When I grow up, I want to be a....

[AshlieElizabeth]

I want to be a film director/writer/producer just like my idol Tim Burton.

Just got to survive college, then university, then its off to the california institute of the arts to gain specialist degrees.

and hopefully I'll get noticed and be able to work with my idol.

failing that, I'll get a job in McDonalds.

failing that I'll jump off Blackpool tower

Well at the moment i'm studying to be a fitness instructor. But i have always been interested in joining the federal police, and thats something i'm still considering.

 

[A Weary Exile]

Game designer/creative director, I'm even going to school for it and everything. I realize that it is highly unlikely that I'll get hired by a big game company, and even more unlikely that I'll ever get into a managerial position, but even if I have to work at a grunt-level job for the rest of my life I'll be satisfied.

To be able to have fun playing music and not live in poverty would be great

 

[SwimmingRock]

Rich slacker. Got the slacker part down. Now I just need to sort out the "?????" and wait for the inevitable profit.

 

[Lost In The Void]

Well What I'm working on right now are the prerequisites to get a B of Law. Long ass time to get there though

What I wanted to be by age:
A train driver! (age 3 - 7)
An architect! (age 7 - 16)
A movie screenwriter and director! (age 16 - 20)
Anything that interests me and pays well... (age 20 - now)

Such is the cruel reality of life...

When I grow up
I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star
I wanna be in movies

When I grow up
I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars
I wanna have big boobies

Well, except the boobies part.

 

[Blackdoom]

I am going to do science how ever I am yet to figure out which area I am going to work in.

 

[giga524]

What do they do in Grandma's Boy again? OH that's right, they sell pot

jk jk BUT I would <3 to work at something like Brainasium.

Why I think taht would be an awesome job.

OT:Be an asshole, wait I already am. Continue the campaign until it kills me.

 

[teutonicman]

A couple I remember are; a lego set designer (still want that job), video game tester, prototype car tester, and lovable despot of some small tropical island.

 

[Sparrow]

I wanted to be a vet when I was younger. But when I was 14 and my dog nearly choked to death, I realised that being a vet probally wasn't my thing when I ran around my house in confusion instead of doing the rational thing and removing his freaking collar.

(The dog was fine. Turns out he had a cold. I really could not make this shit up if I tried.)

 

[Liam1390]

I'd like to be a pastry chef. Up until a couple years ago, I wanted to be a cook, but I discovered I liked baking a lot more, and I knew more about it.

 

[x0ny]

I remember I wanted to be a fireman when I was a kid. Now I'm a chef.

 

[Loop Stricken]

I'm 24 and I wish I knew.

 

[Tattaglia]

Space fireman. Who the hell do you think is gonna put out them fires up in space?

Me. That's who.

 

[Tasachan]

As a kid:
Marine Biologist!

As a teenager:
Set design/costume design/graphic design!

Now:
Well, I'm in school for criminology... I'll probably end up with a desk job somewhere. Haha.
I'd love to do graphic design still, but it isn't a steady job. =|

Indeed. Life blows.

 

[Snowalker]

Astronaut. Seriously, in college I plan to major in physics or aerospace, then go into the air-force and get them to help me pay for a masters degree, then start trying to contact NASA. Oh, it won't be easy I know, and I really should have been born in Ohio, but still.

 

[Arkhangelsk]

Well, I want to be in a successful metal band, but the odds of that working out are next to nil, so I'll aim for a job in the IT business. I hear there is lots of cash to be made there. But I'll still start a metal band. Just on my free time.

And for some reason, my family believes that I have talent when it comes to music. I am dedicated, but I don't think I'm cut out to be a big star in the area. I've played guitar for 2½ years, and I've surpassed my brother who's played for 7 years by miles (mind you, he wasn't as dedicated, but still). I've played violin for half a year, I've only practiced half an hour a week (on lessons, I can't play at home) and my teacher still thinks I'm doing great progress (he doesn't know that I don't practice). And next year I'm going to learn to sing, and then growl.

The only area I fail at is creating music. Granted, I'm only 15 years old, but still, I'm busting my ass trying to be creative. And all I got is one half decent song, and a bunch of weird lyrics.
