Ultimately, to serve God with all I am, all I can, all my life.

Change America. The world. Be a writer. Hero. "Sheepdog." Prepared. Video game designer. Movie maker. Music maker. Treasure hunter. Monster hunter.

...And so on, and so forth.
God bless,
Crushmaster.

Vanya, if you promise to keep to the books, you can produce mine too.

Here are my dreams by order of most wanted (some of them have been achieved).

Wife
Mom
Writer of a one hit wonder (trilogy)
Compassion International Benefactor
Short term missions leader
The zookeeper/zoo vet that everyone listens to because they're the one who knows what's going on
a field botanist (I don't like labs)

I used to want to be a vet but then I realized I don't like people especially when they think they know their pets better than I do.

Treasure hunter? Very nice.

What do field botanists do?

They work with plants but not in labs, I wouldn't want to be cooped up in a florescent lab all day...

I know what you mean. I don't want to be in a lab either.

I'm an odd soul when it comes to career goals! When others my age would say they wanted to be a fireman I would say that doing that was dangerous and I wanted to be a lawman, or such things as that.

Right now; I want to be a microbiologist, or a pharmacist, or a pharmacologist or I was thinking of maybe being a anesthesiologist. Whilst writing a bit in my spare time. Along with possibly teaching classes in dance and music.

You sound like a busy person.

Ooh! That can be dangerous! (depending on the type of course)


Haha! Probably! I'll have to see where God leads me, I hope that all works out. And then I have to juggle a family in my other hand too...

I'd stay away from sharks.

I don't think I'll have a family.

*Has no idea what she's going to do when she grows up.*

I've considered being a sound person, but I'm not sure I want to do just that. I'd like something that includes a lot of traveling to exotic places. And I would have no objections to being the author of a New York Times best seller.

Good ideas.

I would definitely like to get married and have a bunch of kids. Definitely adopt some of them.

As for a job... I don't have the slightest clue. Whatever God has for me to do.
I love music... maybe something to do with that.

It must be quite hard to adopt children. Definitely a lovely thing to do though.

I'd like to be a graphic artist, and a professional guitar player. Maybe a guitar teacher, too.

I'm happy to say, all those things are well within grasp. I have a guitar, the motivation to play it, and I've almost got enough to buy Adobe Creative Suite 5.5, Design Premium. And I'll probably be starting beginning guitar lessons in the next month or so.

And a writer, of course. And a housewife, of course, if that's what God has planned for me.

It is, believe me.

No, it is not at all easy. *Has two adopted siblings*

I've always wanted to be a wife and mother - particularly a stay-at-home mother. Wife, check. Stay at home, check. Mother? Still working on that part. In God's perfect time. I've had the opportunity for a successful career, but my heart's not dedicated to earning money in a 9-to-5 workplace. I'm a practicing author (if doctors practice, why not authors), and even if I never find a publisher, I still feel like that's my calling.

A what? And you never told me you wanted to be a pharmacist

Oh! I didn't? Hmm... I guess I didn't!

I've wanted to be a missionary ever since I was small. Besides writing, I might be a teacher. Probably teaching high school because while I love children when they belong to someone else, I have no patience whem they stop listening.
If I was dreaming, however, I would be a stay-at-home mother. Somehow, I don't see that happening. I like learning too much. Likely, I will not do someting that relates to science. I would like to teach English. However, I'm not very fond of the curriculum. There are novels I wouldn't read.That being the top of the iceberg. If anyone's interested in why I don't like the ELA curriculum...
I don't know. I once considered teaching music. I'm not sure. My father tells me i'm not ambitious. I'm still thinking. I mean, I'm taking all my dash one courses anyways, so I have nothing to decide until university registration. Unless I want to act, which don't.

I've heard the anesthesiologists get paid very well; and that it's not that hard of a job.

Not working 9 to 5? I really agree there; so I'm plan on being a marine archaeologist or a river guide.

I still don't know what an anesthesiologist is
And I agree with you both on not working 9-to-5. I think I'd be terribly bored. Varon, what do you mean by river guide?

They handle the anesthesia in surgical operations.

Leading white-water rafting groups down rivers.

When in doubt... wiki it!

Yep, or Google.

I've wanted to be a commando at one point, but I don't work well in the military structure.

Missionary and teaching sounds awesome, Aldara. My sister thought of teaching music as well at one point.

I would want to be a writer and a missionary. But if that doesn't work out, I have several back-up plans. I would become a proofreader or a publishing agent. Maybe even a teacher.

They all sound like interesting dreams and goals, Misty.

Thanks Elanor. I don't plan on going to college for long... maybe a year or two.

I'll take my team, and try to pay for it as I go. Hopefully as a river guide.

Something a little more practical that I want to become is an acquisitions type person. You know, like archaeologist, obsessive person, showoff, secretary, etc. type person mixed together? Mom knows more about it than I do, but I know I want to do it.

Hopefully after becoming a millionaire from being an acquisition person (not sure how likely that is), I want to buy a submarine, become Captain Nemo for real, and help rehabilitate people who have been treated wrong or who are about to make/have made really bad decisions. It would be through love and the Word of God. I think that would be a really neat career. Not sure how likely it is, but I feel called to it.

That's amazing Nemo. And that is a very unique dream Varon! River guide... never heard that one before!

They lead white-water rafting tours.

I know. I've just never heard anyone say that they wanted to be one...

It's not a common job. If I had mountain experience, I could be a mountain guide. But Ohio's flat.
