Career Day Experience

Career day today was a very interesting learning experience for me and many others.  The 4 careers I sat in on were Music, Special Education, Ministry, and Nursing.  From these sessions, I learned many things.  For example, I decided that I never want to go into the music business because there are too many downsides and risks on that occupational path.  On the other hand, I realized that nursing is something I think would be fun and could be passionate about if I choose to take that  path in the future.  Therefore, my favorite session of the day was the nursing session.  I enjoyed it a lot because our speaker gave us lots of beneficial information not only about nursing itself, but she also talked about steps we should take now in high-school  to prepare us for the nursing career path we might decide  to take in college.  She was also very honest about the nature of the work and what a normal day in the life of a nurse is like.  She also discussed many different paths within the medical field, which gave me a nice perspective on the many options I would have if I chose to go  to nursing school.  I'm very glad I chose the nursing session and there are lots of beneficial  things that I learned from  it.
