In the New York Times article, "High School Seniors Predict Their Future," several high school students make plans for possible future careers. Personally, I relate closest to the student who wants to be a school counselor. He wants to be a counselor because of the encouraging people in his life. Personally, I believe I have strong people skills that would suit me well for a job such as a school counselor. I also believe the kid that wants to be a marijuana baker is the most interesting. He seems serious about his intents to do this job, which is a rare job indeed. I believe the kid that is undecided is the most deluded because he is only interested in money at the moment.
Personally, in ten years, I can easily see myself as a high school teacher. I believe I have the complete skill set to fair well in the job. I enjoy helping people and relating to others. I hope that I can achieve my goals in life. I will want to use my personal skills as a people person in my future career. I hope that I can fully use these goals in a position such as a teacher or counselor. I am not concerned with the money portion of a job. I am solely interested in whether or not I see myself enjoying my career for all of my time spent on the job. I hope to find a more definite plan later in life but I also can relate myself to a few of the kids from this New York Times article.
