[dramasnot6]

Are you a proffesional Toni? wow, and at your age! *impressed nodding*
I'm a student but i used to babysit and do pro acting

[toni]

Im eyeing a more bountiful job next summer (April) by doing what I think will be my future carrer-theatre.

Pensy, sdr4jc, let's start a thread about different school systems in the general teaching section???? ours is very different, too. would be interesting to see how it works in different countries

Theater! How lovely! I loved proffesional theater...you meet the most interesting people. I have gotten such rich experiences out of it, a few really wonderful, a few terrible, and many just educational. I hope you break a million legs! Assuming youre the type of Alien to have a million? I'm sure you will do great though, what auditions are you looking into?

[toni]

I only have a pair of legs, thank goodness, I sort of left a few hundred legs in my spaceship...

Wat auditions am I looing into? Well, there's "Merily We Roll Along" and "The Sound of Music" but I dont wanna do musical theatre. The bathroom couldn't even stand my singing! What I wanna do are the Shakespearean plays..I wanna be a Shakespearean actress. I could hardly wait for summer!

[dramasnot6]

Wow....i think that last post of yours made me feel more soul-matish then ever Toni!! becoming a shakespearian actress was my dream for almost 6 years! its turned to psychology very recently, but it is still my very favorite passion. Well, everything Shakespeare in general is my favorite passion. I have a life size poster of him on my bedroom door! How scary is that?

[toni]

oh, gosh, could it be possible that we are soulmates? everyday, I am feeling more and more certain... Did you mention psychology? Did you know that I greatly enjoy my mum's psychology books? Lain would prove it. She laughs at my reading of " The Complexities of Marriages Human Realationships "

If Shakespeare were alive today, I would marry him. *kidding?*

I am Enginner. I earn for my faimly.

I have just finished The Zahir" by Paulo Cohelo. If anyone have read it please PM me I want to discuss something special.

[toni]

Hello, santiago-gemini! Welcome! Starting a thread about "The Zahir" would be a better idea so a lot of people could see it and discuss it with you.Good Luck!

I'm a supervisor of five bookshops in Dublin Airport, but i originally spent two years working as an Archaeologist in my home country. I loved it.

Toni i was lucky in college to get to do Theatre studies amongst all of the heritage classes. I got to Play Iago in a few scenes and it felt wonderful!

Pensive maybe your educational system is a bit like mine, as opossed to having kindergarden, junior school, junior high and high school we only have primary and secondary school.

Oh goodness I love you!!!! I am kidding...but that is awesome that you spent time as an archaeologist...I am currently going to college for anthropology and looking into field schools to see if I like archaeology. Even if the field work is not my thing though, I will be doing osteology or something along those lines. Maybe you could let me know what you enjoyed and what not?

Other than studying to be an anthropologist, I currently work for a mechanical engineering company as an editor/secretary. It pays okay and it gives me the time I need for school.

[Shannanigan]

I am a tutor at my university's Writing Center during the school year, and during the summer I am a server at a local restaurant...I also sometimes do side jobs and work cash registers for friends with private businesses

I'm a junior in college living off of scholarship money After this I plan to teach public secondary school.

I think so. It goes like this:

Primary School
Secondary School
College
Finally University

Hey, and being an archaeologist and a supervisor of five shops must be fun!

I absolutely loved the excavation work. It was tough work sometimes especially if you have to excavate ditchs, and i dug a fair few of those! I also loved doing the planning and recording of the sites, i love maps so was always happy to plan and map out the sites, or part of. Theres more fun in the feild work than anything else, although if some one had offered me a job in site and monuments records office i'd be happen.

What i didn't like about Archaeology was that its all contract work and if a company dont have a new site for you after you finish one and you cant get on with another company you can be unemployed for a while. that happened to me three times in one year, hence why i now work for a bookshop. i needed money and had only taken it up temperarily. still there though, almost two years later!

'I think so. It goes like this:

yeah thats more or less te same as here except college and University are basiclly the same. i.e. you can go to university college Dublin. we call it third level education and it also consists of institues of technology.
