Wow much holidays.
Urgh.
Year 12 is something else let me tell you. Just first term, they really wanna hit you. Like bam. School sucks kids, don't do it. lol.
So I've seriously been thinking about becoming a primary school teacher. I use to want to be a librarian, but once I actually did some research on how to become one it just didn't seem as appealing to me as it use to. I guess i was associating librarian with the old system. You know, when everything was written down instead of computerised. So to be a librarian you have to do IT, which I'm not into. Surprise surprise, the internet and computer lover isn't into IT? Yeah, I'm not, I love the internet, but I don't love LOVE computers. At the end of the day I get more joy out of doing things hand on. (I don't even like how you can apply for jobs over the net, I'm a firm believer of handing in your resume directly.)
So yeah, as much as I love doing stuff on the computers, I don't want it to be my life. Aka, I don't want to sit in front of a computer at a desk all day.
But the main reason I wanted to become a librarian was because of books. I wanted to look after them basically and I want to encourage future generations to keep on reading the physical copies of novels. I hardly see kids reading these days, most of them are on their phones or gaming consoles. It's just sad really, because there is so much that they're missing out on.
So that's when I thought about becoming a primary school teacher. It's not the first time I've though of going down that road. As a kid I loved to play schools a lot, and I always liked being the teacher. So it's been in the back of my mind that I would enjoy becoming a teacher for as long as I can remember. The reason I want to be teacher though isn't because I love kids (don't get me wrong I DO love kids, they're a lot nicer than aldults half the time, and most of them aren't as mean as teenagers, so it's refreshing to be around them sometimes, away from the "grown-ups" so to say. They can also be a lot wiser in a sense when they haven't been exposed to the bad side of the world.) I want to teach so I can educated. Simple as that. I want to educate future generations and provide children with knowledge really. When I think about a kid learning something new that just brings me joy, because new things, to me at least, is one of the best feelings ever.
I have been a bit stressful about my future though, you know, becoming an adult. Getting a job, going to uni. It's confronting I guess to me because my entire life up to now has been that of a kid, and after this year I'm going to have to 'grow-up' and go out into the 'real world'. Which is weird because it's new, it'll be way different to how I've lived my life up until then. And that's weird, right? It's like taking a fish out of a tank they've lived in for 17 years and then plonking them into a brand new one with different water. That's really the only way I can describe it.
But yeah, I've acknowledged that I'm supposed to feel like this, and I guess everybody my age probably has these sort of worries in their minds.
So yeah, just a small update from me. I think I'll write another post, to update on what I've been doing. Otherwise this one will be really long.
