RE: SteemAlive Presents: Inside Life! An engaging contest story tracing career paths from childhood. (60 Steem Prize + upvotes)

in SteemAlive4 years ago (edited)

Hello, i'm really delighted in participating in this contest, based on the aforementioned by @steemalive, i bring to you my childhood career path.

When i was a kid, i could remember when i gather with my friends and then in our discussion, we will be talking about our career path. i told my friends that i will be a medical doctor, lolz, doctor that doesn't know how to read and write then. I said this because all my friends choose the path of becoming a doctor, I had to join them. This was during my primary school days, when i entered secondary school level, i still worked with that goal of becoming a medical doctor. Anytime my friends sees they call me young doctor and this gives me joy. So i studied hard, like i said earlier, i don't know anything, how to read i don't know even to write self na war. So i had to struggle in other to become a medical doctor.

I hated acts department because I'm not good in oral, so this made me to choose science during my senior secondary school days.

one day I met a friend of mine, He was writing some programing language, programming his website with javascript, then i didn't know its called javascript . I made some research and found out that it is all about computer and languages. So I had to key into it, it became interesting and then the passion to become a web programmer(front-end developer) started developing inside me. i had to change the dream which i have been nursing for many years today from doctor to a computer scientist. Today I'm still on the pursuit of being a computer scientist, I'm currently level 100 studying computer sci. I believe before i would finish the course i will become the person i ought to be in life. Though in nigerian institutions today, Lecturers don't basically teach you how to write a program. So i go extra miles in research and learning just to become a professional website developer.

Thanks for reading

@marydexplorer, it was tough/uneasy situation that even made me unbalance on my first career path, i choose the path of being a medical doctor because almost all my friends are into that path. It was quite unfortunate that they didn't motivate me. The career that motivated me was that of programming. I dream to become to become a professional programmer and i'm into because of the passion i have for it.

Espero que logres ser un gran científico.

Being a doctor back then was the common trend while in school. I don't really know how easy we thought being a doctor could be. You wouldn't blame us for being intrigued by the thought of seeing ourselves in the shoes of a doctor at that little age whereas the reality is that being a doctor requires utmost concentration and reading.

Yeah, back then in school almost all of them were in this career path, it was funny when i received a call from a friend aspiring to be a doctor back then in secondary school days, i asked him about his later career path he told me that he's currently studying statistics, lolz. You know, Being a medical doctor requires more of reading and concentration.

@bright-obias. Amazing Story. It's really interesting to see that your friends both inspired your first choice of Medical doctor and another friend also inspired you to now study Computer Science. Happy you didn't miss the two. So far, do you love the Computing career you finally settled for. If given another chance between medicine and Computing, which will you choose?
