Alright. I know the age crowd is very mixed on this forum, but the question remains the same..16, 20, 25, 30, 60..what do you really want to do with your life? (outside of cherishing your respected mazda) What career do you want to really persue? Kids? No Kids? Marriage? Lots of questions there. Me? I'm moving to orlando, florida to attend full sail design school to get a buisness and digital media bachelors of science. (finally, this is my third school) From there I hope to work for a company such as electronic arts on a concept design team. Anybody else?

In the meantime I'll stick to my day job as a Senior Designer/Art Director. Eventually I'd like to end up as a creative director either back in Phoenix or somewhere in Florida. Once I have kids and ship them out to college I'd like the wife and I to retire in Jamaica.

studying to be an IT professional.
plan to work in that field for 10 years, then open my own "At-Home Computer Service" business.

we'll see.......
 
I will never grow up....but in the mean time, I'm looking at real estate...the business is booming, my friends dad is starting up a business in it, and has said that if i go through the proper schooling, and get certified, I have a job..or I could fins one elsewhere, or w.e. I'll prolly be doing something in business or in social work
 
I have no clue. Im passionate as hell about computers/programming and electronics, but im not down with doing it for someone else. I do electronics and programming for my own needs and enjoyment, not for some suit who needs deadlines to be met, so he can look good and make an extra dollar....So, all this time ive been headed toward a degree in Computer Engineering, but god damn, this aint it for me.

I like to rage against the machine, but i cant help falling in line. I sit and think about dying and the pointlessness of life. It comes naturally; i cant get it out of my head. I really hate it. All i truely want is to be peaceful...really...but i cant....

...What i think would be cool is to have my own mobile electronics/custom audio/import tuning shop. Make my own hours, and tell whoever i want to **** off.

Ya know; I have a degree in Computer Operations (1985). It was a real trip going back to school 10 years after I graduated High School!! So; I worked in Operations with a few companies; then after moving back to the Midsouth (from Callifornia) in 1989, I went to work for the company, I am with now. But now; I am the IT Procurement Administrator. It's a great job. I order all the equipment, software, and about everything else you could imagine for the IT Dept., and for the 250++ locations, our company has throughout the country. I work closely with the Ops manager, who's a great boss, and the PC, and Server Techs. As a matter of fact, there is only one other person who has been in the IT dept. longer than me. So; it's a good job, and I have a lot of fun.
 
I am a computer programmer at the moment, but I would liek to do something with cars, even if it is just on the weekends... I don't want to do "repair" type work like a typical mechanic, but more along the lines of development work. But who knows...
 
It looks that way, but it kinda makes sense if you think about who would be posting in the middle of the day. I sit in front of this damn box all day. Then I go home, and turn on my own PC and sit in front of it at night... That may be why I enjoy my drive home in my P5 every night. Tonight I get to replace the bushings for the sway bar. Some folks may see this as a chore, but to me it is something that does not involve something digital.
 
lets see...i want to get my degree in architecture at the university of houston, and hopefully move on to georgia tech to get my masters. i do want to get married, and have 1 or 2 kids. i will own a porsche before i die...that's pretty much the basics.
 
I'd like to build fast cars, for a living. On my own, no pressure. I like sleepers, I've built one really nice one and love the satisfaction I get when it all comes together. I'm great at fabrication and enjoy it. I need to find a job that puts it to more use and that's closer to home.....


Oh, and the wife and kids part...already got one wife and 2 daughters. More than enough for me!

If you need a west coast satellite office, let me know ;)
 
I want to be a commercial airline pilot. Currently a Private pilot with around 100 hours. Started flying when I was 14, and got my airplane "learner's permit" before my car learners permit. I'm enrolled in Advanced Airline Training at Bow Valley College / calgary Flight Training. Should have my commercial lisence by my 20th birthday.
