Experience for animal career + college?

Experience for animal career + college?
Now, I already asked what should I do when I am older because i am in love with animals. I want to own a rescue in Africa some day but to get to that point i need to have a plan. So I decided to start with a job. That also got me thinking about college i wanna go for nutrtion and zology. but since im 13 all i can do is make money.. and get experience. and idk what experience they are looking for, i need ideas. I own two birds and two dogs. I work in a grooming salon... Posh Pet. I lived on a farm in Brazil for one week. I dont know what other experience i could have?

You need to do great in HS to get into college. So getting experience with animals is great, don't let it get in the way of your grades. You will need high grades to get into a good college. Your grades and your ACT score is going to matter more to colleges than how much experience you have with animals. You can major in zoology without having high school experience with animals. Do some community work with animals at a shelter. You are going to need community volunteer hours anyways for HS.

You have very high expectations, and that is a good thing! Take as many higher level math and science classes as you can. It is not enough to just take them, though-do your very best in them. Get all of the experience with animals that you can. I suggest volunteering at your local SPCA, shadowing your vet, and getting involved in a local animal rescue organization. The experience of having pets is good, but not 'good enough'. Keep a journal. Write down your observations of them, and your experiences with them as it would be relevant to your career goal-for instance, your observation of them acting abnormally and what you think is the problem adn/or the fix, and then compare that to what the vet says. The American Red Cross offers Pet First Aid classes. Take one! I would study Africa, as well, if that is where you want to live and work some day. You will need to study the animals that live there, the history, the culture, the language. Learn about non profits and the rules and regulations of them-this is another reason why it would be good for you to get involved with one locally. You do not need to know just how to care for the animals, but also how to raise funds to be able to operate, etc. Do your very best in all of your courses. You still need to have fun, though-be sure to do extracurricular activities such as playing a Sport, learning to play a musical instrument, etc. Also, a veterinary degree might be beneficial and/or necessary. Start looking into that now! And if you want, contact me. I have an 11 year old daughter that aspires to be a vet, and we have done a lot of research into the requirements and various resources. I wish you the best!

I was born in the wrong country?? Pls comment?

I was born in the wrong country?? Pls comment?
I was born in brazil but I always felt like I don't belong here, honestly since I was a little boy I would choose a can of coke and a Mcdonald's Burger instead of a weird brazilian dish, I learned english by myself watching cable tv "it's not that good but"... among other things that make people crazy here.like my american flag on my house my muscle car etc... I know the some people may think it's cheesy but I LOVE AMERICA and I'm not talking about the opportunity of making money cause I'm fairly wealthy even to America's standards. I really don't know how to explain All I know is that I wish I was born in America. Please comment thanks I would trade a german family noble title for it. and just for the record I don't need any money I don't need any job I worth many millions of USD exactly 65.000.000.00

Well, it is nice to hear someone in another country who isn't bashing the USA! Thank you for that. Ever think of emigrating to the USA? Get your burgers and Coke from the real source! Have you ever visited "our" country? In my younger years I was absolutely convinced that I was born in the wrong country and longed to live in England. I still like England but in my older years I have come to respect, appreciate and cherish the country of my birth, the United States of America. Have a wonderful Christmas.

That's very nice. Hope you'll come see us.
5 :
You should be ashamed of yourself.

Hello I completely understand you, and yes i felt the same when i was young, for some reason my culture in my country and everything seemed just wrong to be, and i felt always out of place, and yes i came to the USA, and it was not easy to stay, i have to kissed a lot of american asses until I got my paper, now i created my company, and kick american asses, and we are very successful providing advisory to Fortune 500 companies. Do you think I thought I could be an entrepreneur in the USA and with the levels of people I work with, it is incredible, I finished my Phd in the USA, and I am proud of it, I pay taxes with pride, and no I do not miss my country one single day. I know it is beautiful, great beaches, great people, but for some reason, sometimes you cannot be a prophet in your land. When I am home, i do not feel any desire to do anything creative, I have no ideas, I have no challenges, in the USA everyday is something new that comes to my head, and I love this country with its good and bad things.

with all that money you can buy a Green card very easily you need an EB-5
9 :
So what is your question ?
10 :
Well, you are lucky you are wealthy. Wealthy people can easily immigrate anywhere, including the US. Its poor people that countries try to keep out. If you have money, just hire a lawyer in the US. He can get you a green card in no time. You may be needed to answer some questions about the US constitution and history, but its piece of cake. I am brazilian too, and I dont love the US, nor do I love Brazil. I love the world and humanity. ps: what the hell do you mean with "weird brazilian dish"? Brazilian dishes are pretty international and Burguer and Cokes are good OCCASIONALLY, but they are responsible for the huge levels of obesity in the US. I am sure many americans will frown at your teenager naive obcessed way of looking at burguers and coke. most americans with a minimum of self respect and good taste will avoid burguers and coke unless they are out of time and need fast food.

I am 20, no job. I have 15000$.?

I am 20, no job. I have 15000$.?
I am young, free, and ready to explore this world on my own. I have recently graduated from university and because I haven't been able to find a job for the last month I feel like saying "fuck it" and enjoying my life. I have no debt, no kids, no relationships I am tied down to, no place that I call home, and no problems. I have yet to be sapped of my youth from a mundane cubicle corporate job and I have yet to become jaded by the problems of this world. So I have 15000$ in my pocket, a good friend, and a backpack. I want to pack my laptop, a week's worth of clothing, some money, and survival equipment and just travel. I am thinking of leaving the USA for an undetermined amount of time to travel the world. We will most likely start from New York and make our way through the continental United States, into Mexico and travel through Central America and South America for 1.5 years. I am fluent in Spanish and French, so the language barrier won't be an issue except for in Brazil. Afterward we will most likely backpack Europe, North Africa, and then Southeast Asia over 3 years. In total the round the world trip will take 5 years, but we plan to live in places until we grow bored of them. We are young, fit, ready to party, learn new cultures, and embrace the world before we become too old to enjoy it. We both have skills with programming and website design so we can make money wherever there is an internet connection. We can survive below our means when traveling so financing the trip isn't an issue. We calculated that it would cost about 30$ a day in South America, India, Pakistan, and Central America, and North Africa; 50$a day in Europe and South East Asia. Should we just fuck conforming to the expected social norms, put off a family and getting married, and live out the dream? We have no responsibilities now, so why not wait to gain them? I do have a passport.

What is the movie I am thinking about? 10 PTS + 5 STARS!!?

What is the movie I am thinking about? 10 PTS + 5 STARS!!?
The movie takes place in Brazil. Its about an american guy, his sister, and his sisters friend, and maybe another guy. They get stuck in Brazil because they missed the bus that takes them to the airport. Anyways I remember along in the movie that they trust some guy that lives in Brazil to take them to his Uncles house because they needed a place to stay. Anyways the sisters friend get killed because the guys uncle is apparently a guy that sells body parts to make money. And his sister barely lives. In the end i think they go back to the US.
