Have you made any plans for yourself to live out the rest of your life? If you have, what are said plans? And if you don't have plans, what would your ideal future be?
Here's mine:
I'm going to graduate college with a degree in computer animation. Then, I shall move to California (since a large majority of animation is done there), and get a 1 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment. I'll buy all my furniture at Ikea, and have a fridge stocked full of Vitamin Water, various steaks and other meats, and organic vegetables. I'll have a nice couch with a plasma TV sitting right in front. Whatever game systems exist by then will be sitting below/to the side of the TV. I'll learn how to cook via the internet/Food Network, and be able to whip up a mean Prime Rib on special occasions. I'd have modern technology: Most likely an iPhone after a while, and the most kickass computer ever.
Of course, what life would be complete without the perfect female counterpart? Eh, I'll worry about that later. Living the above dream by myself is epic enough for now. |

As of now my current plans are: graduate college with a B.S. in biology, maybe get a job in a lab for a while after that. Either after undergrad, or after I've gotten enough money saved up, ace the MCAT, get into a good medical school. Study my ass off in med school, ace all the USMLEs, then go through however many years of residency, then finally get a job. After getting a job I'll get a cheap apartment then pay off my debts until I'm 45. After that I can live it up while enjoying my job: saving lives, and generally trying to make a difference in people's lives. Somewhere in there throw in a Porsche and a love story, a couple of good friends, and it's as good as gold, maybe better. |

I'm gonna go to MIT or some high-end university, if I can, and graduate with either an animation degree, a programming degree, or an accountancy degree. Then, maybe, I'll settle down in a not-so-major town, and either have a family, or live by myself with awesome shit in my apartment.
And I'm probably gonna be a programmer, make games and stuff. |

Uhh.. basically go to college and university... and after all of that, well... I've got a lot of talents I can work with, but I'll probably go with either art, or science. I've been looking at teaching science, though. My past science teachers have told me that I'd make an "excellent teacher". I'll make sure that whichever job I get is high-paying enough, though. There are so many things I want to do, haha.
I plan on taking a course at Summit School to learn to make guitars at some point.
Knowing me, I'll probably stay on Vancouver Island, if I can. Then again, all the decent jobs are on the mainland, or in the states (which is why everything sells so cheap here compared to in Vancouver).
I plan on travelling a lot, so I want to make sure that my job is something I can do away from a work building, or something that forces me to travel. Or the teaching career, where you happen to get a few months off.
As for my love life... I wanna meet someone who's as creative and silly as me, is romantic, and has a good sense of humour. I couldn't live with a boring person, it just wouldn't work out.
I'd give up my travelling plans if I met the perfect person, and they didn't want to travel. lol.
Yup, yup... s'about it. |

Graphic Artist/Illustrator/Artist something. That's my strongest field, even though I'm pretty good at everything. I want to get my Japanese master, Art master and teaching master then hopefully have enough money to move to Japan and teach art somewhere. Chances are I wont have enough money, and I'll become a dead beat and kill myself. :) |

MIT is super super hard to get in to, you need to be like top 10 in your class to have any chance to get in. |

I'm going to try and go to a college where I can major in band, music theory, or whatever they have. I want to follow in my dad's footsteps and play music in a bar with a few friends, because I don't care if I get paid or not, I just want to play music. I'll probably get an apartment somewhere, maybe live with a friend. I might try graphic arts as a side interest or career if I don't get one with my music, and be a generic photoshop web design lackey. I don't want to get wrapped up in love until I'm older. |

Currently right now...
After graduating high school, I'd go get my bachelor's degree in Photography, perferably at the University of Illinois at Chicago or another location. After I get my bachelors I'd rent an appartment near my mom's place for a while while I get on the job training for just some basic photography like for family portraits. After working there for a few years, I'd try to go for a bigger job somewhere else like possibly a forensic photographer or an erotic/pornographic photography(Shut up, I know it sounds dumb but I sadly see myself doing that D . I won't forget about my love life and whatnot.
I have other alternate ideas such as being an Art Director for graphic designers or in the field of working in recording studio and helping with bands. But I don't know. |

MIT is super super hard to get in to, you need to be like top 10 in your class to have any chance to get in. | Thing is, right now, in my class, I'm within the top 1%. Not very hard getting there, really.
And if I did go to MIT to animate shit, I'd get jobs really damn well. And if I did take up animation, I probably wouldn't go to MIT. Ever saw the part after "or?" |

Yes I did see the part after "or". I was just making sure you knew how difficult it was to get in.
