I'm aiming for something, nearly anything video game related.
I'm already pretty decent at graphic design, decent at math/Algebra, and I can understand AI a little bit. I've already created one game, although it was very simple, i think i can grasp the idea of it if i were to work hard enough at it and study. I'm still kind of young though. Or I could stick with the art design for some games because I'm a little handy with GIMP, I could probably stick with using PS after some experience with it. I'm hoping to get PS before I even start my first job so i can do some pretty neat things. I might also consider being a video game tester, mainly because my sense of games makes it hard for a game to give it a perfect score. Besides, i have no biases when it comes to video games. And I'd be able to test games before they hit the market. I'm not sure what the pay is like, but it wouldn't be a bad idea of a first job for me. And if none if that works out, I might stick with being an author. A lot of my teachers love my writing work, and when i read it to people, they seem to really like it. I'm not much of a story writer, but poems are where I excel, or so I think. |

Wellll I'm in engineering school so I would assume I plan on being an engineer, but I am terrified that I will hate being an engineer so I would say my back up plan would be become a cop. Or joining the army. Or getting an MBA. Or becoming a hobo.

I'm actually having quite the dillema choosing my career before for most of my life I thought I wanted to be a doctor but after careful thought I began thinking I'm quite laidback and carefree and being a doctor requires hard work and it is very stressful as well as the person having someone's life in their hands and making a mistake can end it all. However being a game designer is less work I'm already quite imaginative, playing games is a big fun part of my life, I'm good at art and story telling and I dont like to be under stress also the pays between game designers and doctors is quite similar.
So I have a dilemma although game design seems like the obvious choice it is very hard for me to make a decision the courses I chose to take for GCSE can lead to either one.

An engineer to support my family.
But then again, I want to improve my skills being a self-learned pianist and all, and I do hope to create my own melodies someday. If ever I get tired of work, I usually turn to my black-and-white-keys and that settles the mood pretty quick. So yeah, a musician by myself might work.

I was aiming for something in and around professional photography but thats on hold for the time being as the current economical climate means i've no chance of affording both the cost of living and college.
Which sucks =I

I've been thinking about being a mortician while in college since I'm not scared of blood or dead things. But my sisters friend is a mortician and she says it's hard to find work because most funeral homes are family run and won't hire any body D:
And if anthropology isn't my thing maybe I'll be a lawyer |

Bad pun is barely a pun... Anywho, I want to be in a band, as a bassist. My two passions in life: God and Music. I want to live my life in a way that glorifies both, and even have music glorify God more. That's the best way I can see myself spending my life. However, forming/finding the right band...that's another story... |

Probably lawyer...although I really wouldn't mind accountant. I'm not very fond of either, although I'd be more inclined to accountant if possible because I'm fond of numbers and feel an odd sense of accomplishment working with them. However, my parents are really pushing the lawyer idea on me, and I've always been too obedient of a child for my own good.
I'd like to be a translator if I were to have fun at my job. |

One weird thing about me is that I actually like writing tests ^^; Having a lot of tests instead of writing essays is also another reason I may have gone towards engineering.
