Whenever someone would ask me what I want to be when I grow up, it seems like my family has already planned things out for me. My grandma wanted me to become a doctor and my mom wanted me to become a lawyer.
Let's talk about grandma's dream first. Grandma wanted me to become a doctor. Being a doctor is a great profession except I am not fond of blood. How will I be able to take care of patients if the sight of blood scares me? Another reason is that I sometimes can't even remember what I ate for dinner. So, if I can't even remember something as simple as that then how will I be able to detect what is wrong with sick people? Also, I can't even imagine having to do surgery. I am not sure if I will be able to cut someone open and not feel any remorse. Sorry grandma but I don't think becoming a doctor in any way suits me, hehe.
Now, let's move on to my mom. She wanted me to become a lawyer. I understand that she thought it would be a good career choice for me but I just don't like fighting people. I would rather be mute and not say anything that could possibly lead to an argument than to fight. Imagine me having to fight in a court room. I would probably beat myself up for even thinking about becoming a lawyer!
To be honest, all I want is a career path that is fun instead of a stressful and tiring job. I know working is essential but when given a choice between a boring occupation and an enjoyable one then I would pick the latter without a second thought.
My decision is to become a food vlogger. I absolutely love eating and the thought of getting to eat different types of foods sounds absolutely phenomenal to me. I want to be able to fly around the world and taste all sorts of dishes. One day I could be in Italy eating delicious pizza and the next day, I could be in Japan eating ramen. There will always be something new that I can try and review.
And being a food vlogger doesn't just mean getting to eat. I will also have to make qualitiful videos and edit it. Still I prefer doing something that I am truly passionate about. Like there already so many stressful things in my life so why not be able to make a living out of something that I love? So yeah, my endgame would be food vlogging.
