What career are you guys aiming for? I am very curious....I've wanted to be a Forensic Scientist since I was 12, and am currently taking every science class I can get my hands on. When I was younger, I wanted to be in SWAT...seriously.

I don't know what I want to do with my life.

Maybe open a bed and breakfast.

Maybe be a photographer.

Maybe be an entrepreneur.

Maybe an architect.

*shrugs*

This is very sad on my part because I'm going into college this fall.

What I want to do is write, or edit, or do one as a job and the other on the side... in reality (aka what I can probably get into) would be (or not...), eh... *thinks* some sort of englsih field, or even a scienfitic one, sports agent/scout/anything to do with the giants would be so much fun (as long as it's baseball Very Happy), music of some kind, from freelance to director.. what can one do with language other than interperter? eh.. yes, the list is long, and luckily i still have some time to narrow this down.

I'm looking into Psycho-analasys- yanno, those guys that chew on pencils and doodle on a notepad while some pathetic sap complains about her husbands tropical fish. "not all tropical fish, harry's tropical fish!' yadda yadda yadda "road signs, he reads every single road sign. Slippery when wet dolly! Deer crossing Dolly! ACF meeting at noon Dolly! where is it dolly!' WHO GIVES A GOOD GOD DAMN?!" blah blah blah. I'm also a religion major... dont know what i'll do with it.


PS:
yeeeeeeaaahhh thats only funny to those of us with an extensive monologue referance desk in our heads... or someone who saw it preformed not to long ago.

Well...I've wanted to be a pediatrician since I was about nine years old. I love kids and I hate seeing people in pain...besides, pediatricians are becoming scarce nowadays due to the intense malpractice insurance. So yeah. But I really love writing...so maybe I'll do that in college, perhaps doubleminor in writing and music, since I love to sing too.
I'm pretty much interested in everything XD

I have 3 careers I want to suceed in but have no chance of hell in actually suceeding lol
I want to be a writer but it's so hard to get a publisher to look at your work unless you've already being published
I used to want to go into acting and I still do but my fear of people is telling me that's never going to work out
I really like designing fashion but my crappy drawing abilities are stopping me from getting there too lol

Okay, I really would love to be a writer, but it's not exactly a practical profession. So I'm planning to minor in creative writing and major in something that'll pay the bills so I can try and get published. Probably a history or English professor at a good college or university. Oh, and I want to be a mom. Very Happy

I'm not really sure...

I'd absolutely love to be an Author or any sort of writing career, like Journalism. Probably Magazine Journalism, as I've done work experience with them and they did nothing whatsoever.

Otherwise, my family has a strong military tradition and I've considered the Army, but I doubt that will go anywhere.

I also love history. I'm hoping to go to University and study history, but I have no idea where it will end up. We'll have to see.

A perfect job for me would include history and writing.

I always wanted to be an author or an austronaut. Don't thinks either of those aims will be achieved (well my lack of science choices at a level means that's out :p).

Going to uni to do Archaeology and Anthropology. Probs would like to end up working in the media some how, perhaps television journalism in the form of documentaries (about people and current affairs). I also though working in international relations and the foreign office might be fun.

Well I did want to be a pediatrition but I'm not smart enough in math to be one so now I want to do something with writing. Maybe write articals in magazines or something.
