What's your career choice?
2004-08-06, 9:48 PM #41
Well, after this upcoming semester off (and trust me, I really need it at this point), I planning on going for an Associate of Applied Science degree in Culinary Arts. I know that I might be able to live with being a chef. This is quite the change from my previous career goals of becoming A.) a lawyer or B.) a teacher.

The odd thing is I still know what my dream job would be, and I am going to try my best to continue towards that goal of going into stand-up comedy. I figure I'll be happy if I can manage to maybe get a semi steady gig at the two local comedy places, and maybe try to book a set in Chicago ~5 times a year. That would be my ideal life.

I'm interested in architecture and such... it's not a 'choice' at this point though.

I'll major in philosophy, hopefully will be able to go all the way to a doctor's degree, maybe write a couple of books then teach philosophy and psychology in unis.

This means BTW that I will be EXTREMELY poor until I'm about 40 or 50 years old (which is only 5-10 years before my death).

Valuable Life Lesson: Frog + Potato Gun = Blindness
Worship Examples - Christians' love for God should be seen and heard, not merely talked about. It is through actions that one is determined to be Christian, not through words. Words (and thoughts, as well) deceive even one's own self, but the heart speaks truth.

You seem like the type that would really excel and become successful in that field.

Me, personally, I'm thinking about graphics and game programming, perhaps design, but moreso programming.

Seriously, gonna finish uni and get by BA in Psychology, then I might try to get an air traffic control job with the DoD. Do that for awhile, saving up enough cash to pay my way through grad school.

Anyway, career choice? Heck, that's what I'm going to college to find out. I move into my dorm room at Northwestern in a little over a month, and I still have nothing more than a vague idea that I might like to major in political science.

I'll sell laptops on e-bay. After all, there's a lot of stupid people on e-bay. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] I've seen some p.o.s. laptops sell for rediculous prices. Throw in a phrase like "super fast" and the computer-illiterate people believe it, even if the next part says "400 MHz CPU".

Play on people's ignorance. That's where the money is.

After high school, I plan on enlisting in the US Army for two or four years and become an intelligence analyst. After or during I'm in the Army I plan on attending college at the Joint Military Intelligence Colledge in Washington DC. I then hope to get an internship at the CIA or some other intelligence agency. After I plan join the CIA or some other intelligence organization.

I don't know if you are being sarcastic or giving me a compliment (it's hard to tell, sorry), but I am, in fact, going to the University of Toronto this fall for Engineering Science. After 2 years you choose to specialize in Aerospace Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering, Manufacturing Systems, Nanoengineering, or Physics.

In any case, Aerospace engineering is what I've always wanted to do (well, I have actually always wanted to be an astronaut, but something to do with space anyways). So I'm really looking forward to September. :-)
