definitely not. i know too many teens who have done that, and because of the money, not becasue they would enjoy the job. i know a lot of people who say they want to be a lawyer or a doctor or such, two of which stand out to me. one is a girl who wants to be a lawyer.... but she would be awful at it. she tends to blurt out whatever is on her mind, and i don't think that would go over too well. another girl, though, wants to be a doctor, and it's because she enjoys learning about the human body and she wants to be able to help people and she was really good at math and science... she wants to be a brain surgeon, actually, if i remember correctly.

i, on the other hand, am not sure what i want to do with my life, and i figure, why do i have to know? i'm only going to be a junior in high school this year, it's not that important yet. i AM interested in drama, have been for as long as i remember, and international relations, ever since a model UN conference this year, but i don't know that either of those are things i'll end up in. i just want to go to a college where there are strong theater and international affair programs, but where i can dabble around in different stuff for my first year or so, just to get a taste for what really does interest me. (well, and a rural college, but that's another story)
