what job do you want to pursue when you grow up?
for me, i want to be, in this order:
1. athlete (football or golf)
2. sportscaster/writer
3. photographer
4. architect
5. video game designer

golfer. im pretty good.

I'm never growing up, so I won't have to worry about it

I would like to do Marketing, or i could always go to law school and be a lawyer.

TC, I worked as a sports writer for our university newspaper for about one week, a little over a month ago. And... I learned that I was completely off the mark in terms of what I was expecting. I quit not long after.

Let me say this: If you really want to be a sports writer, you have to be willing to let your heart break every so often.

I'm with you on this! I cant say I dreamed of being a Customs Compliance Specialist when growing up, but thats where my career path led me. I still refuse to mentally grow up, however, and will still be playing MLBPP and other video games as long as my fingers still work. Much to my wifes dismay...

I want to be an Alaskna crab fisherman. Ever seen Deadliest Catch? That's what i want to do. Deadliest job on earth. Lose a man a week and a ship a year on average. Big, Big $$$ in it for those who catch the most crab. I do want a college degree, and as far as i know, you can't get a degree in that, so i want to be an athletic trainer (think beach volleyball )kidding

of course you're kidding...

handicap?
clubs?
i love taylormade clubs, and my favorite club is my cleveland CG14 48 degree pitching wedge.
got it for my birthday, gotten me many great shots.

i do actually want to get a degree in that though. I'm only in 8th, so it could (and probably will) change.

yeah, i'm also in 8th, so i have time to prepare for football tryouts in high school.
hoping by that time, my growth spurt will have finished, though i've been told it just started...

I wanted to be an engineer just like my father, so that is what I became! (and not the type that drives the train) I knew it since I was in the 7th/8th grade. I used to love to play on my dad's 286 computer with 64k of RAM, and 512k hard drive. I would hack this text based basketball game to make players like Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. It was a lot of fun. So what I am today is a controls lead engineer respsonsible for developing algorithms and software to run a natural gas fueled engine.

nice!
see, some people get their dream job!
and nice hacking...

i cant kill animals with a pure heart, no matter how much it pays. poor little crabs...

pretty much the same thing for me.

While, yes, you are catching the crab for the purpose of killing and eating them, the fisherman don't do it. The stay alive in a holding tank and are sold to distributors in Alaska. If the fisherman killed the crab on the boat, they would go bad quickly.
