at.
So if myposition which job would you take?

Well I've always been an animal lover and seeing as my father is a vet i've always been around them, so I began to train as a vet.

I think you should go with the one you see to be more long term, but you've also got to take whether its achievable into account. Would you be able to get the grades to become a vet? It takes a lot of work, a lot of sciences are needed at A-Level and things like that. Would you have the patience? I've always had a natural talent with animals probably like the one you have with people, maybe that should tell you something as well. If you're naturally better with people do you think thats the best route to take? Ultimately this is a decision you've got to make yourself so don't let these posts influence your decision too much alright?

I won't ha ha it is just ideas like your one kinda gave ideas :)
Yes i have a natural thing with People and it would be easier for me, But like you i too have this natural thing with animals, Like i find their best spot, Know how to approach them and can make any animal calm being with them no matter how energetic they normally are and i have put my WHOLE life and try my hardest in Science jsut to elt it all crumbble now ha ha.
But i see myself working with people and helping them more, It will deffinitly be easier as i have my own way i find most therpist dudes don't connect with their patients and their is no emotion there, So i want to change that! And i find Animals calm people down and can be used for therapy so i can always see if i can bring in an animal for me and the patients ha ha, OH MY GOD AARON THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU! Ha ha, You just gave me the BEST idea EVERS! THANKS! :D
That is why i have tons of Animals they make me happy when i am down and this sounds crazy i know but as i have no friends i just sit and talk with them ha ha, Aaron you clearly have brains ;) That was my idea, Bring in an animal or two to the Therapy thingy if the patient was ok with that and depending on what animal and they can be there to make me happy as i need to be with animals and also keep the patient calm, A big fluffy dog like a German Shepard would be a good one :)

Yup, animals are good in recovery for some people. Thats another reason i have so many animals because they brought me out of my shell a lot more. I'm glad i could help :P You could always merge the two.

Well, only thing I think of is looking after animals sometimes you do it for free with no pay like looking after abandonned animals.
But maybe a vet or something, but you'd need quite high GCSE levels.
