my dream since I was 4....to be an actress. not a celebrity, I just love acting - and the stage and performing, so to get paid to do so (and be able to survive) would be awesome.

When I was in high school I had three dream careers

1: Scientist- Living it now. Medical research.
2: Cartoonist- Serialised for 1.5 years in a local anthology and gained recognition by my peers.
3: Japanese Teacher.

So there's only ONE dream career I haven't done yet. JAPANESE teacher... maybe for Primary school... Maybe that one can roll around until after I have kids...

my dream: to never grow up! ok so its not a job or a career, but still i don't want to grow up!

though i would love to be a nutritionist. started going to school for that before i moved up here, but not there is no school to go to here. for some reason they won't let me do chemistry classes by myself. wonder why?

I love my job. 17 years ago I would have loudly declared I would never be a SAHM, but now I know it was the wisest choice for me and my children. Finacially it is not good, but the rewards are more than I could have imagined.

More than anything else, I love what I do now for a living- technical illustration.

But my other "dream" careers have been:
Naturalist
Anthropologist
Veterinarian
writer
art/antique restoration

I would love to be a FBI field agent or a Honolulu police officer, which is opposite of what i do.

i think you should just plead the 5th right now.

I was informed that my input was desired here...

If money was never an object, if my health and wellbeing never were an issue (thanks US healthcare system...)

I'd travel the world on my bike etc and discuss philosophy, art, politics and theology with every different viewpoint I could. I'd live in sparsely populated areas as a nomad, hunting etc for myself and be as far from society as I could. In the words of Tyler from Fight Club-"In the world I see -- you're stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You will wear leather clothes that last you the rest of your life. You will climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. You will see tiny figures pounding corn and laying-strips of venison on the empty car pool lane of the ruins of a superhighway." My life would be something of stories, with everyone knowing a little about me, but no one person knowing the entire story.

I'd write my tales on toilet paper like Kerouac and write of the dangerous, wild side of life like Thompson. It'd be like Walden.

...I could only do that until I was so old, because life like that wears on the body... then I'd be a grand old hippy, the kind of woman everyone goes to for advice over hot tea and cookies, and leaves thinking "Gad, she's weird..." but you know... it'd make me happy.

Then I'd die, and my ashes would be scattered in the streams in my parents' WI woods, so I might always be a small part of the rich history of the place.

That would be my life if I had my way.

My DH has been dying for a reason to move there. As a professor of chemistry he would be thrilled to teach just one student. I could teach physics.
