Unless you intend to do writing full-time, you've probably got some sort of career idea (or if you're older, career). So what are you thinking of doing when you're older?

I am 95% sure of what I want to go to college for: Fisheries and Wildlife. Being a field biologist would be SWEET.

I'd like to be a book translator. That way I could combine my two loves: literature and languages! Other options would be a journalist, or a psycho-therapist.

I've got plenty of choices. Kidding. But I have plenty of I-want-to-be-careers. xD

I want to be an English actress. A director. An author. A screenplay writer. A journalist. An artist.

I just don't know which yet. xD
May all your dreams come true.. (even the ones they laughed at).

I would like to be a middle school teacher. It keeps me in the arena of English and I never have to work on weekends. Well maybe grading papers, but I find that oddly fun.

I've been really debating lately; either a writer or something in that field, or a veterinarian.
There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people:
psychopaths and mystery writers.

I'm the kind that pays better.

It took me two years to figure out what direction I am heading in, and sadly, plans might change. At this moment, I am working towards my diploma for medical transcription. Working in the healthcare state, I know there will be jobs available when I graduate.

I'm not sure.

My "wanna-be" list:

- History Professor
- Author
- Librarian
- Film Director
- Wicked Awesome
- Hermit

As a little kid, I wanted to be an archeologist so badly.
I am reminded of the babe by you.

Novelist, filmmaker, musician, poet, philosopher, actor. In that order.

I definitely want to do something with Equestrian Studies. I'm not sure what, exactly - I know I don't have the patience to train young horses, and, since I hate kids, riding instructor is out - but that's the direction I want to go in. Maybe something with stable management.

I want to be in publishing, be a writer, work for a magazine (like national geographic, not Seventeen), be a photographer (if I ever take some time to hone my camera skills), make a million on something and be a "professional sightseer", and at some point I want to be a mom.

Along with a lot of other ambitions. Life is too short to only do one thing.

I want to be everything but apparently it doesn't work like that. So either a Cop or Columnist or Journalist or Full time Author. :)

It's a three way tie with:
Federal Agent/Police. (most likely)
Concert Pianist. (likely)
DJ. (least likely)

I'm not exactly sure what I want to be. I know Novelist is on the top of my list.

I know that I'll definitely end up in the art world. Whether that means drawing/painting, photography, filming, novel writing (top choice), journalism, acting, dramaturgy, etc. I do not know...

Ditto. But I'm slightly worried about the pay. Whatever the case, going into teaching I'd love to do.
