I just remembered something, I forgot to post MY DREAM.....eheheheheehehe........oops.

Well, I have to be honest, I don't know if my dream will end up changing, but this is my MAIN FOCUS.
I want to travel the world and help people, well, in terms of welfare and travel to Africa, or America or ANYWHERE!!! People criticising (THIS IS AUSTRALIAN SPELLING) my dream, but I will work my hardest, I am not taking anyone else's BAD opinion on this. I also want to live in the United States, well when I am older of course, but I HIGHLY DOUBT that will EVER happen.


message 254: by [deleted user] (new)

That's the best dream on this thread


message 255: by [deleted user] (new)

Well thank you Sumaya, but everyone else's dreams are awesome as well, and more "detailed" and "specific" than mine. But thanks, glad someone thinks it is a good way to make a living.

Brooklynn s.. | 420 comments I would like to become an interpreter and know american sign language and have a degree as a child welfare social worker.. I love helping people and kids. If i could I want to go to the Dominican Republic and help the hearing impaired kids there. By the time I'm 32 I would like to have 2 kids: a boy named Jasper and a girl named Hanley. Live in Clearwater, Florida. Also go on vactions yearly in different countries!:)


message 257: by [deleted user] (new)

That is great, and I love helping people and kids as well, your life is already planned!! (thats supposed to be a good thing)


message 258: by [deleted user] (new)

I think everyone here wants to be an author xD same here! Must be great if someone we know right now (hopefully all of us!) gets a deal and be famous. We'd all be like 'hey, I know them!' Or maybe I should ask for autographs right now?


message 259: by [deleted user] (last edited Jan 27, 2013 04:39AM) (new)

Umm anyway: I want to be an author and rent a nice flat in the middle of the city, or live in a house near the woods with large backyards and great view. Some other jobs I want, to be a journalist (because you could go to great places and see new people AND get paid), translator (read good books AND get paid), psychologist, or an artist/crafter. I'd want to have a pet cat. Or maybe I could travel around the world?

About getting married and having kids, idk :/ i feel like if I have kids it would only add the world citizen population. But if I have one, I'd name her Pandora. I haven't think a boy's name yet!

message 268: by [deleted user] (new)

I want to do music, but I'm not quite sure how I'd make a living of that. I've never wanted to be anything else though.
If I had children I'd homeschool them. Definitely.
And if I get married I want it to be to someone who I've known for a long time.
It's all in God's hands, however.

Harry - Do you like composing music at all? Or teaching music? Or you could play in an orchestra ...
Those are awesome plans. I definitely agree :)

I want to be a writer of both fiction and non-fiction, a philologist/literary critic, a polyglot linguist, maybe dabbling in translating, and an amateur phoneticist.

There are career options in music therapy if you think that may be something you would want to do.


message 271: by Lade (new)

Lade (ladet) | 269 comments I want to travel, learn languages, be married by thre time I'm 25, have 3 children by or before I'm 30. finished with all my schooling (PhD maybe) and a career in [Child] Psychology, Guidance & Counselling or Teaching + makeup & photography


message 272: by [deleted user] (last edited Jul 07, 2013 10:30AM) (new)

I've always wanted to be a writer, ever since I think I was five or so. I want to own a small amount of property somewhere near London, but in a quiet enough place that I'm not bothered much. I think I'd like to have a horse, and just a small cabin next to a river or something will do. Somewhere that will stimulate my writing, and my need for the outdoors.
I'd also like to own a small, unique bookstore in a little English town. Something you might see in a fairy tale, with a cute little café and lots of books piled high on the wall.
By the time I'm 23 or so I'd like to have a large youtube channel, like Meekakitty or Danisnotonfire.
I want to go to a nice college. Like Oxford, or Yale. And be a liberal arts major, focus on creative writing and the visual arts. I know it's not much for money wise, but it is my passion.
As far as romantic relationships and family goes, I don't intend on marriage, or kids, but I think that's really something you can't plan. I think if I met a man, though, he'd be liberal enough not to really get married. Just be together, with no obligatory tradition. I think marriage is barbaric, and it can be very sexist sometimes. And I don't want kids.
I just want to be somebody for people to look up to. I want to change somebody's life, like my favorite authors have for me.

Lade (ladet) | 269 comments also, I hope to have learnt sign language. and be involved (physically) with charity work


message 274: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (melodicstar) | 3 comments My dreams are to be able to go to college and try to STAY in it XD I would like to be a journalist, an author, or an actress :) I would like to be really dedicated in any of those things. :)


message 275: by Mary (new)

Mary Filmer | 15 comments Hi, Don't ever loose the dream. I am a children's author and it is hard work not only writing the books but the marketing it even harder but if you want to writer never loose the dream for once you have your first book published it is the best felling in the world.

Leyah (serferrant) | 8612 comments My dreams are to be an author, an actress and a singer/songwriter. The third may be a bit fantastical, but I have written a few songs and played them to an audience. But I am going to be an author, and a small-town actor (nothing too big)

Mary Filmer | 15 comments Hi Ellaia, I hope you do.

A H I want to become a journalist! Whatever I do, I know that I want to write in the future. Whether it's articles for a magazine, or newspaper...whatever it is, I want to write. More specifically, I wanna be a journalist and write articles in the newspapers. And of course, the dream of my life would be to write at least one bestseller!

K.C. Steward (kcsteward) | 4 comments I've been an editor for the last 15 years...recently laid off due to downturn...but it is a great career and I hope to find work editing on a freelance basis.

This time off, however, has given me a chance to work on my dream of writing scripts, plays and books. My dream is to make enough money selling my writing where I can edit here and there--pro bono--and learn to cook sophisticated meals.

Awesome!!


message 291: by Daniella (new)

Daniella | 3 comments In the future, I hope to be involved with some creative aspect of the world as my main job - books, theater, music, journalism, or using the Internet creatively like the YouTubers I watch. I'll be living in NYC with my best friends for a while, then when the time is right, I'll be married and have kids. I also hope that I'll be successful at what I do, whatever I do.


message 292: by Zechariah (new)

Zechariah (zechbarrett) | 2992 comments I have a heart for missions, and I'd like to travel the world. I'd also like to have success with my stories, but always remain humble. I'm an introvert as well, but doing plays, speech, and social jobs have helped a lot.


message 293: by A (new)

A H I want to become a journalist. I'd really love to work with newspapers and write articles and do such stuff. Whatever I do, I wanna write. And my biggest dream is to write at least one bestseller.


message 294: by spidrenflora (new)

spidrenflora | 78 comments I won't get married. I'll adopt kids, aged aged 11-14, become a Pediatric Oncologist and a professional dancer with either the Royal Ballet or The big company in New York. I will live a full life, but I will die before I get too old to do what I love. I'll live in either Kauai , England, or New York.
Yup, pretty idealistic, but one son hope. It's a long way off.(:


♔ InfiniteRoyalty ♔  (infiniteroyalty) | 42 comments I think that I won't start off as a teacher...I mean, I'd probably be better received young by students, but I'm considering becoming something else first and retire into teaching...

Situations change, and my point of view in teaching (in Australia anyway) has definitely been altered severely...I hope that I can find my true purpose in this world...all I know is that my path goes towards University but how I get there, I have no idea anymore...
