Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments You still killed him, so there is no "or" about it

Yeah, but everybody else thinks that it was just a regular old heart attack. They'd clear the body out for you and everything.


message 154: by Matthew (new)

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments Like I said, you still killed him, which is what I suggested.

And of course you would have to make it look like you didn't, that's like a *Duh* given

Eh, I figure it'd be easier not to have to be nervous about people looking for a suddenly "disappeared" architect. You know, the possibility of jail isn't really comforting, even if you did hide the body well. But yes, I would still end up killing them in the end, I'm just discussing an easier way to do it and get off scot free.

Okay. Who-Cheyla-wants-to-be-2.0
Because of recent "altercations" in my life plan, I'm not entirely sure post #1 remains entirely accurate. And that's like, so not okay :3

You know what I wanna be? Really and truly?

message 158: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (derek1) | 4 comments So pretty much my life turned around in fifth grade when I realized science was my thing. Then came the idea or murders, blood, death etc. those kind of things fascinate me which scared some people. I then realized I could have my science and gore in one job. A forensic scientist.


Two years ago, my teacher put us in a writing program. I wrote more than 10,000 words and it was alright. Then I began writing and creating multiple stories of all different genres. Then I decided an author was what I wanted to be


In the end I have decided to be an energetic- caffeine loving- forensic scientist- author


message 159: by attempted (new)

attempted (theabsolutedream) I lived in a small city when I was born, and moved to an even smaller city. We lived in an apartment building, but that was okay with me. I was only three. It only meant I got to live in the same building as my best friends. I don't remember much, because I was four when we moved away, but I remember the people and what I wanted to be. Whenever I played with the boy across the green he was Buzz Lightyear and I was Jessie the cowgirl. Whenever I played with Vanessa, the girl down the street, I was a princess. Whenever I went to my friend Caleb's house, we would play with his neighbours, and we'd be assassins. He and Pedro would chase Diego and me around the cul de sac until they'd catch us and carry us back to keep us prisoner in the pool. When I was in Jessica's room she would paint my nails for me, and tell me stories. Back then I didn't know what exactly I wanted to be, but I had a pretty good idea: An assassin cowgirl princess with sparkly black nails.

We moved to our current house, to an even smaller town. I wasn't used to having a house, and the neighbours were so far away! I became antisocial, preferring to play down in the basement with my Medieval castle set. It wasn't until age seven that I really started to talk to the people in my new town. That was when I wanted to be a Power Ranger. I packed up my Barbie Dolls, and we would have grandiose royal weddings, or spy missions, or Power Ranger Megazord battles. Didn't matter to me. I discovered the computer at that point in my life.

I had another idea of my future at that point: I wanted to be a librarian. Not just any kind, though. An elementary school librarian. Or a wizard. Either one worked for me. Harry Potter was the love of my life. I could have told you ever spell they ever used in any book, and I wouldn't waver.

The Doctor Who reboot of 2005 made me want to be a Time Lord, or at least a companion. I envied Rose Tyler and her travels with the Doctor. A wizard, at this point, was not going to cut it.

I discovered that I had a talent for writing when I was eleven, and my teacher chose for me to share a short story I had written. I was sent up to the university to read my work to a published author, college professor, and writing student. They told me to never give up.

When I was twelve my science class was shown a slideshow on organ donations. I was the only student in class who didn't feel even the slightest bit sick; The presentation was before lunch, too, and I didn't even mind.

When I was fifteen I took an Advanced Placement European History class. I discovered that I had a deep love for history, because I loved that class. I was one of the fifty five per cent who passed the test, and a lower per cent who passed with a high score. That class also developed my love for the cinema. I was bored by television, but the cinema had its own special kind of magic.

That same year my friend forced me into a singing competition at my school. I'm not a bad singer, I just didn't want to participate. I wasn't even nervous, but I stood in front of the judges for tryouts and sang Somewhere Only We Know by Keane. I wasn't selected to continue because of one thing: I cannot sing louder than a piano.

I don't know what all of that really meant, but I guess the end result is supposed to be what I am, and what I want to be.

I want to be a time travelling doctor who writes historical novels and sings in her spare time. It should be a cinch, though, once I grow my own TARDIS. ;)


█║ ✕ Angel ‟ (sirsly) When I grow up what do I want to be?

Well thats the biggest question in a persons life, am I wrong? At five it was to be a vet, at seven it was to be a magician. At ten a teacher; fascinated by my favorite teacher.

But what am I looking forward to now? What do I crave? Helping. It seems foolish to others, they laugh and say writing would be a better route but I love helping way too much. Meaning people or animals. My parents like to believe I won't hurt anyone, I would like to believe that too. But sometimes problems have to be done by yourself. A vet, thats all I've ever really wanted to be. Animals are my favorite thing in the world, even more than the internet and writing.

Once I found a bird, flapping, half dead outside my neighborhood pool. As an instinct I picked it right up in my palms. Everyone screamed, "What are you doing?!!!" My friends called me a vet, and stuff. So what happened was it flew into the clear window, and it happened to get head damage. No one would take the poor bird in, and it was a female that had babies around the area. She was chirping super loud, as were other birds. I felt really bad, no one would help it but a super creepy bird lady down the road. It survived one night super fine. But the next morning it fell over and never got back up.. I named him Noodles.

But anyways, being a vet is my all time dream. Of all dreams, its what I want to do. No matter what.

You're damn good with photos, Ri, and I think you should go for it.

Haha, well I don't take those photos myself, I just find them and appreciate the crap out of them, but thank you! The only photos of mine I've taken that I particularly enjoy are ones where I slow the shutter speed and move the camera, so vibrant colors streak across the screens.

I need to learn how to shoot a wider variety, but it all seems so confusing sometimes!

Cheyenne (cheylaraine) | 1882 comments Mod
What kind of camera do you have? Mine's a Canon, but its one of the good ones. I like to slow the shutter speed too. Very fun :)

They offer all sorts of free education online! You should look into it!

I'm not sure, I haven't used it in a really long time, because I can't find the batteries for it :/

Maybe I shall over the summer, when things aren't so crazy and I have more time. :)


message 168: by Hannah (new)

Hannah When I was three years old I used to come up with ideas and then ask my parents to write it the stories on the computer (Me telling them what to write) The stories were pretty bad, length wise and just how I phrased them. I remember one idea, it was about a princess who had a peasant mother and one day after leaving the cabin, the father died.
I also used to act out all my stories.
In grade two, while the other kids were playing at the centers I would be writing in my notebook. My teached actually told me to stop once.
In grade five I started writing my first novel (although it was really bad) and then it grade six I started writing another novel.
I read it to my class, and I knew it was good because even the boys said they liked it (Which is different for some of them) I was smiling for hours.
My teachers also really liked it. Since then I have started many stories.
I've also thought it would be cool to my a theatre actress. I would love to perform in musicals like Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables.

Matthew (phoebus) | 679 comments I use to act out little made up stories all the time to with my friends. XD

I was sort of manipulative and controlling though, about the whole plot and characters, but in a way that was charismatic and innocent looking. >.>


message 170: by [deleted user] (new)

Who do I want to be?

That's not a hard question. I want to be me. I want to be able to be me, and I want people to accept me for it. No, I don't want just to be accepted. I want people to love me for myself. I want people to love who I am, what I do, how I feel. I'm selfish. But that's what I want - I want to be able to be honest with people. I don't want to live my whole life fake. It's a terrible way to live.

I would agree, and I think that that's a very lovely thing to be. The most important person to please is yourself.

But if you work "in the field" you get paid like nothing. It sucks because that's what I want to do...
but not if I make nothing.
I'll be forced to be in a lab. *sigh*

If its any consolation, I'll make practically nothing on that. XD

E.J. (ejschoenborn) | 379 comments Sadly, those are two different jobs.
"Crime Lab Analyst"
and
"Crime Scene Investigator".

That way you can't point a finger at a "single" person for how the case goes. (i think)
