Should I take classes that I enjoy or ones that will help me in the future?

At my school, we can take special classes out of the school, like nursing prep, horticulture, culinary, etc. that I'm interested in. I'm torn between multiple though, Culinary, Horticulture, Agriculture, and Educational Careers. Would it be smarter to take the class that will be more beneficial to me in the future, or should I take one that I enjoy that will make my high school more enjoyable? As of now, I think I want to be a teacher and horse trainer/riding instructor, so educational careers or agriculture would probably be the most beneficial, but I also love plants and cooking, so those would probably make my days better and more enjoyable. This also goes for classes in the school. For example, math. I don't think I'd be a math teacher if I do become a teacher, but I'm pretty good at math and am in the fast-pace math. I'll probably stay in it, but I doubt I'd need much of the more high-level math in my future, so should I take it easy and take the slower one or challenge myself and take the fast-pace one?

What should I do to study plants in college if it isn't a main career goal/path?

I love gardening and plants and love learning about them. I took a small horticulture class through 4-H last year, which I really enjoyed. But, I don't plan on doing stuff with plants as a full-time career, I'd like to do it more as a hobby. So, I was wondering what I should do for high school and college. I'm planing on majoring in Equine Studies or some other horse class and becoming a horse trainer and riding instructor. Would it be smart to minor in a plant class? What would be a good plant-related minor? Or would it be possible to just take a few classes about plants, not an entire minor, but still taking them? Or should I just not take any classes like that and learn more from experience? My high school also has special classes that you can take in 11th and 12th grade. The two that I'm interested in are Agriculture and Horticulture. I was thinking agriculture might be better for my horse-related future, but horticulture might be a fun and interesting class to take for gardening (and getting lots of free plants). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

What is it like be a pesticide handler?

I know that this is kind of a broad question, but I am just curious to see what pesticide handlers do on a daily basis. I am pretty interested in handling the chemicals and working with the sprayers/applicators and being able to set up the chemicals and everything by myself. I recently got a job with an aerial spraying crew and I am very interested in everything, I just don't know if it will be something that I would want to continue a career with. #pesticides #landscaping #agriculture #farming

I am a 12th grader looking to choose her career path, but I am stuck between two very different routes; agricultural/animal sciences, or art? How should I go about making this big decision?

Throughout high school, I've been interested in both science and art for a potential career path. I've been able to narrow my search to animal/agricultural sciences, or game design/animation. Is there any way to combine these interests into a future path? If not, what would be a smarter overall choice to pursue in college? #career-paths #art #college-choice #science #animator #agriculture
