Oh god...i have no ambition!

[Mtank]

Adults would always stare at me when as a kid i would be asked "so...what do you want to be when you grow up?", and i would say "i dont know."

but nothings changed. i still dont know.

lawyer? doctor? (out of the question, now.) architect?

meh, and those are just conventional, well known, stereotyped jobs.
for a while, Gfxdesigner/ animator sounded good, and interesting. Now ive lost that enthusiasm as well. Even though i work a lot with PS and ive started teaching myself basic 3dsm, and hopic to learn more through a course next summer.

i dunno...so i guess i can ask the members who have not yet got a job. what do YOU want to do?

[TheBB]

I like to keep my amitions low... not to look too far ahead. There's a quote by Douglas Adams which I think nicely describes how we will all feel in some years:

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I'll just go where I end up, basically, with some minor adjustments by me to make sure where I end up isn't the gutter. :)

[EdvardMunch]

What I really want to do is write screenplays, but I've been brainwashed into thinking that breaking into Hollywood is unpossible, so I'll instead settle for doing research in psychology (which is pretty interesting) by day, and writing by night.

[Carnage]

Pharmacist. Worst comes to worst, I can get high pretty quickly on my own shit. ;P

[raybAn]

Master Degree Torturist in Military Service (hireable as contradictor} and Pleasure Henchman (Gigolo} in SnM! OF COURSE, DUH! What`d you think?!? Rule the world!? WAH!

[GrassDragon]

I have no clue what I want to do. Most likely something math or science related (engineering?) because that's what I'm good at. But I have the rest of highschool and at least the first year or two of college to decide, so I'm not too worried ;)

[gediminas]

Stupid people confuse me. Bastards.

"You would make a great actor..."
"You have amazing abilities at learning foreign languages, go for it!"
"Journalism is what you need, trust me."
"You have a great taste for videogames... Russian game market is developing fast, you know..."
"You would make a great lawyer, son."
"Screenplay. Period."
"Have you ever tried hosting a local radio/TV show?"
"I'd recommend practicing your web-design skill, lad."
"Wanna sing in my band?"

...etc, etc, ect, no bullshit.

But I'm soo lazy... Crap, could someone help me out? God?

[Night_Hunter]

Hmmmm, an interesting topic. I've always been good at writing, and wouldn't mind going into journalism. I think it would be pretty fun to write everyday. But then again, I've always wanted to be on TV, so maybe I'll be a TV ancorman. That'd be pretty coo'.

Go for video games. :)

[Markpyro]

Ive always had a somewhat creative side....

Ive considered these jobs:
Video Game Graphics Designer ;)
Cartoonist
Teacher
Author

[Fenguin]

Nanotechnology research. The science of the future. :)

[Eros]

Writer or an English teacher. Acting has also started appealing to me greatly as of late. So that's something else I can keep in mind.

Yo tengo quince años.

[BSTRhino]

At the moment, I am working as a software developer for the summer. I have decided that this is not exactly what I want to do. I pretty much sit in my office for most of the day, talking to people every now and again. But there's not enough people involved, so I'm not quite happy. Perhaps it's because I'm doing the wrong project, I don't know.

What I want to do is become a project manager of some kind.

[Dark_Soul74]

I'd probably want to be:
Engineer Artist Programmer Musician Technological Developer Actor Politician(The good kind!) Lawyer(Also the good kind!)

[raybAn]

There has been an opening as leader of the PLO in the latest days. Pays good, too! With pension coverage, comes with a big palace, own lifeguard and some land. Apply at the Palestinia Work Office within 90 days for election if interested!

[Spartan-II]

I want to be in R&D for the military.

[ZombieKing]

Well, Iam currently employed as a web page designer and i also do freelance Corporate logo design and such....not quite sure how I got here, just got lucky I guess, I also go to university....less that a year until I get my BA in English.

[Valjean]

I'm thinking of jobs like being a politican or an engineer. I'm also thinking of jobs like a video game concept artist or a video game tester. :)

Nanotechnology research. The science of the future. :)
Fusion-Fision Reactor and Ionic Hover System will shadow you. :P

[JenJen]

For a long time i wanted to be an art teacher but then i decided i wasnt good enough. the job i actually wanted was a high school band director but no one was supportive so now i shall be a chemical engineer. i have no idea if i'll enjoy it. oh well nothing else sounds better.

[AJ]

meh..

[Wick3d]

its kind of odd, but i eitehr want to be a stand up comic or a teacher

[Grom_Icecream]

President of the world.

Failing that....Geneticist. Im already half there.

[Mtank]

meh..


??

anything to say, AJ? :confused:

[Graeme]

Nanotechnology research. The science of the future. :)

Oooh ooh Fenguin you sexy manbeast! I want to do nanotech too! ^_^

Still haven't read Nanosystems though X_x. I really need to head down to Chapters (giant bookstore in Canada) sometime soon.

[TheBB]

Oooh ooh Fenguin you sexy manbeast!

Well, to each his own ambitions....

[raybAn]

I wanna be a secret agent working for both the U.S.A. and the Al Quiada in a risky game of double crossing, where both parts must not know that I side with the other part.... (The `enemy`!) Muhuhuhuhuhahahah!

[Neo]

Hmm.. I prolly want to do something with computers, must likely Tech Support in a big company (Technician or w/e) or do what ive been doing -- 'freelance' web page design and maintainence :)

Dont forget gamer! Just cuase you dont get paid doesnt mean its not a career ;)

-Neo

[King_Templar]

Well, I'd like to either make video games (or get into software development of some kind) or make webpages. Those are what interest me...kinda leaning towards webpage design at the moment...

[peace_machine]

who needs ambition anyways?

Chances are i will be stuck as a checkout chick for a while. What I want to do is come up with an instant cure for chicken pox because it is really starting to piss me off now!

[raybAn]

The answer for you seems of course to be healthcare. Perhaps an homeopath? Nurse? Doctor Zoidberg? Surgeon? Crazy Genetic Scientist trying to mutate your body to withstand chicken pox? Wah!? Make a cure and sell them for overprize, and earn billions.. Yesh! Who needs ambitions, when you can have money!?

[TranquilNightElf]

BB I like how you worded your reply. ^_^

Nanotech and Genetics have always been a couple of my fav fields .
I'd also like to get into games development /Games testing
Graphic Designing is good too
Btw how do you all feel about Theoretical Physics/AstroPhysics/Cosmology/Quantum Physics ?

Oh... and to quote Baz Luhrmann
Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your
life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they
wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year
olds I know still don’t.

Why not combine all fields? A game avout Nanotech research and geneticly modified soldiers playing with sub-physics? No wait its been done before, damn Microsoft.

How about manipulating the genetic structure so nanotech games play people? No wait its been done before, in Russia game plays you.

Lets just wait untill we are 40 and we have nanotech genetic enhancers to help us with ambitions.
