Guidance Counselors’ Advice To Writers
FUTURE MODEL: You have great bone structure. You should consider a career in broadcasting.
FUTURE WRITER: Looks aren’t everything.
FUTURE SURGEON: You have a 5.0 GPA and you’ve already taken enough Advanced Placement courses to basically skip college. I assume you’re going into medicine.
FUTURE WRITER: Your handwriting is very neat. You should take an online calligraphy course. People will always need wedding invitations.
FUTURE FIGHTER PILOT: The school nurse said you have a resting heart rate of 50 beats per minute and 20/20 vision. The Navy is an excellent choice.
FUTURE WRITER: I’ve never seen glasses that thick. Maybe Lasik?
FUTURE ENTREPENEUR: Well, if it isn’t Mr. Popularity. Remember me when you’re on Shark Tank.
FUTURE WRITER: You should really try to make more friends. I know there’s a job where you sit alone in a tower in the woods and look for fires. I don’t even know what that’s called — fire watcher? You could do that.
FUTURE LAWYER: You’ll have so many career options once you have your degree. That’s a great choice.
FUTURE WRITER: The world will always need English teachers.
