what do you want to do

Ok, seriously.

I was watching Lost in Translation and it struck me that in the relationship between Bill Murray and the girl, there was this big difference.

Bill Murray was past his prime but had an idea of what he wanted to do with his life.

The girl was at the beginning of her adult life and didn't have any idea what she was supposed to do with it, and I think that was the main source of her frustration.

What about you? What do you want to do?
 
I want to fuk a turnip.

No, seriously I'll always do what I like the most: drawing/painting/creating something. At least we human rodents get a dignified creation.
 
Better myself

Which is stupid because it never end

Live, experience, learn, that's all

I have no desire to become rich

I have no desire to become famous

I want to study something interesting, and then get a job I enjoy, a wife I love and 2.54 children.

It'll be great
 
yeah, I know Kharn. We all want to get that in the end. That's like the prize- have a great life.

I am talking more specifically. More like Wooz.

Wooz- a bit more specific- you mean like write for a magazine, a book, own an gallery or be a professional artist? Graphic? cartoons?

Oh, in that case, much like Scarlett Johansson*, I don't know, hence my intention to spend the coming year travelling around the world, reading up on subjects, deciding what I want...

Nothing concrete at all yet, though I don't want anything in politics (bad experience) and prolly nothing in scientific fields (I have a gift for it, but it's fucking boring)

* who, incidentally, is my future wife
 
I got a whole lot of shit I need to do in life, but I won't go into much details.

First things first, and the first thing on my list is finishing this gddmn novel that's been teasing the hell out of me for the past months. It should be done by the end of May, though.

Then, I need to get a steady job, any STEADY job really (except working in the Post Office again, which was crap), but I hope that the new novel might get something going for me so I might get a job in the press again (which is where I belong, trust me).

Aw, and my driver's license, somehow I always forget about getting my driver's license. (Hey, maybe I don't give a shit about cars!) But I'm working on that, though.

Then, of course, the time will be ripe to find myself a good, young, healthy, fertile and attractive turnip and fuk it senseless to make lotsa little carnivores. Soundz like a plan! :twisted:
 
I'm in an art academy, 5 year superior studies.
I'm planning on finally winning the contest to get into Warsaw's Fine Arts academy, one of the best and toughest mofo schools to get in central Europe. There are 30 places and about 600 candidates. Talk about competition. I'm ina private academy, with the same professors the guys in the warsaw fine arts academy have, only it costs 350 USD/ month and my family situation won't allow me to finish that school. No money.

In any case, I'm on my way to be what some people call a "professional artist" ( damn I hate that title: "artist" makes me think of a snob).

Don't know what exactly plastic/art I'm going to do later, I do a lot of graphic/painting/drawing stuff, yes I do both cartoons, comics, sketches, as well as paintings. Finished a project for a developing programme's logo today. Since my interests are mixed with my everyday "school" I can't complain about going to that place. I really enjoy it, since I meet a lot of people with similar interests and the same "creation" lust.

And ofkourze, everything art related is based on improving yourself :D

Edit: oh yeah, and finally putting my 3 year relationship into something decent, not the emotional rollercoaster I've been in since about six months.
 
No clue.
Hmm...
no job,
no skills/talent,
no qualifications,
no rich spouse,
no trust fund
no direction.



In short, I don't know
 
Until last year I had no idea what I wanted to do. Then I took Psychology and I realized I had a passion for it.

I hope to get a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, support myself through a job (such as social work, hospital assistant, etc).
Then, when I have enough money, I hope to get my Master's degree and eventually a PhD. I will probably go into private practice (specializing in cognitive therapy for people with anxiety disorders, phobias, or addictions).

Or perhaps Forensic Psychology (assessing whether an accused is fit to stand trial, rehabilitating inmates, etc - psychology applied to law). However, women are discouraged from entering Forensic Psychology, from what I've experienced.

I've also thought about working in Hospitals, treating people with suicidal tendencies or suffering from eating disorders - although I think that would be hard on me. I don't think I could handle the death of a patient.

I will travel a bit first though before I do any of this. I only have free airfare for another 16 months or so, and I've never taken advantage of it. Would like to explore other places.

And of course, I want all that marriage stuff with the children and the nice house... but I'm not exactly thinking about that yet. May not even happen.

Why do you get free airfare?
 
My dream job would be law school after this, then work at the State Department in the foreign service, assigned to some other country. Eventually ending up as an ambassador would kick ass!

Damn, you already called first dibs huh....


What are your goals in life?

1. Be happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. Trying not to sound gay when saying "be happy!!!!!!!"

3. Nothing else.
 
I wanna be an author/some kind of writer.

Which I'm kinda practising for now. That is, slacking off instead of writing my large-ish college thesis and instead start writing it 1 week before deadline...
 
I am studying Electronic Engineering in hopes that I, in a distant future, can pay for a game designer career (or something like that) and try my hand at that. If that doesn't work, well...I have no freaking idea, but I do know I want to have some children.
 
Well, after about a year of searching and a ton of flying, I finally nailed down the kind of job I was looking for. So now in the process of moving to a completely new country (HK) where I can't speak the main language, but would be too busy working to talk to anyone outside of the office anyway. So I guess I know what I want to do. That, and stealing Scarlett from Kharn...
 
I just want to be content. I don't want a lot of money, I don't want a lot of rich possessions, I don't want to be admired by everybody. I want to be comfortable, and with somebody whom I am comfortable with. I want to be able to help people and animals alike. I want to be secure in my career. I want to have a lot of cats. I don't (at this time) want kids, and if I ever decide to have kids, I want to adopt. There are enough children out there in need of a good home. I want to be able to make those around me happy. I want to be the one they know they can go to when they're in need of help. I dunno... I guess that's it...
