Personally I want to end up working for Bethesda, using the Construction Set, or maybe writing the books. That would be a great thrill for me, having my own works found by adventurers far and wide across the face of Tamriel. Writing the quests, plot, and short stories found in an Elder Scrolls game would be a dream job for me... Too bad I need to go to collage first.

So how about all of you? What whould be your preffered job/career? Or, if you already have it, tell us what it is. Feel free to use all the detail you want, or lack there of.

Well, this coming fall I will be attending a private college that focuses on digital technology. The program I will be taking will get me a degree and a diploma in Electronics Engineering Technology, and this only takes 3 years to do. Once I'm done that, depending on what areas I do well in college, I'll look for a career that supports my strengths.

Currently in high school I handle the wiring/design for the Robotics Team so naturally at the moment I'm most interested in going into the Robotics field. I'll just have to see how well college goes before I look for something specific. The private college itself is said to look after their students for getting jobs by having employers come by and have interviews and such, so hopefully I make a good decision and get lucky with getting an immediate job.

I want my own island, well 330 or so, aka be the Prime minister of New Zealand. Alternativily a field officer with the department of conservation, being prime minister is really my back up plan if I become a failure.

Well, it would be a dream come true if my {When finished} books got published. Artist would be a nice 'side job' aswell.
Sometimes I think of game concepts, and if a company would ever want to take those on, it could branch in to a career.

My two requirements on my career are as follows:

1. It's artistic

2. I'm making the world a better place

So I won't be working for a video game company, I don't think, even though I get game concepts all the time. I suppose all gamers do once in a while. But I realized no matter what I'm doing it has to seem meaningful for me, i.e. it needs to help the world in some way, and I need to use my creativity for sure.

I'm thinking film-maker. I met this guy in college whose a brilliant cinematographer. His problem is he's not great at directing actors and his writing is very, very amateur. I'm hoping once he get's over himself and realizes I'm a genius, too, we can work together to make some good compassion.

Well currently I'm on a trek to become an officer in the Marine Corp. We will see how that works out in 4 years.

I would love to be an ambassador to a foreign nation at some point in the future though.

Was this after watching the film, Top Gun? Because from what I understand from my film class, that film was very successful in achieving Air Force enlistment, and bomber jackets and aviator sunglasses sold like candy.

Mmmm propaganda at its finest!

I've not seen all of Top Gun, and I wasn't too interested when Dad took me to where the filmed it. But I still want to serve, Air Force or InOps.

I figure I'll try to apply for Colorado Springs or West Point, become a commissioned officer (still haven't decided between air force or army......) I seriously doubt I'll be a lifer, or anywhere close.

PS: on the topic of Top Gun, still haven't seen it all. I hate the tomcat, the one of the worst looking modern aircraft (I don't care if it is or not). The F-15 and F-16 Fighting Falcon are so much better, so are the Eurofighter Typhoon, F-22 Raptor, Dassault Rafale, and SU-33 Flanker (I've really gotten back into aircraft since playing Ace Combat)

I am a biologist by profession, though I've also worked as a park ranger. Biologist is the job I've been aiming at for a while (really, since I entered high school) so I guess you could say I work in the field of my dreams. I'm also trying to establish myself as a writer. I'm hoping to get something published (sans pay, but still published in a literary journal of some consequence) this winter. I've also taught composition and physical science to college undergrads as a graduate teaching assistant.

I'll admit part of me always wanted to pilot robot suits like Iron Man.
