Choosing a career
Posted on: January 5, 2014
When you attend year 9, you know that soon enough you will have to make a few decisions concerning your future.
Then you start asking yourself questions:
- Should I get a job or go on studying?
- If I get a job, what kind of job should I look for?
- If I go on studying, what sort of subjects or course should I pick?
- A vocational course? A regular one? Which career should I choose ?
- …
Well, maybe these are the wrong questions. First you have to analyse yourself.
You need to think about your personality, your interests and your skills.
- What are you like? What kind of person?
- What areas, hobbies are you interested in?
- What are you good at?
- What do you imagine yourself doing in about 10 years?
- …
Getting an answer to those questions might help you choose a future.
You can also get some help from specialised websites which try to give young people a hand to choose a career path.
Take a look at those two links below. They provide two quizzes that could help you.

Posted on: February 3, 2013
St Valentine’s Day – 14th February
Well, well, dear ones, are you ready for Cupid’s shot? St Valentine’s Day is approaching and we should start preparing our celebrations.
Are there any suggestions?
- Why not write a St Valentine’s letter or a romantic message? Look at these rhymes. It’s quite easy!!
They can be sweet or funny like these two:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue;
Please don’t kiss me
Because I have the flu.
Roses are red
School is out
I need a vacation
There is no doubt.
So let’s start writing! I’m waiting for your rhymes or messages.
