Professor Virohsa nodded as she took out her wand from her robes and waved it. A tea kettle and two cups immediately appeared on her desk. The tea, was known for its sweet delish and exquisite flavor as well for its ability to help people relax. She served the tea on the tea cups, and immediately started sipping hers as she listened to Ashlie's question.
"Well, dear. When I was a student at Hogwarts, I never knew what I wanted to do. And yes, I did feel the nauseating response everytime I thought about how close graduation was. I did not know back then, what I am about to tell you. If I did, I think, I would have felt better about making a decision", she nodded.
"You don't have to commit to a particular job. You can change and move around", she said right before she took two more sips. "Truthfully, I became an Auror because my father was an Auror. But, that changed after a few years. I realized slowly that my passion resided in research of dangerous plants. And that is one of the many things that I did as an Unspeakable. And even then, as you can tell, I have been slowly moving into the Teacher's role. So, as you can tell, there is no right or wrong answer", she nodded. "You are allowed to change your mind now, tomorrow, and in 12 years", she grinned.
"Given that, if you would like, we can talk about what interests you have?", she asked Ashlie. She knew very well what she was going through, since she had been on that same position back in the day. |
