Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I honestly don't think that i would like to be one because first of all it doesn't really catch my attention and second of all I don't like drawing. I am really bad at drawing so why am I going to choose a career that I could be really bad at. I would much rather do something that I'm going to be really interested in like being a pediatrician. Being a medical illustrator sounds like a really good job and it may be fun for a lot of people but I think it's way better for the people who are passionate in this area. I don't think that just anyone can do this career.
