I really want to go into psychiatry.

I really like to help people, and I'm excellent at reading people, analyzing their problems and giving them advice to help solve the problem. So I think that I would do quite well in a career where I work with people and trying to figure out their problems.

I'm not sure. I'm taking a 2 year program for commercial art, but would love to get into game design or science or something. I... don't think I want to do just web design and logos and crap for the rest of my life.

then you want to go into psychology, not psychiatry. Psychiatrists are MDs.

I don't know for sure what i want to do yet, i'm only eighteen i've got my whole life in front of me.

I'd really love to work in the media. I'd like to take my love of films, television, radio, music, the web etc. into a career and be able to contribute to the information age!

I don't know but all I have left is a generic film related career. Shitloads of people are in the same position as myself but I don't have anything else to do.

Taking AP Computer Science A and AB isn't helping me at all either.

A tool is a tool regardless. I mean if you suck, you suck, and not even the most perfect tool could save you. And if your damn good then even with the worst tool ever conceived you could chug out some high quality shit.

well professionally i just want a job where i'm helping somebody in some way, big or small, on a day to day basis. i'm going to do politics and philosophy at university, i'm considering doing law school after that and maybe become a public defender - that stuff is a long way off, but it's one thing i'm thinking i might do. the more i learn about this stuff though, the more depressing and frustrating it all gets so i dunno.

i'll always do my other things, like write and make music. if i ever stood to make money on those things, i would do it and probably replace whatever full time work i was doing with some kind of activism just to fill the whole leave things a little better than you found them quota.

but i think i could end up anywhere doing more or less anything at this point. i've set myself on a bit of a course with this university course but it's pretty open ended as far as where it could take me and who knows what else might pop up.

I really want to be involved in the music industry, I'm taking journalism/communications stuff so I can involved in the media side of it.
I definitely know that it is all I want to do, I'd rather wake up happy everyday than wake up and go to work every day eating shit at a job I hate for some extra bucks. I'd rather just earn a normal wage than sacrifice everything I enjoy to be wealthy, hopefully the two can come together but I'd sooner take happiness over material.

I just figured it out a couple days ago!!! so it might change, but it's unlikely because this is the first time I've felt like YES THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO

basically architecture with a pretty big focus on nature and the environment. buildings account for half of americas greenhouse gasses im not shitting you!! ok so my plans don't sound that amazing but I know exactly what I want to do with it and you dudes will just have to wait and see. it's gonna rule.

I've always wanted to do journalism, in any form really! I sorta fucked myself because I had a really bad couple of years and I was like "SCREW WRITING MAN FORGET IT ALL" so I didn't write but I'm pretty set on doing it now and fingers crossed I get into the degree I want to next year.

I just really really don't want to end up in a 9-5 doing generic office crap. As people have said I'd rather not earn heaps of money and love my work. I was going to do business but after working in an office for a couple of years I can't see myself doing that for the rest of my life without shooting myself. I'll keep doing it while I'm at uni because it's good work at my age but I'm hoping in a few years I can forget about it forever and move on to stuff I want to do.

I really want to do music stuff on the side, I doubt anything will pan out from my hip hop stuff but I love doing it and as long as people are enjoying what I do then I'll keep doing it for as long as I can (50 yr old rapper rite here). I dunno about composition either but I love doing that as well so I'll always keep doing that for indie games or whatever I can!

PTizzle, I just had a dream where I was driving in America with some people I didn't know and I heard "Gimme Premium" on the radio and some girls went kind of crazy and I was like, "What in the freak?" And I said I knew the guy who sang this song and nobody believed me. And I was wondering if I could get access to computer and go on GW to show them.
