Future thoughts
by Sally Jansen
Have you thought about what you want to do
in your future career yet? It’s hard, especially
✓ ✗ DS if you’re still at school and you don’t really feel
keen enough on anything you’ve studied there
to do it for the rest of your life! A number of my 5
friends feel like that, although quite a few others
have got very clear ideas about where they’re
going. One wants to be a teacher, for example,
and another wants to become a doctor.
However, I think some people have decided 10
what they want to do because of their parents’
careers. As for my parents, my father is an
engineer in the car industry, and my mother
runs her own food business, supplying food for
parties. Dad works really long hours, and 15
they’re both usually really tired by the time they
get home, so those jobs have never seemed very
attractive to me.
Recently though, I’ve started doing more art at
school. I did well in my last Art exam and my 20
teacher has said some really encouraging things
about my work. That’s all made me wonder
whether I could study it at university and then
earn money as an artist. But just like my parents’
25
jobs, I know that wouldn’t be easy, either –
there might be problems finding work
sometimes. And at least if you work for a
company, you get paid every month. But I’d
rather do something I really enjoy than earn
a lot of money. 30
Anyway, my whole class went off on work
experience a month ago, so I spent two weeks
helping out in an artists’ studio. It was great! I
/10 did things like mixing paint, preparing paper
and even answering the phone when people 35
rang asking about buying a piece of artwork.
The artists working there were doing different
things. One was a painter and another worked
with metal, making amazing life-sized shapes
of horses and tigers. They’re displayed in parks 40
and town centres and our school is even going to
have one soon. When it arrives, it’ll be absolutely
amazing to think that I helped to make it!

girls if they want.
Outside school though, I wear really colourful
