You Should Be a Teacher

You are patient, optimistic, and good at explaining things. You work well with all types of people, and you are a good role model. Success and positive outcomes are extremely important to you. You are both a good leader and instructor. People look up to and depend on you. You do best when you: - Can see the results of your work - Are able to teach someone a new skill You would also be a good nurse or non fiction writer.

What Should You Be When You Grow Up?

Taking this quiz was kind of funny because all you have to do is choose one of eight patterns that most appeals to you. It took me a little while to narrow it down, but when I finally decided and it said I should be a teacher, I couldn't help but laugh to myself because that's actually what I've recently been thinking about doing. Maybe it's a sign. I really do enjoy teaching people new things and being able to see the results of my efforts, so maybe I really will become a teacher despite the stigma often carried with that profession and the "the look" that I will inevitably receive from more than one person when I confess my career of choice.


What is so wrong with being a teacher, anyway? Yes, I probably won't get rich from teaching high school students to dot their i's and how to form complete sentences, but their future employers will be grateful, and who knows how long I'll be bringing bringing the ship into port all by me onsie, anyway? A single person with absolutely no dependents and no sign of any in the near future does not need overwhelming amounts of extra moolah. With nothing to spend it on and nothing to save up for (That's not to say I'll be closing my savings account), it's as good as presidential flash cards. I would be able to buy a car on a teacher's salary. I could buy a house, a big screen TV, a puppy, whatever. I would be totally fine funding my own cause, and I'd even donate to charity, all while doing something I enjoy and making a difference in kids' lives. Granted, not all people look back and remember thier high school English teachers, but I'll do it for those who will remember me and for those who wish they would have paid better attention in my class.


I'm really beginning to think this is something I am going to pursue. I've had plenty of other goals and I've written up countless life plans, but I don't think I've ever felt as confident about one of my hypothetical careers before. I like kids that age; I get along with them; I can talk with them. My supposed Peter Pan complex may even come in handy. I would always have a nice Christmas break, not to mention all the little holidays that no one ever celebrates except students, teachers, and postal workers. It doesn't sound like a bad deal to me. Maybe I'll even teach college someday.

The Magical Fruit

You Are a Banana

You are mellow, easy going, and a total softie on the inside. People find it really easy to get along with you. You suit most tastes. And while you're very sweet, you're not boring or ordinary. You have an attraction to the exotic, and you could show up anywhere... doing almost anything! You are spirited, energetic, and a total kick to be around. You're also quite funny. Your sense of humor is on the goofy side, and it fits you well.

What Type of Fruit Are You?

The Hunt

I'm currently looking for a job. Any suggestions? I'll admit I haven't been putting forth a whole lot of effort. I have started filling out applications and compiling a resume, but I always get stuck when I get to "special skills" and former "job responsibilities." Sometimes I have the urge to be sarcastic in my responses, but then I would just have to go pick up a new application and repeat the process until I got stuck again. Reason for leaving job: It sucked. Special skills: Excellent price tag application training (Thank you Jansport.). It's not like the places I'm applying to require people with excessive amounts of brain power. I just need some money so I can go back to school and eventually get a real job.
