I originally put this on 404 and now I'm reviving it.

Career I think I'll do: Freelance journalist, eventual novelist but making most of my money off of writing and advertising for agencies.

Career(s) I want: Singer in a rock band, owner of a music studio and label/PR firm, modeling photographer, fantasy/sci-fi novelist, owner of a local venue/arcade that can put on shows and stay open late for college kids, etc. I want to do multiple things because I know I'd be bored with one career.
Krystal
I have no idea about either.
18 With a Bullet
Owner of a music store.


Dunno what I probably will do.
Chrono
I'd really love to be a guitarist. I don't have to be a rock star, hell, I don't care. I just want to be part of a band, I want the whole touring experience, you know?

I'll probably end up being a teacher somewhere here in Iowa.
Mormegil
I'm pretty good with this computer stuff, and it can be fun but I don't really think it's in my heart. I used to have a bunch of wild dreams and ideas for things I'd love to do, but I feel pretty detached from all of that these days. I wouldn't know what to tell you, to be honest.
Joff
I would love to own my own bar/music store/recording studio.

In reality thought I will probably end up just working in construction for the rest of my life sad.gif

What ever happened with the whole ship deal?

The three years of getting paid sweet fuck all kinda put me off it.
Mormegil
Yeah, that'd definitely do it. It sounded pretty cool, but a man's gotta get paid.

I'd like to work on an MMO, but I'll probably end up being a lawyer.

Already is.

I'm a college student at the moment, and I'm likely to go into some brand of research or academia in computer or cognitive science.

I would like to play jazz. mellow.gif
Landak
Career I want: Research scientist who made great contributions to humanity, followed by a brief stint in international politics, before resigning due to realising that you cannot make a difference.

Career I think I'll have: Disillusioned research scientist who sticks solely to the realms of esoteric mathematics, chaos, and fluid dynamics who dies always wanting to discover so much more. Either that, or professional chef...

Jack shit, I'm just going to go to college as long as possible to prolong real life.

Want to do: musician

Think I'll do: musician

Not in, like, a rock band, but a classically trained vocalist.

Pretty sure I'll be poor a lot, but I can deal with it.

ZeroX
Want and Will do: Federal law enforcement

Anomaly
No idea. I'll probably end up doing some diplomatic stuff or at least some translation, but I can always fall back on teaching German if none of that works out. Things are still looking pretty open right now.

This topic makes me feel special as hell. I'd like to become a teacher, and that's what I'm making strides towards becoming. But I guess my career path is a bit easier than others to attain.
Zombie N-Word
Career I want: I'd love to be a writer. Comics, books, newspapers, magazines, whatever.

Career I'll probably do: Teacher.
Humble Bukakke

Dagger Jane
Career(s) I want: Writing/editing for a Newspaper or big publishing company.
