You sound like a really interesting person! A lot of your interests (i.e film, art) sync up with mine. It sounds like you have a lot of options spread out before you- which is a good thing. It's useful to have a lot of areas of interest so that you have an idea of what you want to do. A lot of people go their whole life without knowing what they want to do.

KissMeTwice UnderTheStars | 279 comments I want to attend The California Institute of the Arts. I want to major in music and minor in theater.

I want to write the scores(the music) for film and television. You know, the soundtracks that tell you when something scary is in the closet or when it's love at first sight for the girl in the subway that passes by. Yeah, that'll be me.

Well, in my wildest dreams. We can't afford the school, so the only way I can get in is if they like the music I write enough to give me a scholarship. /:
Fingers crossed for life.

Wow you guys, it amazes me how everyone has such terrific aspirations, and for all their personal reasons too! I hope that all of you achieve your life goals, because they all sound just pretty darn awesome! :)

I want to be Lyricist. Total long shot but I really want this. When i turn 18 I'm moving to Nashville where i hope i can get my songs sung. I want to take voice lessons and then maybe i can sing my songs. But that is yet another long shot. I would love for some people to read my songs and tell me if they think there any good. Here's the link: http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/2...
Thanks if you do!

Have you ever heard The Sunscreen Song? It has one of my favorite quotes in it.

"Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your
life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they
wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year
olds I know still don’t."

Pirl (pirlismyname) HA good quote:D

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments Here is my number one crazy goal(dream):

~I want to learn, I want to learn basically everything(science, history, architecture, music, language, explore the world, etc. the list goes on...) which is sort of...impossible(unless I was immortal)...but nothing can really tame my curiosity and my hunger for knowledge >.<
~When asked what I want to go to college for...um...everything :P

At this stage of my life I have the ability to become anything I want if I set it as my goal right now. Even without money, I have the ability to do that...now I just have to figure out what my life shall become

My dream...well if you must know:

~ My dream is do something...to discover something, to become something that will make a difference in the world...and all by just being me

Yep me that, really odd but unexplainable character who know one knows what to think of *shrugs*

...but in truth right now I have no idea what I will become


message 63: by Pirl (new)

Pirl (pirlismyname) Only few people really know what they want to be. Few very SPECIAL people:P

That's nice Matthew, inspiring. Not many people have that aspirational attitude that you do, and it's very inspiring and refreshing to see! :) And remember my dear, nothing is impossible.

You and me both, buddy. I have the same sort of idea! Learning everything would be cool, because then you have infinite opportunities, just as you say.
Particularly I'm interested in learning about modern and ancient forms of art.


message 66: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments It all began when I was six, and I wrote my first story. My heart filled the pages with every stroke of the pencil, and I can still remember the words of my teacher the day I handed it in. " Wow Taylor, this, this is horrible." So I decided NOT to become an author.

Instead I spent hours at a time sitting at the park bench, studying people. I studied how they interacted, how they went about, and what they gave to society. I soon had a list of who went to that park on what day, and what they did there. I thought humans were the most interesting animals in the world. I knew what a person would do five steps before they did it. I knew how they would react, and why they reacted that way. I loved it, and I've loved it ever since. So in short, I want to be a psychologist.

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments @Kanra

I'm going to study and learn psychology to:
~trick the people(doctors) to thinking I am sane(they will never get me back into the Asylum :O >.>)
~If I decide to be evil or to take of the world, understand the human brain and the process of how others might think will help


message 68: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments Oh ask Ri, ( Autumn ), Ive used my skills to trick many people. It's actually quite simple when you get to know the common human process of finding truth. They'll think their in control, but, they're not.


message 69: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments Indeed :P

Though, then there are just those people who will end up going against all that should be, those who processes are...well...different


message 70: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments Everyone is the same when you go deep enough.

People are like computers, all made by different companies. They might seem totally different on the outside, but deep deep inside the raw code. They prosses info in the same fashion.

Kanra | 87 comments bbl- church.


message 72: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments The majority of people do...but not totally all

There are some people who will defy what you think, dependent on their:
~sanity
~logic
~intelligence(or IQ)
~perception(though this can be the easiest to determine)

They will make you have to change how you think in order to decipher and then manipulate them

To think everyone thinks with the same base principles will only make you loose win you meet the person who doesn't, one of those rare people


but *shrugs* it all depends

Oh dear. I'm glad you've found something that you're good at, something that you love to do, and you should pursue that. Just don't do it on me, I've developed this hatred of being inspected since our actual first meeting. ;b

Who might that be Taylor? Just curious.


message 78: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments Oh, no one you would know…


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) Ah. So, how do you fare today my friend?


message 80: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments Aduquite, I had to clean the whole house.


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) Ah, that would be most undesirable. To thine self, anyway. Why did you need to clean in such manner?


message 82: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments @ kanra

Tell me when you figure me out? >.>

*giggles*((its much more scary/creepy then * bwahahahah* or * mwahahahah*))


message 83: by Kanra (new)

Kanra | 87 comments Cause my parents said- " TAYLOR! GO CLEAN OUR HOUSE! " So I did.


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) On the contrary Matthew, I find bwahahah or mwhahaha much more terrifying. Giggle reminds me of idiotic school girls with no brain cells to spare, who I very much dislike.

This is what you say to them Taylor. "GO CLEAN YOUR OWN HOUSE!" Then hide in a closet.


message 85: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments Yes....but i am a guy giggling.....see the difference


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) Well, it honestly makes no difference to me whether you are female or male. If you are giggling, I scorn you. By the way, a guy giggling seems rather odd to me.

Ehm. If I said that, my parents would hunt me down, and beat, me. Literaly, they would slap me till I bled.


message 88: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments Thats the point of the creepiness *facepalm*

Think of a giggling school girl....then add that onto a guy :p

Really? Wow. I, for once, have nothing to say to that.

Oh and Matthew? Your 'creepiness' is lost on me.


message 90: by Kåiłeē (last edited Apr 15, 2012 09:32PM) (new)

Kåiłeē (kailee-one-who-hates-cheerios) | 118 comments Ever since I was little I have ran.
And ran.
And ran some more.
I always think back to what my parents had told me about when I was 2. They had taken me to a high school football game, and naturally, they field has a track around it. After the game, I guess I had wanted to run a bit, in my nice white sandals and all. So, i drug my dad along with me on a lap, and then a second. My dad got tired and asked my mm if she could run with me. So, she did, and ran three more laps with me. My mom then got tired as well, so I continued to run three more laps on my own. My parents made me stop after 2 miles, too far for a girl my age to go any further. And the funny thing was, I didn't stop to walk at any point during the run. Not once. As 2 year old.

And it has been that way ever since.
In elementary school I had the best mile time in 1st grade out of our entire district. And that included all of the 5th grade times as well. Most kids would run a 10+ minute mile, while I ran it in 7:03. As a 1st grader.
In middle school, I ran a 56 second 400 meter dash in 7th grade. If you check some of these national standings, I have one of the top times.
Now, in high school I have ran a 4:54 minute mile, a 2:09 minute 800 meter, and a 53 second 400. I have competed in around 15 national track meets and 2 world wide meets. I train 7 days a week, 4 hours a day. I haven't had a soda since I was 7, never had ice cream in 3 years. You can kinda see how my diet works.

But on the side of all that, I read.
Reading makes my mind escape, forget about everything that is going on, makes me constantly think about what is going to happen next. The books excite me in ways I never felt possible, especially since I have read a series 17 times...

I love the design, the structure of things. Whether it be the plot structure of a book, or how a picture is formed, or how elegantly this shirt matches this necklace. I am studying right now to be an architect. I am not sure what kind of architect I want to be, but all I know is that I want to be one.

I want to be a track athlete and an architect.

I want to go to the University of Oregon, my dream school. Not just because of the fa-nominal track team and program they provide, but the architecture program they serve there is one of the best in the country.

Me and my family are going through a tough time right now (money problems, parents may divorce, older brother being sent to rehab, our dog died 4 days ago) and all I know for sure is that no matter what happens, I'm gunna push through the pain and keep running!


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) You are older than I thought. Much older. Wonderful job Kailee.

Kåiłeē (kailee-one-who-hates-cheerios) | 118 comments Well thank you! I am a Junior in high school to be exact!


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) Really? Holy crow, I am still in middle school.


message 94: by Kåiłeē (new)

Kåiłeē (kailee-one-who-hates-cheerios) | 118 comments Yeah, most of my friends say I am "too old" for good reads but I just snap my finger and am all like: "Uhh, noo..."


Tea in Chapter Three (teainchapterthree) Haha. None are too old for goodreads, mein fraunde. There are people in their 90's on here. Trust me, I have seen them.
