Short, sweet, and straight to the point. After looking at the college acceptance thread and going back thinking when I first applied college, I figure I want to ask and know what everyone here in TL want to do with your life.
It can be what you want to study/major (for new potential college students), career (for current college students), dream, or even life. Tell me and enlighten me, what you wanna do?
Me:
Studying Broadcast Journalism, wanna have a career in the world of media, be a mix of Edward R Murrow and Stephen Colbert (lol), but hope to get a job at a TV studio to become big. You?

I have about a semester of college to go and I'll be done with my B.A. of Biological Science. I can see myself working in it, but I can also see myself working in absolutely any job. So I don't know if I'll be looking for a job or in the field I studied or a regular one. I'll probably go with which ever pays the most and which ever I find the quickest I don't care if it is "hard work" as long as it keeps me busy and am active doing something at all times.

I don't know what I want to do for a living, but I know for sure that one of my goals in life is to have as complete an understanding of physics as I can get. Ultimately, I hope to understand the search for the theory of everything, and understand all the math behind it if it is found within my lifetime. To get the PhD is the tangible goal, but I don't know what kind of job/lifestyle that would come with after graduation. I'm very conscious about getting into a career I will like, so until I know what that would make me happy, I need to keep flexibility in my education and avoid the engineering/finance/applied math/medicine routes.

A philosopher or philosophe
|
On March 24 2010 14:46 Fulgrim wrote: A philosopher or philosophe
An academic philosopher, or a philosopher? And what is a philosopher anyway? Moreover, what is philosophy? How can one be a philosopher if one doesn't even know what a philosopher is? Also: unless you graduate from Oxford or Harvard or any of the top 10 schools, your chances of getting a tenure track position are slim to nil, since there is an excess of Ph.Ds and a decreasing number of tenure track jobs; and this trend will continue as long as the humanities continue to be phased out of the universities. I know this because I've thought about becoming an academic philosopher.
For more info, see here: http://chronicle.com/article/Graduate-School-in-the-Huma/44846/
and also here (for a counterargument of sorts): http://chronicle.com/article/Neither-a-Trap-Nor-a-Lie/64535/
If I can't get into a top 10 school then my dream of becoming a philosophy professor dies, and I'll probably just end up working 9-5 at some job that I (hopefully) moderately enjoy. Sadly, as I get older, reality has its way of showing me that my dreams are pipe dreams. I'm not rich, so I need to earn money to survive. Alas, if only I had been born rich. Then I could've had the luxury of living a life of contemplation.

What I want to do really depends on what state of mind I'm in at the time of thinking on the topic. Usually I think I just want to finish college, take over my dad's business then go out and travel the world with my girlfriend, (preferably without her... damn clinger....) having a yacht would be nice too. Whenever I'm feeling down though, I'm content with just doing nothing. That's when I read the spoiler to bring my spirits back up.
+ Show Spoiler +If I could live again my life, In the next – I’ll try, – to make more mistakes, I won’t try to be so perfect, I’ll be more relaxed, I’ll be more full – than I am now, In fact, I’ll take fewer things seriously, I’ll be less hygienic, I’ll take more risks, I’ll take more trips, I’ll watch more sunsets, I’ll climb more mountains, I’ll swim more rivers, I’ll go to more places – I’ve never been, I’ll eat more ice creams and less (lime) beans, I’ll have more real problems – and less imaginary ones, I was one of those people who live prudent and prolific lives - each minute of his life, Of course that I had moments of joy – but, if I could go back I’ll try to have only good moments,
If you don’t know – that’s what life is made of, Don’t lose the now!
I was one of those who never goes anywhere without a thermometer, without a hot-water bottle, and without an umbrella and without a parachute,
If I could live again – I will travel light, If I could live again – I’ll try to work bare feet at the beginning of spring till the end of autumn, I’ll ride more carts, I’ll watch more sunrises and play with more children, If I have the life to live – but now I am 85, – and I know that I am dying …

I've done alot of screen writing and 2D/3D at college and I love telling stories... So yeah! But I think I'll eventually go to screenwriting  cool story bro. I know someone working in the video gaming industry and it's a tough world really, the business side. And since it's all business...
I'd want to 'ship' a video game of my own design. Perhaps as a lone wolf but that won't be achievable within many years anyway.

If I could then I would be... a performing pianist, then later on in life maybe a composer / educator. Reality: soon to be an engineer.

I'd love to be able to answer this question. Current third year in mech eng in a pretty good school (apparently) and I've lost all motivation to keep attending my classes as these past years have not turned out to be what I expected out of university. Feels like I've been wasting my time ^^. Now all I want to do is become somewhat independent and enjoy my "free time" to figure things out lol.

Why didn't I think of that?

* Finish college * Work 5-10 years * Start own company (5-10 years to stabilize) * Retire at age 35-40 and receive a mediocre pay check from my company for the rest of my time.
Why waste 40 years working for shit you dont really need? Family/friends > 2 cars instead of 1.

I'm currently double majoring in Business/Mathmatics.
Not really sure what I'm gonna do with it. My dad owns a small business in my hometown, and I'm gonna work there this summer to see how some Business works. Not sure what I'm going to do with Math, maybe something in finances or marketing... Yay not knowing what I'm gonna do!

start a music career as a producer.

In my dreams: travel to some really really distant planet that potentially has life, and discover it.
In reality, I'm about a quarter of the way through a Computer Science major at Oberlin College (probably with a History minor for my own personal enjoyment), and I'll probably try to join the Peace Corps right out of college for a few years, then think about grad school at MIT or Caltech or somewhere, and after that start submitting my resume to whichever game developer will take me.

Play SC2 (no key )
Actually, get a career going as a professional Japanese-English translator (no idea after that). I'm getting my MA in Japanese currently.

I would change majors asap if you really don't like your field. Otherwise the way I see it is that its still easy to recoup from your losses while we're still young. This is a learning experience for all of us , and we have a lot of time ahead of us.

Wanna help with the balance of SC2 but have no key....
Im actually in medical school and i wanna become one great specialyst and write a book about it so other ppl can be help with my work, have a family 4-5 kids with my GF =D pretty simple

Finish my undergraduate degree. Then work in:
a) CSIS: Canadian Security Intelligence Service b) RCMP/VPD: Federal/Local Law Enforcement c) Military Intelligence
I still have about 2-3 years to go on my undergrad so hopefully I've narrowed down my choice then. The hours I think would be much better in the police force, you get to see the family much more with a 4-day on 4-day off sort of schedule. The only thing I really don't like about military life is that you're away from your family for looong stretches of time.
I may just go to law school like my close friend is planning to.
|
i'm gonna try and get into a good medical college.but before that i have to finish a 4 year undergraduate program.so i don't know what i'm gonna do about that.plus i don't know which college to apply to. i was gonna try to get into U of T in Toronto.but i'm not sure yet.any suggestions?

A pharmacist or engineer would be fine by me.

I'm going to be over 30 by the time I get out of school. Doesn't really worry me, though. What DOES worry me is the thought of getting to be over 30 WITHOUT the qualifications. Then I'd be really fucked.

2 chicks at the same time, man.
But honestly I just want to do nothing and have people act like I am doing something amazing that only I could do, and give me lots of money because of it.
I will probably have to go into politics

I will probably have to go into politics Patrick Star already accomplished that goal in Bikini Bottom. He seem to have items, ability to buy and spend stuff yet he does absolutely nothing... and he got a trophy for doing absolutely nothing for the longest time which only he could do.... lol

I still want to be a colonist on Mars but i realize that even though I'm 20 I will be too old by the time it happens.

I would like to be a marine biologist one day, dunno if I will ever bother going through 4 years of bookwork for it though.
More realisitically, get into Civil Service as a welder.

Hopefully I will get some decent job with lots of creative freedom in some biochemical aspect. More probably I will be a lab rat

Progamer (Almost Impossible) Bass player (Current possible dream) Engineer (Almost Done)
Very, very nice topic :D

I'm in Computer Science because I wanted to become a game designer/programmer. Sad thing is, I'm one of those guys that went into the field and I was just tech savvy. So, it's been tough, but that's what I want to do the most.
Secretly though, guitarist. Metal guitarist. It's kind of a shallow reason why (to just act awesome on stage and be in front of tons of fans), but, hey, it's more of a fantasy really. I'm also nowhere near musically inclined enough to be good at it.

Mathematics/business dual major. Probably finance or something. Minoring in something else business-related.
Life will be good.

philosophy is either going to net you a job as a teacher or no job at all in most cases, psychology is more reasonable but everyone and their mother is going to school/graduating for psych. degrees right now
