I don't want to grow up.

Same here, but face it , it's part of growing up and eventually you'll have to face it.

Anyway since i'm already going of to college next month I'm going to major as a graphic designer, athletic coach as my second, i've always had a passion for both computers as well as sports so... yeah.

I want to be a writer.

And not a journalist because I hate journalism. I want to write novels that pertain to, but are not limited to, the genres of: inspirational fiction, realistic fiction, sci-fi, graphic novel, and romance.

I want to avoid doing washed out and generic romance so I probably won't do too many of those and for the graphic novel I just wanted to finish a lifetime goal of mine which is to write "The Invincible Suit" series completely. I don't care if it gets popular, I just want to finish it for myself.

I'll probably spend most of my time writing realistic fiction. I just can't see myself writing nonfiction (unless it's an autobiography about my own love life) so I think I'll stray away from that as well.

Oh, and I like to write sonnets. I'll probably throw together a book of poems and try to get it published.

0.o So much to choose from really, it's kinda hard to choose what you wanna be!

I might be the manager of my father's business once he retires but I don't want to since it's kinda boring. If I had a job, mabye I'd be a chef, video game designer, teacher, scientist that has to do something with physics or even a well... I can't think of anything now -.-

It's fun thinking of what you wanna be when you grow up, but it's so hard to choose the job you want to stick with through your whole life in like 5 years for certain people...

When and if you go to college you can decide there. That's what a lot of people use college for.

And if that doesn't work out then pick the one that offers the most benefits and money.

I'm planning on skipping college and going to university, but I might take college if I don't decide by the end of high school what type of career I want to go in :3

I just don't wanna spend alot of time thinking about jobs... And especally if I decided to go into a job and later on I decide not to go into it. =D

They offer a lot of internships in college.

You could try each one of your preferences before it's all over, I would say. Then you could know definitively what you wanted to do.

But all in all just remember to do what you love. We should all spend our lives to the fullest extents. After all, you only get one. =)

My goal is to work the least amount possible while getting paid the most amount of money. Completely ignoring that idea, I like drawing so I'll probably do something in the arts.

@All of you wanting to work as little as possible and make the most money

Sure the wages would be nice, but wouldn't you prefer accomplishing something? Enjoying your work? There just has to be one activity you enjoy.

I enjoy Video games and music. Those aren't productive anyway.

not with that attitude they aren't. lol

i'm in the same boat. i think i wanna be homeless when i grow up...
lol If I could be in a Metalband(Progressive Groove Metal band) in the veins of Exhorder AND make a living out of it, I wouldn't say no. Gotta be realistic though. Real money comes from all the crap they teach me at school. D:

Yeah. Especially Metal being an "underground" genre. Only the big names get enough money out of it. Most of the big names suck anyway(Metallica).

If I enjoy my work, maybe. Athough, I don't want my life to be work.
I'm not going to take a job I hate or that'll make myself miserable just for money, but at the same time if there's a field where the money's just not there, it probably wouldn't be my job. You can always do those activities on the side.

When I think about it, I honestly don't care what it is I'm doing as long as I have the money to be able to support my wife and kids. I refuse to be some piss poor excuse for a father. If that means having my hands bleed to provide then screw it, I'm going to take care of my children.
