What do YOU wanna be when YOU grow up ^_^

[smittenkitten]

I want to work in a zoo but that will never happen, so I guess it will just be an office for me.

[Casey]

successful / alive / happy with what i got.

pretty much.

[Breine]

I have no idea. I don't even know what I want to study at the university.. or if I even wanna go to the university. I whole-heartedly hope that I will have a revelation some time in the next year or so.

[cloud21zidane16]

Cushy office jobs are the best though.
Getting paid to be on msn is pure win.

I think thats where ill end up If i do end up in an office im gonna revive this thread to tell everyone how right i was

[Ouch!]

Published author. Assuming that I won't make a living off of my books, I'd also like to work as a lawyer involved in the publishing business.

[The Devil]

Rule a firey underworld, where I have million's of demonic minions bowing to my every whim. It is there I plan the end of times.

Oh wait...

[Jess]

A clinical psychologist, forensic psychologist or a social worker. Something along those lines, anyway.

[fire_of_avalon]

Rockstar.

It's a little early for you yet to really "know" what you want to be. You have along way to go. Hell, I'm 27 and I still have no idea what I want to do.

I disagree.

I think that once you hit around 20, you should have an idea of where you want to go. It doesn't have to be a permanent plan, it just has to be a plan. And the earlier, the better. Plans change, and goals evolve, and sometimes life takes you in a different direction. But you should have goals, always.

I am a student and part-time photographer right now. Once I graduate, I will become a full time wedding and portrait photographer. In 5 year's time, I want to open up my own studio space. By the time I am 30, I want to move away from portrait work and head into commercial photography work. Also around this time, I want to become a mommy.

By the time I'm 35, I want to have opened up the first of my multiple restaurants. I already have a venue in mind for my first venture. A little stand in Los Angeles' historic farmer's market would be perfect.

By the time I'm 40, I want to be an established photographer with my work having been printed in national publications. Around this time, I want to start weaning myself away from full-time photography work and do stuff more on a project to project basis. While I'm transitioning more toward part-time, I want to take care of my restaurants and try and get one or two food related franchises going.

I want to be retired and completely financially secure by the time I'm 50 so that I can take the time to travel the world.

So yeah, that's pretty much the plan! Let's see how closely I can stick to it. I'll check back in, in 30 years to tell y'all how it went.

[Aerith's Knight]

Alive, married, 2 or 3 children(or more I'll see), with a Job in engineering and just generally happy

i dont think its too much to ask

[LunarWeaver]

I don't have talent in anything and never bothered thinking about it much!~ I'll end up in an office with a low level job that's all routine boring and that's that. Ah, and to think when I was little I was going to be an astronaut-painter-cowboy-ninja.

[Freya]

I want to be a journalist. I'm already blah blah editor of things blah, news brodcaster on local tv blah. But recently I figured a way to combine my journalism and my love of gaming! I'll write for a gaming magazine or like a website. That'd be pure awesome.

Well I agree with "goals in mind", that's a definite. But I think alot of people put emphasis waaaay too early on kids about what they should be when they are older, and kind of warps them into thinking "oh crap I gotta grow up right now." type of thinking.

I have goals, to clear it up I'm just not ambitious enough to follow through with them.

[Heath]

Professional historian/history academic/history teacher type person. Failing that, I'll train as a solicitor or something. Wouldn't mind working in politics or the media though.

That sounds fantastic. Good luck with that!
