one of my french professors was telling me i should be a film historian with a concentration in french.
if this profession even exists, i will be content with dying poor.

I have two career options. why do you only have two career options??? you can do anything with an English degree! everyone loves an English graduate, they're bohemian enough to be interesting but have still studied an old school subject so have the conservative smarts too. win win. i want to be a club kid for a while to get all that hedonism out of my system, and use up all my hairspray and glitter and shiny fabrics. then i'll probably be burned out and become a hermit recluse in a shack on the side of a cliff and make secret projects until i emerge shimmering with something worth telling everyone about. and eventually i will have earned enough from secret projects/selling things/selling out etc. to open a soup FUCKING fdfghjkKITCHEn and commune by the seaside for impoverished artists and musicians and actors and uninspired children and, well, anyone who wants to create. you know in all those enid blyton books, when they used to ride their bikes to cornwall and stop at farmhouses and get given amazing free dinners by farmers' wives? that is what i want to be like, except a rock and roll version. |

I'm doing a German degree...but I doubt I'll end up doing anything remotely to do with German...I haven't a clue what I wanna be, I'm hoping that one day a little lightbulb will go *ping* above my head and I'll have this master plan...no wait, that'd be boring...I quite like not knowing what to do with my life!

i just realized that for the first time in my entire life i have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what i'll be doing this time next year.
i don't even know what i'll be doing in three months... hmm, three months from today will be october 13th... holy fuck 10/13... 10/13/2005 was such a wonderful day, it was way better than 10/13/2006... isn't strange how one year a day can be the best of your life, or at least the best that whole year, and the same day the next year is absolute shit? ooh now i'm nervous about what 10/13/2007 will be like.
there is something enticing about living under a false name.

As a child, I wanted to be a tightrope walker or a flame eater, a la the cabaret/burlesque
Nowadays, I'm thinking a double business/premed major, and then going to med school, maybe someday.
That sounds scary. I decided that exactly three days ago, while listening to Morrissey and wearing dark sunglasses and reading a really scary big book on SATS and interviews and stuff.

Earlier this year I found myself reading up on squatter's rights just in case I ever had the need, you know.
Uh... not so bright. At this rate I'll become some itinerant musician playing on street corners. But at least I can travel? ;D I definitely don't see myself settling in one place for a while... at least I have my mother's permission to wander the world. (That's what she meant when she said "don't have kids before you're thirty," right?)

hahaha
my mum just said don't have kids ever! so i'm pretty sure that means i can do anything i like too mimic
i would like to become a photographer, but i would like to travel maybe take pictures for newspapers charities, show people that they really need to do something to help one another. better then taking pictures of anorexic models right?
or else i shall work mundane jobs in funeral homes and cafes and work my way across the country after a couple of years and sell all the artwork i did during those years once i reach a city.
that would be good

i used to want to be a lighthouse keeper - like percy the lighthouse keeper
now i just reckon i'll be something dull and average like a journalist/in the city
being a carer sounds ace though although the pay is a bit rubbish. i volunteer helping autistic children at a school near mine and i just realised i could never do it. for one i'm scared about what they really know. i feel like such a knob patronising them but they could be geniuses they just can't communicate.

... right now, I think I'd like to be a flight attendant. Because I saw one today with a cool outfit in the cinema today.
(man, practical pumps + neck scarves = win)

i want to do art all the time
but i don't fancy being an artist
it seems like such a lonely job
though you can do art in community kind of things
like in groups
that could be nice

yeh
i just don't want to be the typical artist who keeps their work to themselves like i know a lot of people round here are :/
i like to be social
the residence gallery did a couple of exhibitions with joint things
one called 'found objects' (or something like that) was where a group of artists had 24 hours to go out, find loads of interesting things and make art from it together in the gallery
it looked really fun and interesting
so if i was an artist, ideally, i'd like to do things that are very social
i like to be by myself, but i can't do it all the time

I'm big. I'm a librarian. I like it. Except when three-sheets chavs lower than my elbow waft in with the rain to stalk girls on myspace and make the computer spout rap. Other than that it's great. I wanted to be more musical. If you're still little and want to be musical, PRACTICE!!! And be original. I never managed either.

I want to be a music journalist, own a record shop, direct films (I had a dream I wrote and directed a film starring Vincent Cassel and now it's my life goal) and design clothes, bags, jewellery and other assorted crap that no-one really needs but will be extremely fucking cool.
Ah, and I'd like to direct music videos. I always draw crappy little storyboards for songs.
And possibly write a book about ancient civilisations. Maybe become Indiana Jones and go on adventures across the world.
I would really love to own a gallery and put on exhibitions, from other people and myself, but I haven't shown anyone anything art-related I've done since I finished A-level art. I'm constantly hassled to get rid of this massive portfolio I have, and even though I can't bear to, I don't really know what else to do with it.
