i never really had any dirrection (there was a thread like this before just so you know ;)) maybe when i was like 4-6 i wanted to be a cop, but that was about it... i never really wanted to be anything when i grew up.. which is why i think i am nothing now.. i didn't have a dream to shoot for, or something to try and become... alli cared about was getting older... and you know.. now that i have a kid... i want it to stop.. cuz the years are flying by, like on the time machine when he gets in but gets knocked out, and the years are just flying by... that's how i feel.. i feel like i'm sitting there watching everything fly by me...

A bus driver, a firefighter, a cop were all things I wanted to be when I was little. I changed my mind a lot and still do. I will prob end up being a technical writer making about 60K a year starting out. Dallas is in desperate need from what I understand.

The sad thing is, like many of you, I didnt inspire to be anything either when I grew up... The fact my parents had some 'money' made it worse cause never even had a 'drive' to even work for the longest time... I spent my HS years skipping class and hanging out with friends and girls and my 2 yrs in college being more focused on getting laid then studying...
Now that I'm 28yrs I see soo many things I would do different now had I had the chance to start over and wake-up tomorrow a Freshman in High School... I dont know, I guess if I could do things over again I would have liked to have went into medicine... But now, my ambitions is just to get into a $25 - $30 an hour tech job and just try and enjoy the rest of my life ahead of me.

I'll try and find a thread i replyed to and answered alot of questions about it, basically i told everyone how i got my job and how i quit school.
I'll try and find it, but if i cant:
Im working as a marine engineering manager, we dont only do mechanical engineering though, we build all of our boats from scratch, fit them out, do all the engineering, electrics, water, heaters, the lot.
The biggest we have at the boat yard is only small in reality, its 48 ft, but we only do hire boats.
During the winter when people dont want holidays on the river we take on private work and do repairs and servicing on them.
The pay is good, very good, i mean, i get enough to pay all my bills, get everything i need to live comfortably and i can still get weed with the money left over.
Im lucky though, i havnt got any qualifications because i left school 2 years before any final exams or anything.
If i can find the thread it'll explain it a bit more [it's a long read thuogh lol]

I've aspired to several careers in my life and it all started with me wanting to be a pirate when I was like 6 yrs old. By 12 I wanted to become an astronaut and then I found medicine very interesting in my midteens. Now that I'm 19 I decided for biochemistry.

Lippa...here's that thread you're looking for. I remember making it, as I think any kind of engineering is a good career choice...and very interesting to say the least.

Anyway, I always wanted to be a professional basketball player in the NBA. This quickly faded when the freshman bball coach at my high school told us that none of us would ever play at that level LOL. He was right. But I also wanted to play football...or become a music producer or work with Hollywood in any way. We'll see.

When I was small, I wanted to be a model and wear designer clothes and have my picture in magazines. But I guess I went to the bathroom when they were handing out height, and realized I'm not tall enought to be a model. So then I wanted to be a veterinarian, then a doctor, but didn't want to be in school for forever and a day. So now I gonna be a nurse.

I wanted to be a doctor, mostly. But I also wanted to be a teacher, a dancer, a police detective or private eye (these were TV-motivated ambitions), or a pet-store owner. Oh! And a big ambition for me as a little girl was to be a bride and get to wear a white dress and a veil.

I wanted to be a long haired drug addict hippie because my father was a cop and I did not like him too much at the time.
So I became that long haired hippie drug addict loser and found that it really was not all they said it would be. Now I am a short haired pot head biker and I don't give a fuck.

Quit tripping. Go back to school and do what you want to do. 28 years old is NOT old. You can do whatever you want in life brotha.
It's tough but I work full time and go to school full time so that I can go to law school. The older you are, the more rewarding school is. I can tell just from your post you would be successful if you just gave yourself the chance.

I wanted to be a boy when I was 8... Then a vet, then a doctor, then a nurse, then a journalist, and now I'd like to be a writer for a comedy show, like The Simpsons or Conan...
After my little sister saw Fifteen And Pregnant at 12, that was her lifelong ambition. Her 15th birthday passed without any pregnancies, sadly...
