    What's your job? What's your ambition?

    Currently, I'm a GCSE student, aspiring to become either a barrister, a lecturer, a teacher, a physicist (at CERN, naturally) or an interpreter.

    I fear there is already a thread like this.

    I think I made a thread somewhat similar to this way back when, I can't even remember the name of it, but it had something to do with what your career was going to be.

    Lol me too XD

    Anyways I want to be a rescue medic.

    I like being in the outdoors and I like to help people.
    So yeah at first I wanted to be a chopper pilot for the military, but then my eyesight went and crushed those dreams so I went to the next best thing.

    I'm hoping to become a mailman soon, I've got my job interview in a week. This job is awesome because:
    - I'll get payed for doing something I love; riding my bicycle.
    - I doesn't involve too much or intesive social interaction.
    - I'll be able to afford guitarlessons.
    - I'll be like Derpy.

    As for the future, I recently began considering to follow a writing or art education after highschool. Or maybe something that involves nature perservation. I've still got two years to make up my mind...

    I have no idea what I want to be. Probably something related to Physics/computers.

    I work in a welding/fabrication shop as of now. I don't have any ambitions for a career as I *still* don't know what I want to do with my life.

    But I'm putting in applications to be a train conductor, so at the very least I'll have a better job than the one I have now.

    I just got accepted into classes of theology at the univerity in Uppsala.

    My ambition is to become a prophet and gather many people beneath my banner. I want to be a force of social change and bring equal rights and love and tolerance to all. I am tired of bigotry within religion and I am going to challenge these notions and bring christianity to a new age of tolerance and enlightenment. This is my ambition, pretty arrogant isn't it?

    I don't have any goals for my career, well apart from it needing to relate to art/design, I don't think I even want to have a career.

    I just think it's a bit pointless setting these 'dream' careers for ourselves. Say you don't achieve the career you had always hoped for and spent years working towards, well what then, do you consider yourself a failure and settle for something less? Or say you do get there, then what, do you just stay there until you working days are over?

    Personally, I quite like the idea of not being tied down to some 'dream job' (that's probably not what you expect it to be anyway) and having the freedom to work in all kinds of areas. I can't think of anything worse than doing the same thing for 10, 20, 30 years day in day out, to be in the same job for that long, that is what I would call a failed career. 10 years into the future the world is going to be a very different place, I would hope that what I do in life changes along with it.

    I want to make things. Whether it's games, replica props, TV shows or films, I want to be able to do something fun and creative and have something to show for it at the end. I'm leaning more towards film and TV, but I'd love to get into art and animation more as well. Still not entirely sure what I want to do at uni though... Maybe Media Production, since it's a mixture of everything.

    I am currently going to college for an Associates of Science and Arts in Sound Production and Management, I know that's a mouthful trust me I hate saying the whole thing for all the legal stuff they make you do in college. But I finish my major degree out in a couple of years I am going to go back to school for a major in Business and Management, hopefully with a little luck and a lot of work I will someday own my own venue where I can showcase local and national talent for the masses ears to feast upon!
