Did you/do you plan to go to uni? Yes, wanted to do nursing, missed the boat, ended up doing certificate IV in Nursing Div 2 and hated aged care so gave that idea up for now. Might go back and do psych, people interest me.

What age did you/do you want to get married? Never saw the need, but i guess every little girl dreams of what her wedding will be like. Got over that at about age 21.

When did you/do you want your first child? I actually did what I had always planned to do and that was to start having kids in my mid 20's, and i have two beautiful girls. What's this about not wanting girls, people? They are just as beautiful as boys. More fun to go shopping for, too!

What is my dream career? Masseur for the Colliingwood football team, of course!
What ambitions did you have? To become a nurse. Well, that worked out. Not!

Why do you think it's sad that you don't want kids, Leelee? That's a very personal choice and I don't hold it against people if they don't want kids. It's not selfish either, like some people think. Everyone's different. Good on you, I hope you end up working for Collingwood, it's good to know the club's got real supporters working for it. Believe me, i'd work up there too if it wasn't so expensive to rent in Melbourne and I didn't have to uproot my kids from school and everything.

OMG!! Are you serious?!?! Thats freaky...
I've got Sportsready WE Dates for October! I'm thinking about chucking it in though... Heaps of photocopying and crap, not really a fun experience.
When's yours Katie?

Did/do you plan on going to Uni? I am currently at Tafe doing my Diploma of Children's Services, but hope to eventually go to Uni and do a Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education to be a Kindergarten teacher or continue at Tafe and do my Advanced Diploma of Children's Services to become a child care centre Director

What age did/do you wanna get married? Well, before my long term partner left me, I wanted to get married at 20!! But now, hopefully I'll find someone in the near future, and I can get married in my early 20's. I'd die if I wasn't married by 25! People think I'm strange, but I just think it's such a beautiful thing.

When do/did you want your first child? As soon as I am married, I am going to try have children!! I want 4!! I don't care what sex! I love all the kids at my work, and I see beautiful qualities in both sexes! It'd be way too hard to choose which sex I'd pick if I could!

What was/ is your dream career? I want to be a Kindergarten Teacher, and evenutally, one day, build my own child care centre. I'd love to be the director of my own centre, but then going to Uni to become a Kindergarten teacher was a bit of a waste of time!! I haven't decided which way I'm going to go yet though.

What ambitions do/ did you have? Marry young, Have children young, Become a teacher in an early childhood setting and be remembered by my pre-schoolers, own a child care centre (or a million and buy out ABC!!) and build a beautiful colonial house on a big acreage out at Yarra Glen!!!

Love always, Alyssa xoxo

I wasn't saying that you didn't work to get the experience or a position etc. What I am saying is that too many young people have high expectations to get into a good job straight up and not have to do any bottom end work. In my case, I am lucky and am extremely grateful that I started early because I see so many girls my age now in office jobs that are making coffee, getting treated like shit and do the bottom end duties. When people find out what I do and how much money I earn, they automatically think they are going to get something like that.

Traineeships are basically a gift, but they won't guarantee you a job elsewhere once you have finished. 2 weeks working experience means jack shit to be honest.

I start working full time when I was 15, and am now 20. It was only until I was 19 that I gradually started to get out of junior positions and people treated me with at least a bit of respect (respect is something that comes more often in Melbourne...in Sydney you get treated like crap regardless of the situation).

Anyone who tells me that they don't want to do photocopying in their first office based job, needs to go and find another career elsewhere.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeez... i work in the recreation industry and don't go near an office and i still have to do bloody photocopying! It comes in any line of work... but think to yourself... would you rather photo copy... or have someone's life in your hands? Working in the rec industry you always have about 10 peoples lives in your hands... which i think is much harder than photocopying... be glad all you have to do at ur age is photocopying!
