My Future

Ever since I was younger I always had my mindset on being one profession and one profession ONLY. That was to be a Forensic Pathologist. The only thing unrealistic was that I wanted to be the top one in Australia by day and later on in the night I wanted to be a dance teacher or back up dancer for a music performer. I never was actually in a professional dance class growing up but YouTube.com definitely helped me develop techniques and become a pretty good dancer. Being so little with those type of dreams and everyone wanting to be a singer, a princess, or even a transformer, I always felt mine was more realistic and that if I was serious I should start focusing now. When I would speak on my future and work on little experiments with my forensic kits, everyone would look at me impressed but then turn to my mom and say "Oh shes going to change her mind soon, I wouldn't bother spending all this money on stuff now". I would always hear what they say and some times it would annoy me but it just  made me want to do it even more, not only for myself but to prove everyone wrong.

A Forensic Pathologist performs similar work of a Medical Examiner, the difference is that Medical Examiners are medically qualified public officers who investigates suspicious deaths, they either perform the autopsy or order one. On the other hand, a Forensic Pathologist is a MD, who performs the autopsies for legal reasons during the investigation of a crime, they examine and analyze injuries/organs to determine cause of death. Some pathologists are even called upon in court to speak on their findings. 

With having this dream, I realized I can't work in any of the places I frequent due to the simple fact that if someone I know is presented to me at work I wouldn't be able to handle it. So my new goal to replace Australia is Texas, I love hot weather, it's affordable and I don't know a soul out there.
