When I Grow Up...

[Kemosabe]

Actually considering going into politics. We'll see how things turn out.

[O hai im KAMIL]

I want to design games. Seriously. People might say that's childish but games have being a strong passion of mine and potentially bringing joy to millions of people because of something I was a part of seems well worth it I don't care about money, I want something that I like to do and this is perfect for me.

So does nearly every other 14 year old boy, trust me. I still wanted to until about a couple months ago when I decided it was completely stupid. I actually started emailing Jagex .

 

Someone has to make games, either that or Professional Stuntman/Special FX guy

[bros before hoes]

Potential Education: High School

Potential Job: JTF2 Assaulter (I'll be joining in the Infantry very soon.)

Why?: Because I can't see myself doing anything else.

 

JTF2 = Joint Task Force 2. An elite Canadian Special Forces unit responsible for counter-terrorist operations.

Oh snap.

 

Ive thought about becoming a doctor who works at an army/field hospital, but the Army chooses what you will be doing as a doctor. So I might just end up being a family physician-eque person instead of a surgeon.

CF can pay for your studies. You've only gotta do three years of service afterward.

 

So you'll be a general practitioner/family physician? My grandfather was one as well. Started up his own practice at one point.

 

edit: My living grandfather on my mother's side. Not the Korean War vet.

I'll see, it's still in the air right now. If I get a job there that would be amazing. Great pay, good working environment, and amazing pension.

If you think you can do it, go for it. Retirement will definitely be worth it. Ask my grandpa, lol.

Potential Education: At the moment, I think I'm going to try to get a PhD in Herpetology. I will probably also do an organ minor in college just because I like to play the organ and I may be able to make a little extra cash on the side as an organist at a church.

 

Potential Job: I will likely try to get a job at a major zoo or research university.

 

Why: I have always been fascinated by reptiles and amphibians and have been keeping some for about five or six years now. Finally, the laws on keeping reptiles, especially venomous snakes and large boas and pythons don't seem like they are going to get more relaxed any time soon. I would really like to keep some of these species eventually and having a job in herpetology could greatly help me get past those laws.

the future.. i've no idea what will happen, but i know this for sure, i'll be happy. even though my dearest friend is no longer with us..

sorry to say this Old Slammers, but my oldest & dearest friend, who i met online in 2001, has sadly passed away at the age of 70, :/

 

we met online years ago, after chatting somewhere out-there, he was from Oz, so we only met once, while he was over here visiting his family..

his name was Roy, but didnt act his age, lol he was more like an uncle to me more than anything, and he'd always been there for me, when Ex Bf's were treating me badly, in the past.

 

I miss him so much & it was such a shock to hear he had died.. and i just thought his internet had died,..not him!

 

(some of the Old Slammers may remember me talking about Roy, and that its not the same without him.)

I'm really not sure right now. Going into software engineering has been my plan for a while, but idk because I love languages as well and it'll be difficult to continue with them both.

 

But sticking with the original plan for now:

 

Potential Education: GCSEs: Eng Lit/Lang, Maths, Stats, Religious Studies, DT Systems, Triple Science, French, German, History. A levels: Maths, Further Maths, Physics and maybe French. Degree: Computer Science, ideally at Cambridge, although it's probably not going to happen.

Potential Job: Software engineer. Unsure what I want to be programming yet The computer games industry sounds like the most interesting atm.

Why: Because I love anything to do with computers. And I need a job that I find interesting or I'll have died of boredom before I'm 25.
