What are you going to be when you grow up? I either want to be a movie director, photographer, or nurse. What about you?

Technically, I am grown up. In other ways, not so much.

Writer. Which I am, sort of.

I kind of wanted to be a secret agent when I was younger....but realized I wouldn't have the personality for it.

I considered being a psychologist...but I'm not sure if I'd be suited to that or not. Some parts of psychology are really interesting.

Some sort of government job maybe...where you travel...

I always wanted a horse ranch, with lots of other animals on it.

Criminal Defense Lawyer.

A veterinarian, definately! Or maybe a chef, if I can't be a vet (I love to cook).

@Ameraka: I wanted to be a secret agent too

I want to be an actor... which I kinda already am xD

I personally want to be an economist.

I have no idea..

I dream of being a wife and mother, and perhaps an entrepreneur.

I don't know. d= I'm unable to settle down, so I'll probably be jumping all over the place. xD Right now I'm torn between being a journalist, editor, or writer. All I know is that I want to be alone and hopefully in a city. xD

You could do all of them if you were freelance.

Which I'm planning on. I could never do a 9-5 job. d=

Me either! At least, I'd rather not. I'm working on freelancing right now. Well, beginning to try to. I did sell a short story recently!

I hope to be a wife and mother as well. Until then, I hope to be a teacher.

I want to be either an illustrator or a concept artist, but I'm planning to double major in Visual Arts and either Business or Marketing; at least with Business or Marketing I have more of a chance of getting a good job, even if I can't do what I want.

I want to work with the deaf (translater, teacher... I'm not sure), but if (PLEASE LORD!) I get married, I want to adopt and/or have a deaf child.

I want to work in video/audio production for the purpose of entertainment. Ever since I was a kid, I loved making people laugh. Plus, my mind is really weird, and putting my thoughts into writing or videos seems to be enjoyable for others.

How I will turn this talent into a job is kind of up in the air, but my top 3 choices of job for this skill would be:

1. My lifelong dream which has been working for Focus on the Family as a video/audio producer for Adventures in Odyssey and/or other projects FOTF is involved in. Unfortunately job prospects at FOTF aren't as secure as they once were, so I am not sure about how solid a job like that would be.

2. The job I would likely have the most fun with: Youtube. Surprisingly, it is possible to gain a living off of making your own entertaining videos and posting them on Youtube (with sponsored ads). The only problem with this is that your paycheck hinges on the view count of your subscribers. In order to be successful, you have to have a lot of subscribers, and constant content. (Speaking of which, I currently have a Youtube channel with tons of videos for your enjoyment! The link is in my sig.)

3. Freelance. I set up my own privately managed company and approach businesses saying that I can produce creative, engaging advertisements for them in exchange for payment. They get an ad that they didn't have to film, edit, and produce themselves, and I take home the big bucks.

I want to own a ranch that rescues horses.

I also want to be a SAR dog handler.
(I'm not sure if those two things work well together?)

That's me, up there on top http://www.victorianshowjumpingstables. ... 0025_1.jpg

Only that is a male.....
Where are you guys going to college? Becoming a professional jockey requires going to a college that has that.

I may start taking some college courses next year at a college that's close to me.

Meaning that's where she wants to be, in the future.
