Hello, my dear friends,
You are fantastic, you are incredible, you are the best!
Thank you for your former writings and comments (more that 100!!!), sharing your experiences, habits (hobbies) and believes! I hope the topic we are going to introduce now will be as keenly discussed as the previous one!

The year 2009 is soon over. This is the time people think about what has been done so far, what should have been done and, certainly- what is going to be done in the future!

Do you think your interests change during your lifetime?
Do you think your schools will prepare you for work or academic life?
What are your future plans and prospects after finishing your schools? Have you thought about the way/ways your future career might progress??? 
Where are you going to study in order to acquire the skills for your future job? What is (was) the first step when you choose your future occupation?
What is the secret of happiness from your point of view?
Can you imagine yourself (how your life will have changed) in 5 years?
 
Enough queries? Really?
OK, let it be!
See you here soon??? The deadline- year 2009!

Sincerely, Gundega, your administrator.

P. S. In case you would like to establish contact with the particular person from the partner country (e.g., exchange e-mails privately), ask for the particular e-mail address to your teacher of English! It is much safer than publish any personal information on the net, isn't it?
See you!

    Future actually is a very interesting topic. We never know what will happen but we can imagine. I like to imagine how everything will be but almost always it happens in totally different way. Maybe I just have a bad intuition?
    Of course I think that my interests changes during my lifetime, because interests depends on my age. When we are children we like dolls and toy cars and so on, but when we get older, our interests changes, they get more serious because our life gets more serious too. We are not the same children who care only about how to get a new toy or to see our favourite cartoon.
    I think that schools do prepare for the work or academic life but not completely, because it’s not the same to be a pupil or to be a grown up. When you’re a grown up you have more responsibility on your own and in school you can’t learn something like having the real responsibility what you’ll need in your future.
    I have two ideas what I could do. I want to go to university but I don’t know where and what university. In the best way I’ll probably will go to study to England. But it’s only in that case if I have very good marks. But maybe I’ll study here in Latvia something with linguistics, because I like to learn languages very much and it’s very useful.
    My opinion about happiness is simple – think happy thoughts and believe in yourself. It’s the most important thing because if you don’t believe that you can do it, you won’t do it! You must try to do everything as good as you can, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little or a very big and important thing because the little things can make a big difference. And smile because smile is the second best thing what you can do with your lips! :)
    I can’t imagine how I’ll have changed in 5 years because it’s after a quite long time and everything changes so fast and unforeseeable so I won’t waste my time to think about what will happen because I must think about something what I have to do in the next weeks not next years. Everything will happen like it should be and I can only hope and try to make it as good as possible. :)

    Well, now I need to tell about my future. And its make me think about things like life, me, today and tomorrow. It’s strange, because last few years I knew what I want be in future; my targets and things who I want in my life in future. I know, I want be a journalist. And I’m done everything I could to make my dream come true; at least come closer to realising moment. I had participated in many programs and activities who could help me know more about my chosen future profession. And I always have known how I want to live my life in future.
    But now I must think about my present. Because I have so many time spent in dreams about my future and life after some time that I have forgot about my life today. I forgot about people around me and things what I need do now and not later, after years. I forgot about joy what life gives to me, cause I’m to much serious about future. It’s good to think about your future, but you can’t forget about your present.
    After few weeks there will be Christmas, and it is time, when all people need look around and think about others – peoples next to them, about them, who they love. So do I. And one of my latest dreams and decisions are more think about people who I care and my life now. Because if I will live for today with enjoy and happiness about life, I could reach all my targets in future easily…
    And I wish yours dreams come true soon…

    Hello!
    My future is very important for me, because in Latvia now is very difficult future conditions. In my opinion, people need more think about education, because in world without documents we are nothing.
    Right now I don’t know what I want to be. But I think, in length of time, I could know it, because our opinions about life change. People interests change during lifetime and we can be wrong, but we must go to our goal and that, everything be good.
    One thing what I want to do in future is that, I want study in Denmark, because there are smaller pay of studies, I want make easy my parents life and there studies my cousins, too. And for that reason, I must learn languages. I can say, that is the most important thing for me now, but I can’t say that my future plans about where going to study don’t change.
    I can’t imagine how my life will changed in next five years, because I can’t imagine what I do in next day, week or month. I enjoy live life right now and make my fature better that one how I can, to trust my abilities and trust only myself, because this is my life!

  • My future plans...

    (Anonymous)
    My future plans is not complicated because I know what I want to do next. Of course the things changes and we can’t affect them. In childhood I thought that I can be a good policeman or teacher or famous singer, but I think and I know that my interests changes during my lifetime and age.
    I think that schools don’t prepare for the work or academic life because it isn’t the school’s aim. School helps me to do some works myself, teach some rules, especially, ethic, some advices, but that’s all. School doesn’t prepare for my life. I have to learn myself for my work, academic life and also life. School doesn’t teach real life situations which we must try in real life. Sometimes we haven’t any responsibility about some rules or duties.
    My future occupation is doctor. I don’t know what kind of doctor’s occupation but I have a time to make a choice. I haven’t idea about my prospects, but I know that it will be very hard and difficult. I will learn in Latvia, but I don’t know where I am going to work? If I have chance work abroad, I’ll do that. I want to go to university have to pass exams in high levels if I want to study for free. Next year is my last year in secondary school; I’ll go to extra lessons in chemistry and biology.
    The main reason when I chose the future’s occupation was that my grandfather was a doctor too. He told me how it is, how hard it is and I inspirited. About happiness…. From theory I must think positive and think good thoughts, and always keep smiling. But in reality I think realistic and do what I want to do: smile when I want smile, think good when I want to do that.
    After 5 years, I will sit in universities classroom’s table with long, long beard and think about next graduates year or for example, about lungs or kidneys… :D
    Life is game and everything depends from me and fortune. But only question is one: what kind of playing-cards destiny appropriate from me…
    I hope and believe that I have chosen the right way in my life...

    Is it so ? thoughts about futures changes definitely ,we can't compare our ideas and dreams about future between childhood and the moment we are living now. Things like these are much more than just difficult to think about. We can't plan what life will give to us.

    At school me and my friends have something like joke ,or saying that we are going to be doctors. There's a little truth in it. My mother has been chosen this profession and I know what it means,I would be glad to take this challenge to ,because in my opinion it is a real challenge. I think school isn't preparing us for real life,because it just gives us example how it should be. Everything else we have to learn by ourselves. Without school I also do extreme sports ,and I don't want to give this dream away,however it isn't the way how to provide my future,but anyway it's the thing I can't live without. If you want truth ,I don't know nothing about my future,I guess I live for moment more or less.

    I think the secret of happiness is living your life in harmony ,have reliable people around you and no mater what always keep yourself determinate.There is always one way how to prove faith to your strength and it is - keep being persevering.

    When I was a child, it was hard to say what I would like to do in my future. I didn’t have a dream about my occupation for teacher or shop-assistant. But now I know really clear and it helps me to make my dreams come true.

    Sometimes I think about a position what I hold now and what I would like to hold. I believe that all of us have a point why we are here. Several of us are here to make the world better. I would like to be one of them. Probably it sound silly or naive but so it is. I would like to dedicate my life for people. I want to be a doctor.
    For the near future it’s all clear for me. I will learn in Jāņa Stradiņa University. I need to learn there for six years. Against the background I would like to be a pediatrist I need to learn more four years. And then – who knows! :] Maybe I will continue to work here in my native. But I know – wherever I will go I will learn, work and help people with all my heart.

    I believe that all we need to reach something is a reason to wage a war against our unsteadiness, inertness and doubts. Let’s live for today to reach the future. :]

    Do I think my interests change during my lifetime? But of course. If we`re talking about professions, when I was a child I wanted to be a shop-assistant just like all girls want.
    In the childhood all things look like interesting and exciting until we acqoainted the world.
    I`ve thought about what I want to be in future. I hope I`ll finish secondary school successfully, then I`ll get in some university - hopefully in a paid group and become interior designer.
    That`s what excites me and I like to do it. I`ve finished art school and it`s such a plus for me.
    Of course, I hope after 5 years I`ll be studying already the third year in an university hopefully somewhere abroad.
    The most important if you want to reach your aim - you`ve to spend a lot of time, patience and hard work for it.

    Future? What do I think about the future you ask? Well, I think that we don’t now exactly whats gonna happen in future. You never now, for example, maybe on day you will wake up and say – I want to be a journalist, musican or a writer, but then you will need to know the first step for your bright future – to study hard and only than you will achieve something.
    Ofcurse nothing comes easy, that’s why you need to prove, that your the right man/woman for the job. And you should definitely now that life is a difficult journey and you need to be the best best worker you can be. Do what you love. When you love your work, you become the best worker in the world.
    I suppose it is possible to reach the highest point in your future, but you need to remember two things - do whatever it takes to make your dreams come true and try to always be in the right place at the right time.
    When I picture the future, I picture it in a different way not that what we see now. I think people will care more about other people, but who knows, because the future will be whatever we make it.
    Maybe this is only the start and the real future will be waiting for us. Well, I know we all dream of a better world, but sometimes we have to face reality. But I don’t understand one thing – we have all the best technologies in the world and in the future there will be more, but if people made world like this, that only people in past could only dream about it, imagine what can we do to stop people for destroying the world. Just think about it for a second – if one person can make a difference, what can we all do to make a world better for us and our future generation.
    What do you think about the future? What do you think will happen? Will life be better or worse considering what is going on in the world these days - war, Global warming, violence, genetically modified food, world hunger, etc..?

    Do you already have your own plan for a better future?

    I don't really have too many future plans, but I do have goals and things I want to achive. Like for example, one day I want a family of mye one, I want a big white house that I've helped decorate. I wish for a bunch of dogs, a couple of guina pigs and perhaps one day I'll even get married. I want to have well paid job, a job I like and a job I can be proud of. I want to be able to help others. How? I don't know yet, but probably is my schedual when I'm not at work a lot of voluntary stuff. Like animal protection, visiting old people. I don't know if that sounds funny for you, but I think it sounds like a really nice future :) Right now, I have 2 more years left at school, there is no rush for me to decide what I want to do for the rest of my life. I don't have to decide after i'm finish with school either, I can work for a couple of years to save up. I can try out a couple of differents things before I settle with one proffesion. As long as I'm happy (and rich) I don't really care how my future looks

    I always said it; I was going to be a ballerina!! And I still hold on to that;it is my biggest dream, although I have broaden my perspective a little..

    I am a student at Program for Specilization in Generel Studies and Sports, and I am beacause I want to learn about training, and how the body works. It is facinating, and this is something I could honestly picture myself working with in the future. I love helping people get faster, stronger.. Pushing people. Maybe a personal trainer is something for me?
    My biggest passion is dancing; contemporary, disco, ballet, hip hop, I love it all. But the one type of dance I love the most is freestyle disco. I have been dancing since I was four, mostly freestyle and ballet. I know that working as a dancer dosen't pay all that well, so I know I have to have a plan B. But if I work extra hard, maybe I can be a professional dancer!

    Hello, i'm going to Lena Videregående and this is how my future looks like.

    In my future i'm going to be a professional guitar-player in a world famous rock band. I also want to be the owner of my very own strip club, where i have the best male strippers in the world. I want to make a lot of money, and be very rich. The only way to get that is by doing criminality. I'm gonna move to Hollywood and meet a beautiful and famous movie star. Merry her in the world's most expensive wedding and live happily with her for the rest of my life. I want to travel all over the world, on a tour with my band, Kings of Trude. In my band plays three other people then me. They are Danial, Ludvig and Atle Johnny. Our goal is to play for over 300.000 people at one singel concert. That will be the kick of a lifetime. The rock'n roll life, can often be hard, but i'm gonna stay away from drugs and alcohol no matter what! I think...

    Yes, I think my interests change during my lifetime. My interests have allready changed. Three years ago I had no intestets in the musikgenre called metal, or hard rock. It's obvious that some interests will change in a persons life. This is because we meet new people who can or will affect you in one way or another.
    Well, I do not have much to say about that. But in Norway we have different programs. After you are finished with some of them you are educated and ready for the real life in an occupation.
    Yes! I have temporary plans for further schools and occupation. I want to become a physiotherapist and help young athlets with their injures.
    Yes I am. I took the first step when i started at Lena, in their sportprogram. Beeing in this program is helping me to dicide if physiotherapist is the right occupation for me. And untill this day I feel comfortable thinking about beeing a physiotherapist.
    The secret of happiness.. hmm.. Hard to know! It must be beliving in your self, trying to make YOUR dreams come true. Not fuzzing around in others footsteps. hm.. Yes, for me happiness is beeing independent and the currage to dare to live your life. :)
    In five years I will be going to school to become a physipotherapist in Norway - Trondheim.

    My future visions
    I don`t have any visions for my future actually, it is not important to me for the moment. What is important for me now is friends, soccer and just have fun. I will take things as they come. But even though I don`t have any plans, I try to do my best at school so all the ways are open for me later in life. Of course, I have a dream of getting a well-paid job, who I love working in, but I do not have any special one in my mind. It would be fun to be good in soccer and live of that, but I don`t think that there is something I should really go in for. At the moment soccer is just something I do for fun. A journalist is something I may have fun of doing, especially in sport. I love all sports, not just soccer. In Norway it is great to get a good education, and I am sure I will find something nice to work with later in my life.
    I would like to travel a lot around the world in my life; there is so much to see. If it is possible to combine this with the job I have I would be very glad. The place in the world that I would like to visit some day is Australia. The nature I have seen there is beautiful, and I have always wanted to surf, this is great to do in Australia. In my dream job, you have fun, make good money and travel a lot around the world. That is my future visions.

    I have no plans for my future. But I want to train a lot, and work at school. But when the school get over, then I will study Economics ore Arcitect. I think I will study in America, but I ain't sure, maybe I do it England, Autralia or Norway, nobody knows. But I am sure that I want to travel. I want to travel from country to country, and see different places and other cultures. I want warm wether and sun everyday. I want to swim and walk in shorts every day. And I can't do it here in Norway. So from my place, just now, will I travel away from Norway and maybe to the US to a place it is warm. But when I get older, like 30 or 40, will I get back to Norway. I am not worry for a job in the future, but a want to work with something I get a lot of money for.

    Well, my future. Actual have I many plane to my future. My biggest dream is to be a police woman. But before I can be that, have I a long way to go. By now I go on a programme for Specialization in General studies in sport. And it in this time I lay my basis for my future. I go also Top-level-athletics,and that is something I feel happy to go. And I like my were well in my class. After this three year I want to came in to military service, I now that it can be hard, but I want to try irrespective of I am girl, and don't need to get there. I want to go in her right after the advanced, little because everybody most be 20 years old to start to study to be police. And because I come to be stronger and I get a insight to what the police do. If this plans get in ground, I maybe want to work with child and youth. Child who need more help in there's weekday. But police have been my dream in many, many years now. And I hope I well be it to. If I don't, well I also disappoint my self.

  • My future dream

    (Anonymous)
    My biggest future dream is to become one of Oslo's best-paid prostitutes. I may sound a little crazy, but if I work as a whore, I need not further education. I could well imagine since I hate school and everything to do with it to do. I have, after all, no friends, making that I often go alone and feel sorry for myself. No, just kidding. In reality I dream of working as a trainer at a skilinje. When can I use my experiences and my knowledge to teach others to be better skiers, both physically and mentally. It may sound strange, but it's actually very important for a skier to think properly. Do not it is very difficult to achieve good results. The reason I want åutdanne me that this is, I think it seems very fun and exciting to train and work with the youth since they, or should I say we are very eager and willing to learn. It seems also very funny because one can find many different activities outside ski.

    That I do on my spare time is to play football...
    Now I play for a club called FK Toten and next year I have plans to move to a better club called Raufoss. And then I will hope I came very fast on the A-team. The position I play is
    My biggest dream for the future is to be a football player. My favourite team is Liverpool and that is a big dream from I was young to play for them.
    but I am very happy if I can play in Tippeligaen.. It's the best football League in Norway.
    If I don t can live to football,
    I think I will be a porn star! No I just kidding I will be a policeman....:-D
    When I'm 18 years old , I hope I get the patch and then will I and my friends drive around to other countries.
    When I am a big man I will prefer to move to a warmer country than Norway. But I'm no good at languages so I think that not will happens. ..

    Future is an important and exciting topic. It is also quite difficult to write about, because I do not know what will happen. Anything can happen. Actually I know nothing about my future and I have no clear plan about what to do in the near future. Today I go in the first class on Lena High School, and the only thing I know is that I will complete the next few years of high school and play as much football as possible. I like to train a lot, and much of my time I use to train. I play on a foot team called FK Toten, and I think this season is going to be good. I hope I can develop myself as a footballer. Otherwise, I have not thought very much what I will educate me as, but I thought physiotherapy seems exciting.

    My future visions

    I don't really have thought of the future yet. I'm still going to school, and I'm not finished here until about two years. Now I have to concentrate of the school, and all my homework, so I can have the chance to work with something I want in the future. I'm spending all my time with soccer, handball , friends and school, so I haven't time to think about the future. All I know is that I want to take a break after high school and maybe travel to different countries and see the world. After that I have to get a good education so I can serve a lot of money. Later I will find a nice soccerman I can marry and have a lot of children with. But that is a long time to. Now I just want to live the life and have fun. I would like to good money, so I can buy a big house with a lot of stuff. Maybe I will move to another country. I'm not sure what my future job is going to be, but if I have to say something, I think a want to have a job where I can help people.

    I have not thought too much about what to do in the future. But I have a dream like everyone else. I want to be educated as physiotherapist, may I take the education in Norway or abroad. I also want to play soccer at such a high level as possible. Family: I want to find me a nice lady I can share the rest of my life with, we shall have two children. We will build our dream house and live happily until we are 100 years. In addition to the nice house, I had a cabin in Beitostølen. Beitostølen is one of the most popular winter spots, it is also nice there in the summer time.

    Right now I go to Lena High at Program For Specialization In General Studies And Sports. I enjoy here very much and I look forward to the last 2 1 / 2 years here.

    MY FUTURE PLANS
    “In det future ai wånt tu bi cool”, my brother wrote. I really love his English!
    As myself I do not have plans being a lazy adult, just sitting in my chair watching “home and away” or some other boring TV-show. I have plans travelling all around the world, watching, and getting to know every cultures in this world. Maybe not every, but as many as possible!
    I also want to play football at a high level. Or at least my father wants me to. But it would be fun!

    In secondary school I asked my teacher what I she though I should be. Myself I said that I was going to be the next pope or something. She told me cold and cheeky that I maybe should consider to be a prostitute. I nodded funny at her and laughed.

    Frankly, if I'm not going to do what I wrote above, I very likely will be a physiotherapist
    I love to help people, and by being a physiotherapist, I'm getting to that every day.

    And finally, as every others, I want to have a nice man, and get some fine children that loves me and respects me, and live happy ever after. Amen...

    I am a girl of 17 years. Coming from Gran and drivi with horses since I was 11 years. Now I go to Valle High School, and would like to be Farrier. Farrier is a very difficult profession, are not so many women in this profession, nor is a man's work. When I then made a trade certificate in Farrier, I will take 6-12 months in the U.S. or Australia, to study the horse! See wild horses running free across the prairie, it is what I ideally want, but I have very much to learn about different horse hold around the world also. When I then have been either the U.S. or Australia, I will learn equiterapeut, then there will be school in Sweden. So I will start my own business as equiterapeut, work fast and operate as Farrier as a hobby. I hope I will achieve all this, but it is not certain. But I will! My future plans depend on me, right?

    My up-time programs are becoming a riding teacher. I would like to start getting myself to run a riding school, and of course, be a good teacher and good ride rider. As it is today I can not very much, all / most of what I can about horses, I have taught myself, or someone in your family or friends who help me a bit. I and my family have 4 horses at home, and I love them all, but sometimes I could wish that my horses to a little more, I think the more that I have done a good job with them, but when I'm almost the only one in family rides so it is quite difficult now that I go to valle vgs, I live far away and I do not have with me some of my horses here and there is quite a long way back home, so I'm only home during holidays to sometimes on weekends show is something I must have done there. But fortunately, I have been allowed to ride some of the horses here at valle, and more experience will be a horse I ride, and every time I ride, as soon as I and some of the class trip to starum again to ride, and I look forward very much. I just love to run with horses, it's something I'll never lose interest in getting, I just love horses.

    My future?

    No one can really ask me about my future, because it's complicated. I never worry about it, I just doesn't know the meaning of it. It's not wrong to plan a little, but if you don't have a goal, you'll never be disappointed if you don't reach it. But I have some thoughts I've been planing to set out in life.

    Australia! That's my front goal. I want to work on a ranch in “the land down under.” If you're not used to be on a stable, you think it's only mucking out the stables and that sort of stuff, but it's not. Long trips on the horseback over the prairie. Work with the cattle. My dreams since I was a little girl. But that's a long therm goal, I don't expect it to happen for a few years. It's aloud to hope?

    Right now I just want to finish school and get out in the working life. School is non of my interests, but my mom force me to continue. It's kind of sad, but if it makes her happy, I'm willing to finish the year for her.

    Well done with the academic I wish to get married and live on a big farm, but it's not for me to decide. You see, I have this boyfriend who is a cook, and he wants to live in the city, running his own restaurant. It's his dream, so what about mine? I think we just have to work something out, because who knows, at this time next year he might fancy farming instead of cooking. At least I hope so ..

    Now I've wrote about my mom, my boyfriend, and me, and I cant wait to read about you! Thank you for reading, and sharing! :)

    Hugs and kisses, BK (Norway) :)

    In my future plans is to be an farmer in Fåvang. There I will have cows and pigs. I will also be in the forest and cut down trees, with chain saw. I have always like to work on the farm, because it is so many different things who happends. My tractor will be an New holland T5060 and a Fiat 82-94 or a Fiat 80-90. When I have gone 3 years on Valle vgs, I think I will go 2 years on Vinstra vgs. There I will work with machines for agriculture. When I am 27 years old I will take over the farm at home. Then I try to earn some money. JM

    I don't really know what will happen in the future, but at the moment I am a first-year student at Valle High School. My current plan is to become a landscape gardener. This means one more year in school and two years as an apprentice. I hope I've made the right choice, because I have never been one of those kids who always knew what they wanted to be when they grew up.
    I think you just have to try different things and see what you like.You can always change your career if you end up hating it. But I'm going to at least finish an education and get my certificate.
    I think I am more of a "wait and see what happens" type person, rather than someone who has their entire life mapped out. I have a hard time imagining what the future holds, as I am more concerned with what's happening right now. I think it's important to enjoy life as it happens,because you never know when your time is over. Five years from now I probably work as a landscape gardener,live in a small house somewhere near Gjøvik with a couple of animals and hopefully a nice boyfriend. Or I have moved to Africa to work as a tourist guide. Or I changed my mind about what I wanted to do,and started on yet another education! Or... Well,who knows? The future is unknown:)

    I've always known what I want in my life. And I know exactly what I wanna do in my future.
    Ever since I was born, I've been in love with horses. I always wanted to see our neighbours horse, and when mum was stupid enough to buy me a doll.. I put a saddle on it and used it as a horse. I can't imagine working with something else than horses.
    When I was 12 years old, I knew what I wanted to be. A farrier. Some people find that weird. I really want to stare at horse feet all day long? YES, I really do. I like to know that I'm doing something important for the horses. AND I think it's coooool. :p
    I also want to train horses. Crazy horses, young horses.. I love it when they have their own opininons and want to fight for them. And I love it when I get it MY way. In a way that doesn't kill their awesome craziness, of course. I like it when they finally understand something new and want to work with me.
    What more do I want in my future? Nothing much, really. I just wanna live at a nice place with a couple of horses. Maybe with a crazy husband who likes the same music as I do (I'll kill myself if I wake up to Mozart, or some else gay music..). And I want a dog who loves ruining stuff. They're so cute. :)

    The future is unknown to me. I dont really know what to do in my future. I just hope it gets better to be a farmer in norway. But there is so many things that I want to do in my future, that i am not sure what i want the most. I have a farm to take over, so my education points that way. But when i go on valle, I learn so much, that i have a basis to much occupations. And I think my interests will change as life goes on. But after school, I Right now want to drive machines, or else be a mechanic. But I dont know how long i will go on school. I drive much tractor, and I am doing much mechanics at home, so that is things I am in with. The choice of high school was not so very difficult. Because on Valle i get so much learning about much different things, all the things i want to be. I think the secret of happines maybe are that you feel happy in your occupation, and that you have enough time to family and some spare time. In 5 years I dont have an idea of where I am or what I`m doing. But as things seems now, I think I am driving machines then. But I must say that I would like to work at the farm when I have tried other occupations. Maybe when I am from 25 to 30 i want to work there.

    My future
    My name is Inger Pernille and I go the first year on Lena videregående skole (secondary school at Lena). I am 16 years old and do not know what I will in my future, but one day I will come home and know exactly what I want to be. When I was a little girl I really wanted to be a veterinarian, I think it is because I am very fond in animals and many other of my friends at my previous junior high school had the same dream. When I went my first year at secondary school we had a professional project. When I chose the profession of Veterinary and it was very exciting. I learned that education is very difficult and that I have to work really hard to achieve the goals of a veterinarian. I went to an animal clinic to interview a man who worked there. He showed me around the clinic, and he told me how you took X-rays on the animals. I learned how they complement his day job, and it was fun. After finding out a little about being a veterinarian, I think it maybe was not a job for me. I am not very fond of syringe either. I do not mean that I have nothing against vets, for that, I certainly do not; they rescue the many animals, after all! Seriously, I do not know at all what I want to be, but there is always a dream of every soul.

    My future career

    I dont think I still have any future career, but i`m interessted in many animals, like horses, dogs, rabbits, cows and a lot of outhers.

    I think that I want towork with animals, train horses and dogs maybe.
    I live on a farm so it isn`t difficult to have animals if I still live there when i`m old.
    We have a dog, horses, cows, rabbits and a cat, so I have ecperience.

    Veterinary is a good work, but I cant be that because then I need better character on the school, and I dont think I`m gonna make it, veterinarys have a difficult career because they have to take difficult conclusions if animals are ill, it is hard to understand what`s wrong sometimes, also for a Veterinary.

    I want to help people also, wiht animals naturally, I can direct someone who rides, and help them. And I can invite people on ride trips in the mountain. With fishing on our cottage on the mountain.

    Maybe I can have open farm, there people can come and see all the animals, they can be with and try to milk a cow, ride a hors and food the animals, it can be for children and adults.
    I can start a home for people with psychic or physical problems, I know that it will help them to be with animals and experience that the animals like them and trust them when they food them or work with them.

    There you see little of that I mean I can do.

    My future career.
    I will tell you about what my plans are fore the future and what i whant to be and why.

    Now I am going to Valle high school in Norway and i well try to get good grades so i come into veterinary college of medicine and maby i want to specialize myself in horse. I well go to Valle in three years so i get special admission. The reason i whan to be a veterinary are because i love to being with animals and i have had animals home sin i was a child.

    Fore a month ago i was in Denmark on internship weeks. I was going to the animals hospital in Faxe. It was a big hospital and the took all the animals. They had also some who was traveled around one different farm or stables to chek on the larger animals. After this trip i was even more certain that it was a vet i will be.

    But the problems is that i must have top grades in all subjects to get into high school. I think it's silly that i have to have top grades in all the subjects. Unless i'm100% good in Norwegian and english shall not have any meaning if i want to be a good vet or not. I now that is many peoples ho wants to be a vet and i understand that they take those with better grades. But there are some that do not take the informasion so easily, but they try as good as they can. But i am sure that those who have not so good grades can be as good or better vets who have goods grades. I belive that all learing a lot more now they lerrn about something they are interesred in. The knowledge will go much easier in the head, now i am talking mye own experience so i know what i'm talking about.

    Many people dont know what to do. I have a future plan that i hope well come true, i just have need to be able to concentrate on school and try to get good grades.

    I hope I well get some answer so that you will get to know me better. from Jane:)

    My future plans..

    I have always thought about how my future would be like. Always tried different things so it would be easier for me to choose.
    As a child I have always loved animals, but that's not a suprise since I live on a farm. And I have always had a weak heart for animals that need help. I have in a sense always taken care of the weak ones. That is why I have decided to be an animal doctor. I know it's a long professional race, but it is what I've planned and it is what I am aming for. You all probably know what an animal doctor is, so I don't have to go in details to explain.
    After my three years in upper secondary school I have decided to try the military with my friend, first-time service. If I don't make it, Im going strait into veterinary college. The part that scares me to death is that I don't know what to do if I don't make it into veterinary college. I don't have a clue. There are other things that I would might consider but my goal is to be an animal doctor.
    The military is something I've wanted for quit some time. I fell in love with the military and everything around it after I had been there, some years ago now but I loved it. That was the most incredible experience I have ever had.

    So know you know what my future plans are, I really hope it will turn out just fine, but who knows what lies around the next turn..

    The future is a very big topic to talk about. We can´t predict the future, but we can make plans for our own future. The last few years I've been thinking a lot of the future and I know exactly what I want to do. I want to be a veterinarian. I think I've done everything I could to make my future plans to seem realistic, but you never know. Do I think my interests will change? Of course interests change, as a little child I wanted to be a hairdresser. I couldn't think about a job like that now, it seems boring. Interests depends on age, but I don´t think my interests will change that much anymore. I think that schools prepare for work or academic life, but not completely. It´s not the same to be a pupil or to be an adult. When you are adult I think you have more responsibility.
    I don´t think my future plans are complicated because I know exactly what I want to do. I've always had a dream about being a veterinarian. To make my goals I have to work hard on school and focus on my grades. It is very hard to get in on the veterinary school in Norway, so I really want to move to another country to study. I´ve looked on the internet and I´ve found a lot of exciting places to study. The most realistic places I can move to are Germany or England maybe. But I've also thougt about places far away, such as Australia and New Zealand. I don´t think I'm going to move that far, but it sounds very fun to live there for some years! But before I start on the university I have to complete high school. I am on my first year on Valle high school and I'm going to be here for the next two-three years. My goal is to get general admission to study on universities. The reason for why I want to be a veterinarian is that I love animals. I want to help them and show that I care about them. I also think it sounds interesting to operate and do medical exercises. I could have been a doctor, but I like to work with animals more than humans. My opinion about happiness is very simple; follow your dreams and believe in yourself! Then you'll get very far, and don´t forget to smile on the way. In few years I probably will sit on a university some place in the world, thinking about medical problems and things like that. Even further in my future, ten years from now or something, I think I'm back in Norway. I have got my own place to live, hopefully a big place with a big, white house and a stable. I also hope I have a kind husband and maybe some children, at least one. As I said before, we can´t predict the future. But anyways, I hope this will be my future. I wish it so deep, and I'm going to work hard to realize my dreams. I believe I´ve chosen the right way in my life, and time will show.

    My future plans..

    I'm not like 'I don't know what I want', because I'm actually that lucky that I know what I want. But I have one problem, I want very much, maybe to much. I love to be in the forest, hunting, fishing or just hiking. So I would love to have a job that has something with the forest to do. This is why I want to be a nature manager. A nature manager can, for example, work for someone with a lot of outfield, and then she/he gets the responsibility for maintaining the balance between, for example, predators and other animals such as moose in the area. To become this, I have to go to college on Evenstad for three years. This is one part of all of my plans.

    Also, I really want to go in the military. This is something I have wanted for a very long time. And this is not impossible to implement, if I take it between the upper secondary school and college. I want to go in the military because I think it will be one fantastic experience.

    But still I have some more plans, because I love the sport I'm doing. I love boxing. I know this may sound a bit surreal, but I want to be good. And I think, hope, that after a lot of training, and this will take some years, I actually can be good. And this dream crashes in a way with all the other plans, because I think doing everything may become a little bit to much.

    I'm going to try to do everything, and I hope I can make it!

And work with animales, that's a dream too.I have decide that i'm going to do something with animales, that's for sure. But what worj with animales, that's still a question. My plans for the fiture haven't change so much with the years. I still know what i want, but my viewpoint on my future have change. It's much harder to know what I will do with my future know. I need to decide what i'm going to do the rest of my life, and that should be somethink I like to do. But back to school. Next year i'm going to continue on Valle vgs. I'm going to go here for three years. And five years form now. Where do i live? What do i work with? How do i live? And have my future plans dream come true? That's a big question. But i hope that they have, and i'm going to work for it. But what i hope for in five years. I'm still young, and i'm not finished with school i think. I don't think that i have that big farm, with that big withe house and many animales that i dreamed of. Five years are not a very long time if you think about it. I'm just 21 years in five years. I know i will go on school, but I don't know more. And many things can happend in five years too. Mabye my future plans have change?

    When I'm older I want to buy a house with a stable so that I can work for my own and get children with my boyfriend.
    Start with a few horses and dogs. If it turns out that I want something else, wich I dought on, I have other plans.
    I have been thinking about educating to become a dog trainer. I have been very excited about dogs since I was younger and it seems like I would enjoy working as a dog trainer . I also like to travel. I would like to work at a hotell or something in another country in my younger years, maybe when I am 20 most because of the experience but also for the money. I am still thinking about if I should keep dogs as a hoby or if I want to work with them in a daily basis. I do have a dream of living in a big brown house surrounded by trees and bushes. With a big stable and horses. A few dogs, a cat, goats, bison, and horses! My wish is to own a Shire horse within the next 5 years, and in my stable there would be a lot of black horses.

    Future plans
    Hello, my name is Sondre and I live in a farm and I am a student on Valle high school. Valle is a school for us who like nature and animals, so I guess that’s what my future will contain. Next year I plan to start on a new year here on Valle, it will be my second year. In this second year I will learn more about farming, animals, grass, corn and seeds. Then I will take a third year on Valle, who includes more economy, and stuff like that. After that I don’t know yet, but probably I will take another year someplace. Maybe I will start on a mechanic school.
    Then I hope to get a job after I am done on school, I don’t know what I want to work with yet, but hope I will find something. Maybe on another farm, or in an sawmill, or in a shop, maybe an mechanic.
    Anyway, in my later future I hope to take over the farm where I live, back in Gausdal, maybe expand it some. We are by the way having milk cows at our farm as well as beef cows.
    I hope Kristian will get a farm near me so me, my neighbor and my friend Kristian work together and help each other. We are dreaming about john Deere tractors and forage harvesters every day. This is probably just a dream, but you never know.

    Hello!
    About my future plans – right now I think I`d like to go somewhere outside Latvia to look for some study places, or just find some job, where I can earn some money! Offcourse if here (in Latvia) will be some good places where I be able to work or maybe study, then maybe I will stay in Latvija. Actually right now I don`t want to think about my future plans, because now I am thinking only about secondary school. First I have to finish secondary school, and then I can try to get in some university, if I don’t get there then I can start think about job. About academy`s where I will try to get in will be Sports academy in Riga, thats because I am very athletic people, another way is go to Jelgava, to LLU (in Latvian language its Latvijas Lauksaimniecības universitāte)! About my interests, I don’t think that after finishing school I will forget about my interests and hobbies.
    But now I just try to enjoy my life, with my friends and school mates! And I will try to do all possible to make my future plans come true!

    Hello all!

    Right now I really don't have many ideas what to do after finishing secondary school. But, anyway, I still have thinking about that. Firstly I need to finish secondary school with good results. After that I think I will study something connected with geography, because geography is one of my favorite lessons. Of course it is only one of opinion to select. But I think it is best select for me because my family doesn't have enough resources to pay fee for studying. So I have to select sectors where my knowledge is very good so I can be able to get into budget group.

    Hi,
    Every one thinks about what his want to be in future. I think about it, too. Of course many future plans is change and again to fallow next plan but one of my future plan isn’t change and it is entailed with my future occupation.
    Of course everyone who have some future plans, then change they lifetime. Certainly I have changed my lifetime when I understand what I want to be in future. I think it is very important to know what you want to be in future already now. Prior is that if your school prepare you for academic life. And I think that school don’t prepare for academic life because school never know who wait you in work or academic life.
    My future occupation is to be a captain of ship. My first step when I choose this occupation was when I and my family passage to Finland. And this travel was the first when I to come on board. And I like this occupation because in this occupation you always see something new in world.
    And it is shortly all about my future occupation. I hope you have some thinks what you want to do in future because it is important to know what you want to do.

    Oh, dear. My future plans,in general, are very simple, but the way to get my "future happen" it's not that simple.
    I want to study a lot. I don't know yet what. I like so many things so many subjects in school, for example English, IT, chemistry, anatomy, history and so on.
    So, what i really wish for is being student for as long as possible, because right now I really don't know what I want in my life.
    I'm sure I want family and all the nice and not so nice things, that comes with that.
    I want to see the world climb the mountains and bathe at the sees, and I can make it happen I'm just wondering how and when and will I want that in some years.
    My life is pretty busy already, I have my friends from all over the place that I care about and my boyfriend that lives 2000 km away from me.
    I feel funny when I say something about my future, because after all you never know what happens tomorrow or just in 5 minutes, but i hope it works out for best.

    It’s really unclear. I haven’t thought about it jet. I know, that until now I have to been planed my future at least few years. But I haven’t. It’s hard to definite what I want and what I will do when I graduate high school. I hope that I figured that out sometimes.
    At first I thought that high school is my thing and I need learn there, but now I don’t know do I need this and what I will do after it. I would be something in my life but I haven’t decided who I want to be. Maybe a doctor, teacher or salesman, I don’t know.
    So my future is very unclear. I don’t know about my tomorrow nothing much, so how could I know about my life after school. I know that I have to do some things in my life, but I don’t figured jet which things and how. I hope I will.

    Future...
    This is tough topic for me because i haven't really thought much about future so it will be hard for me to answer some of these question properly. I don't think that my interests will change in my life time but you can never know, there is still many things for me to experience.
    My school might prepare me a little bit for work or academic life, i will see that after I graduate. After finishing school I thought about going to study abroad. How my future career might progress depends on how serious i will be about it. I haven't thought about where to learn the necessary skills for my future job and i still haven't even specified what will my future career be but it will be related to computers or something similar. It's hard for me to imagine myself in 5 years because it's hard to predict how things will go, they might go bad or good. Andris B. (S)

    Hello,
    This is very exciting topic. Of course I think that my interests will change during my life time. For example when I was child I was interested in cartoons, lego and other things. But now everything has changed and I'm interested in cars, bikes, girls. I think that after two years my interests will be working and studying.
    I think that my school prepare me for basic things, but if I want good job or get in good academy I have to learn more by my self.
    This is hard question about future plans after school. I haven't decided yet what I will do. It will depend on situation in country. Maybe I will work some years and then go to academy, but if I will get place in bughet group I will study. I haven't thought about carrer progress. I will study in RTU (Rigas Technical university) or LU (University of Latvia)
    I think it could be happiness and knowledge.
    It's quite difficult to imagine myself after 5 years, but i will try. I might be working in VALPRO SIA as an engineer or in some other company as enginner.
