If you're easily stressed, you don't want to work at a video game company. The amount of stress that is pushed on you, especially when nearing a deadline, would be enormous.sheogoraththemad said:
Of course, I want to start my own game design company too, but that's on hold until I can start actually working. I suffer from laziness, insomnia, a short attention span, insane completionism/competitiveness, and generally need to work harder.
Just out of interest, where are you hoping to study? And good luck, by the wayMissPixxie said:
.As for me, I'm waiting for the dates of my resits for the last set of exams I did. Second year of university, up in Leeds, and I need to do two resits to get into my final year (since I was just a few marks short of the pass mark for each one). Trouble is, the resits are all in late August and half of the dates clash with a family holiday we have booked, so I need to wait until the exam timetable is posted online next week to see if we'll have to get someone else to fill my space on the holiday or if I can still do it and do the exams too.
Oh, and I'm waiting for a plasterer to turn up (should have been here at eight, it's now almost ten in the morning and he's still not here). If he doesn't arrive soon, my dad is going to be pretty pissed off (especially as my dad's at work right now and happens to employ the plasterer anyway - he's a contracts manager for a building firm...).
I'm currently waiting till the new college year starts. After that I want to study history and archeology and join the military.
I'm still young and I don't have much responsibilities, when I get one I usually get a little obsessed with it and everything must be perfect. plus I think it will get better with the yearsKapol said:
I want to go to America for studies.
It's an alternative route into a veterinary science degree at Liverpool, a pre vet year. It does mean I have to study 6 years instead of 5, but that's a price to pay for a dream worth realising. I'm very nervous!Trivun said:Just out of interest, where are you hoping to study? And good luck, by the way
Still no post yet, maybe it's safe to move and eat some breakfast...
I want my undergrad adviser to drop that C I got in Stat Mech so that I can graduate with honours in Dec rather than May.
I want this round of experiments to go well so that I won't get torn apart at the group meeting on Monday. Also, I need some data for the conference in late August.
I want to lose some fat. But first, I want this annoying stomach problem to go away.
I also want a girlfriend who's not as big of a cheating ***** as the last one. Actually, I want a girlfriend who's not a cheating ***** at all.

It's not plastic surgery. =P It's just not covered by insurance. =( Money-grubbing haters.sheogoraththemad said:
What do I want? Fucked if I know. The closest answer I can give you to that question is, well, happiness.
Oddly enough, my goals are counter-productive to getting what I want; they're more focused on my proving to the world (or at least myself) that I am worthy and/or deserving of attention and adoration. But if successful it will probably lead to my being isolated and unhappy. That's why I'm putting off my goals; they won't give me what I'm shooting for. Weird how this works out.
But I have to do something. I am currently very unhappy and I want to remedy that. I fill my life with entertainment and fun but I am missing something integral, something *key* to the happiness I seek. I have no idea how to attain this.

You know, this is why I love the Escapist Forums. I have yet to find anywhere else where I can write something like this down without some kind of journal.

I want many things, but what am I waiting for? Oh who knows. I don't think there is any one thing that would make me happy at the moment. What I would really love to do is fast forward 2 years. Then I could be doing what I want instead of waiting to get off the ground...
I don't want anything. Too much effort for anything good in life and in the end it wouldn't be worth it for me. That is my dilemma.
Im currently waiting for my GCSE results, ive got high hopes and i am expected to et all A*. Im not sure i can do just that but i want A's across the board. Nervous.MissPixxie said:
I've really never cared much, there really aren't any means of permanent defeat for a human, you fail at something, boo-hoo, sucks. You get financially crippled, crap, go off to friends or family. You get debt with no means to pay, bigger crap, go become a hermit in a large forest, maybe down south for protection.
