Answer 1

yea most of us get all confused and frustrated. well i remembered when i was a little girl that i really like drawing, and doing art and enjoyed the outdoors. as i grew up i took my camera everywhere. i really liked capturing a special moment in time so i can look back on later and not missed it. so that is how i knew that i wanted to be a photographer. i want to get into something with either writting, like a journalist, or with art. mostly with arts, because that is wat i have a passion for. i hope that you find what makes you passionate and go for it:]] good luck!

Answer 2

Well, I had no idea untell I got braces. It sounds so lame, but it totally changed my life.

One, I don't look like I was adopted anymore-the (damon) braces widened my face and I look like my mom now. I don't understand how it worked, but it did.

Two, I have a beautiful smile and it really boosted my confidence and helped me in my relationship to be more outgoing.

The day I got my braces off and looked in the mirror is when I decided to be an Orthodontist. It changed my life so much and I decided to do that for other people. It sounds like a lame story, but they really did so much for me emotionally that I wanted to be responsible for that feeling in others. :P
