If you are a teen (which you most likely are if you are on the teen boards), answer me one of the questions most asked to teenagers and younger kids:

What do you want to be when you get older?

i would like to become a P.A., or physicians assistant. once i get there, i may go on to become a doctor if i choose, or i may branch out into a different field of medicine.

oh don't if it's something you love go after it
people tell me i'm an idiot for wanting to be an actrees because the likely hood of that happening is one to a million
but i don't care what they say i'm going to fight for it if i become an actress or not i'll know i gave it everything i had
and when i become an actress i can call them idiots for not following their dreams :rotfl:

haha true true.

its not that i totally gave up for the sole reason of the unlikelihood, i just dont see myself as a big-time actor. id rather earn an honest living doing something i love even more, which is helping others :)

ive also considered a career in singing, but im a little too shy to sing in front of people. give me a stage and tell me to memorize lines and recite them in front of thousands of people and i can do it with no butterflies in my stomach at all, but tell me to sing in front of 10 people and i freak out really quick...

I want to be an actress. Or, I want to work at Disney. But there's so much that can branch off from those two choices, so lately all I've been thinking about is my job in and right out of college. I want to work at Disneyland (more likely than WDW, because I want to go to college in California) and work as one of the performers in the stage shows. Now like I said, that's good for a short while. So I'm still thinking about the rest of my life...definitely something that has to do with acting, singing, or choreography.

There are millions and millions of jobs I would love to have. I just can't seem to choose as of now.

I wouldn't mind art, or teaching, or law, or computer tech, or pilot, or postmortem medical examiner, or florist, just to name a few.

i would say just go after your dreams whatever they are
do whatever you feel comfortable with
and take risks when you want to at your own pace

I want to be a columnist or a reporter for either the Charlotte Observer, or whatever the newspaper is in Charleston, SC. Prefferably Charleston, and I could have a 3-story row house only a couple blocks from the waterfront, right in downtown. And I could own an art gallery.

To be more detailed, I would like to work as a lawyer, do a column a couple times a week for the newspaper, own an art gallery, and live in downtown Charleston. The lawyer part may not work, but it's worth a shot

I want to be an author.
I already have written many stories.
The next J. K. Rowling or C. S. Lewis would suffice.
But my mom always tell me I need to shoot for something else.
Like a nurse or teacher or something.
She says it's to hard to make a living off writing books unless you are amazing.
But it's what I really want to do.
And I'll write until the day I die unless my hands get cut off in a freak accident.

-- insert Jenny rambling --

My one big dream in life is to become a social worker for DCFS. I could tell you all why, but I think everyone's already heard it enough.
I want to permanently CHANGE the foster care system, for the better.

If for some retarted reason something happens and I CAN'T be a social worker, I have two options.

-- If I never get over my basic.."fear" of putting myself out there, and being outgoing then I'll go to college and become a nurse.

-- BUT, if I actually do get over my shy-ness, I'd LOVE to be a politician.

I just want to grow up and make a difference, no matter how cliche' that sounds.

thats not cliche at all! well maybe it is but that isnt something to be ashamed about! i think its awesome for you to want to make a difference for foster children. that is an awesome goal to set for yourself.

and the fact that your alternative career path is still going to involve helping people is even more valiant. becoming a nurse is hard work, but it pays off when you see all your patients leaving with smiles on their faces :)

I'm leaning towards being a pediactric nurse, but I would also like to be an interior designer, or a pastry chef, or a photographer, or an architect. I like creative things, but I'm not very creative myself. But I love babies and little kids, so I would love to be a pediatrician.

I am very shy and I just have this fear that I'll graduate from college and I won't be able to get a job. I'm afraid that no one will want to hire me. XD

I don't want to be a bum!!! :scared:

I've honestly always wanted to be an actress.
But I mean a REAL actress.
I want to make meaningful movie, with passion and real emotion and real storylines that have relevance in our society.
I really won't be happy with doing movies like bring it on 17, or ninja cheerleaders, or zombie puppies from hell. no stupid movies for me.

So I think what I just said is that I want to be an indie movie actor :)

And if that doesn't work outfor me...I either want to be a stay at home mom, or own a bEd & Breakfast. :goodvibes

So. I honestly do not know what I am going to do once I graduate college.

I'm a History major (concentration in American history) and a Theatre Arts minor. So I know I want to work in one of those two fields. But honestly? I have no idea.

When I was in high school, all I wanted to do was teach American History to high schoolers. but then I decided not to.

I would LOVE to work in a museum... Like the Smithsonian american history museum, or a museum in NYC. But getting into that line of work is extremely hard.

I also want to somehow combine my love of theatre and history and be a Theatre Historian. But I have no idea how to do that.

I also would love to work in Archives. Like the Disney archives or Broadway/Theatre archives would be AMAZING.

*shrugs* I still have a good two and half years before I have to worry about that...
