Ideally, I'd like to be an artist.
But because I most likely can't make money off that, I've decided I'm going to be an elementary or middle school (altho I'm considering high school) art teacher. I'll be in NYC in a year and I really want to help the city kids. It combines my two loves..art + children.

Right now I am going to school for a degree in Psychology. I would love to change my major to Nutrition, however my school doesn't offer that.
I want to have a career that is fulfilling..I want to help out children and adolescents...maybe foster kids or just in general at risk...
Might go for a minor in Criminology....
I'm not real sure, but I know I want to help people I think...or something...

Whats funny is that society has such a bad view of cannabis smokers but just look at the jobs we want/or have. We wanna do good things, we wanna teach, help the community, and more. We have good grades and steady jobs. We have goals. It's so stupid that alot of people look at "potheads" as being lazy and immoral. Hmmm...just a thought.

I will confidently say that most of the hardest working people I know are stoners. The most efficient workers I know, are stoners.
It is amazing to me how many people look down upon cannabis.. yet here I am...going to a University full time...working full time making around 10$ an hour...I pay my bills....I have a good, happy social life...
Yet I know so many people who are so anti drug that are really the biggest morons I have ever met.
Really makes ya wonder...yeah?
The most intelligent people I know have dabbled in their share of drugs, and many of them smoke marijuana on a regular basis.
It really is a frustrating battle.

You're damn right. Most stoners who actually respect the herb are good for A LOT more than just punching in a clock. Lol I was actually baked during several of my performances as Bottom in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and that was generally considered the play's best acting. I told my friends I was baked and they didn't believe it; they said that herb would make someone forget their lines and fuck up all over the place, and start giggling.

Man, opening a restaurant sounds like a lot of stress and a lot of work.
My friends own the best pizza place in town, and the owner is there every night until like 1am...and he has a new baby at home.
Restaurant business is a tough business.

Alright, not exactly what I want to do with my life...but it's my next goal in life!
Currently taking scuba diving classes and I am pretty close to getting my liscence, which will allow me to teach scuba diving.
I plan on saving up some more money and leave for Baja Cali/Mexico. There I can teach tourists and others to scuba dive. I will also work on web and graphic design projects and that should suffice me more than enough. Plenty of time for physical and mental training, fishing, diving, being with nature! (and grow my own weed). I will probably become fluent in spanish after some time and that will be great to add next to my french fluency. :thumbsup:
Then come back in the U.S. and KICK ASS !

Oh it doesn't take long to fall in love with it after you get a glimpse of what goes on under there!!
To be honest with you...since I've been diving I get a little paranoid of going deep in the water at the beach without my diving gear. I got used to always seeing everything and not being able to annoys me! hehe
Anyway sorry for off-topicness, but you gotta try it !!

Technical writer. There are some chill jobs that start you out a 60,000 as a tech writer. Comp's need people badly for that position, it usually pays well starting out, and I will get to have an office job.
I'm also thinking about going over to Germany, Amsterdam, or another area to teach English for a year after college. They need English speaking teachers and think it would be fun to live in another country for 6 months - a year.

But for the time being, I'm interested in getting into the Electrician trades. Right now I'm working on getting a DL, then I'll see if I want to go to school again or not, but right now, I am focusing on getting a DL so I can drive for some businesses.

Well when I grow up (lol) I want to own and cook at a tapas bar, with a big stone fireplace, and awesome finger food, and bullfight posters on the walls, and deep leather overstuffed chairs, and sangria that just won't quit.
Until then I guess I have to be content being a chemist. *sigh*
Speaking of, where the heck did vapordaddy go, and did he ever get that severance bonus?
Oh and just remember people... if you want to be a teacher... don't be plastering pics of yourself all over a cannabis site, DURRR.

I want to be a sex therapist. There is no real certification for them in Canada, so there are many regular psychologists or couples counsellors who are trying to pass themselves off as knowing about sex. They give out wrong advice to their patients, so that's where I step in. There are only a handful of legit sex therapists in BC, and even less in Alberta- but doctors agree there IS a need for them. So, I have combined my love of psychology with my love of sex and voila! Sex therapy came to mind.
I always wanted to have a career helping people, and I really think I can help out people by being a sex therapist. Whether we like it or not, sex can make or break a relationship. Oh, and I also plan on going around to schools teaching sex-ed in a fun manner while teaching REAL info (unlike the shit they teach in the US) to kids. Like as a volunteer thing. And eventually, I would like to have my own clinic, and then work out of my house when I get closer to retirement.

Hell yeah, I think this generation will abolish all of the neg stereotypes of stoner's. Oh I'm going to school for a degree in Political science and Philosophy which I hope to use as an entertainment attorney or a criminal attorney. All depends on how bad the war on drugs is during the next 7 years. Hell if cannabis is legal I wont get any business lol. Jk but the way Florida operates maybe i'm not.

Psychologist or maybe a children's book author. Or both, ideally.
I also plan on selling weed and psychedelics at whatever university to pay for recreation.
