Relish

As a child growing up in the famous New York City, i am exposed to many different cultures. Some excite me, some not so much. So with this exploration i have begun to look for what kind of job i want to take on when i grow up. I have grown up in a very nuturing household where i am told i can be anything i want to be if i put my mind to it. My dilemma is theres so much to chose from, and dispite my dads constant impowering talks about how i will find the right thing, i'm very stuck. Marine Biology interests me on a level in which i like swimming and love animals. But Hospitals and Doctors have always interested me, for some unknown reason, so being a doctor interests me also. But in Relish it opened up my eyes on how your job can and will effect your children. Relish is a graphic novel in which a young artist re-tells her story of growing up as the child of an amazing chef growing up in New York. This gave her an idea of what she wants to do and where she wants to be. It was very interesting to see that the daughter of a chef, doesn't usually get a homemade meal from her mother because she has been cooking for stangers all day and doesn't think she can hold a pan anymore. This book has raised an idea of how my job effects those around more than "you can be wantever you want" ever has.
