    One of three things -

    Journalist/Writer (most likely) - Investigative journalist, or eccentric creative-non fiction journalist a la H.S. Thompson or Tom Wolfe.

    Artist/comic artist - Always wanted to do this for a living since I was really little. I'd love to get an artist gig.

    Musician - Probably won't happen, but it'd be cool to play bass in a rockin' band.

I would like to have a job & on the side make clothing and jewelry & when summertime rolls around go to all he festivals and sell them. Does that mean I'de have to be a teacher to get summers off? lol I guess just do what they say.. "Go with the flow"

    I'd like to become a primary school teacher...But I can't really teach so I don't see how that would work...

    I like writing...and performing arts...maybe get into play writing...

    Or be a busker who earns no money and straves to death...

    Lol, to be completely honest, I haven't got a clue what I want to do...

    I really don't know what I want to do with my life.
    Maybe I'll play the drums in some weird rock band and live from the music.
    But, you know, I'm fourteen years old. I have a head full of dreams, but seriously I have no idea what I want. I love so many things.
    Everyone says that I'm a good writer so maybe I can do that. And I love writing so thats good. But, one thing I know for sure. After highschool I want to take a year or two off. I don' t know if I want to go to university. But when I take a year off I would love to go away with my backpack, just leave everything that I know. Yeah, that would be nice.
    And I want to find true love.:&

    I will get a degree in anthropology and development studies and someday I'll hopefully be working for some kind of developmental organisation - or something - in the developing countries. And I'll be writing as well.

    "What do I want to be when I grow up...or get older?" Well some family members tell me that I've been a hippy long enough and I need to grow up now.

    I have thought about being a traveling nurse's assistant, 4-6 months in different
    states around country, would have liked to have been a mid-wife at one time. Closest I got to those was being a CNA in AZ for a few years.

    It would be neat to write a book series for young teens or pre-teens about some type of hippy family as the main characters. I also want to open up my hometowns small library again.....it was closed down sometime while I was living in AZ.

    It would also be really cool to work for Greenpeace, Northwest Youth Corps, or at the Grand Canyon or some other place outdoors. But not sure if I could physically handle that daydream anymore.

    If I could figure out some really good job/business that I could do at home so I could make my own hours that would be super. But seeing as I don't have my own space right now or any money/or knowledge to start any type of business that is also a daydream..

    Above all I see myself as an educator, a mother, and definitly a lover!
    I hope to develope the intellect of young children to their fullest potential. Education is the key to humanity!

    But in addition I hope along the way the future also holds many adventures and journeys for me. More concerts, pot smoking circles, road trips, and fun times with fun people. I see myself helping others as well as others helping me to further my understanding of the world around me!

    I would like to simply work whatever high school type job i have after senior year, and maybe take some classes on the side, things like culinary arts and such, maybe something to improve my art. (a real art class, unlike all these other "art" classes ive tried to take) When I am old enough i want to take some bartending classes, if nothing else, just for personal fulfillment!! :p I dont know if i will be able to combine any of these acquired talents into anything profitable, but i am hopeful. If i cant, i guess i will just have to save money and take some sort of boring office-business classes or something.:eek:

    Something in sciences, like Biology (I could end up being a veterinarian..) or Physics. I've always loved History and religion (not practicing, STUDYING) more than ANYTHING, but I couldn't make a career out of it. :(

    I wanna make a difference. A big difference. I want to make a change for the better. I'm not sure how I'm going to do it, but I know I'm gunna try. I'm moving to Chicago soon, so maybe there it'll be easier to get involved with something. My ideals are so important to me, and the world is such a mess, I can't just let it go and do nothing about it.
