The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Currently I'm trying to actually use my EMT license and overcome the crippling fear of killing someone or ramming the bus into a pole on the way to a call.
So I'm working 3 days a week at a golf course and letting my certification rot like a shmuck even though I passed the state exam with flying colors in record time.

I wanna be a successful architect. Or I wanna do level design for a game company. Or an Anthony Bourdain roadie.
I am already working on the first one nonstop, too bad there is no work. I need to man up on some architectural competitions.
right, but how are you guys going about achieving these?
By posting about it on the Internet, duh.

But seriously, I'd like to get into public service. I suppose the first thing to do is prove myself valuable in my city, by working in a capacity that creates jobs and prosperity. Maybe I'll start a business. That would also be good for making connections.

I don't wanna kill anybody. I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from.

I want to be a lawyer
I am achieving this by going to law school and being on the law review
In all seriousness though, my "dream" at the moment is to quit my current full-time job and start up some of my own freelance web design work.
I am achieving this by quitting work (I resigned two days ago), and getting my things ready for a few projects I already have lined up for me after I finish my current job in 4-6 weeks time.
edit: Quitting was really hard, but once I did it I felt like a massive weight had fallen off my shoulders. Feelsgoodman.
I want to work on a unified social theory like the great thinkers of yore. Like Marx, or Weber or maybe Foucault.
But that's a pipe dream, really.

I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
And Disney World is nowhere in sight.
I want to have a job creating stuff. The fact that I can't get more specific than that is a big part of the reason why I haven't made any progress there.
I think sometime in the coming years I'll draw as much as posible, settle on a theme maybe then contact a family friend who can hopefully set some small show.

I've actually been thinking of going the EMT route for a long time. I went to nursing school but ended up deciding it wasn't what I wanted to do with my life.
My goal is to find out what the requirements are in my state to achieve EMT-B, and I'm going to achieve it by checking online and harassing some dudes at a nearby firestation tomorrow after work.

Hamlet will be Hamlet An ineffable tragedy of the human spirit that still resonates, even today.
I want to teach. My school may not be holding the teaching credential program during the spring though, and neither are any of the other colleges accessible to me...
So I may be boned for a semester?
Also I'm not sure whether I want to do single or multiple subject (basically it's a middle/high school vs. elementary school dilemma). I feel I know my subject very well and so could be valuable doing a single subject, but the need might be greater at the elementary level. Decisions
to accomplish this, i am looking at labels and buying more fresh foods!
learning to go the store more often is the hardest part, but man
good food is good to eat and good for you
i love it
Once you realize that 90% of the stuff you usually buy contains really disgusting and/or dangerously unhealthy shit you can't stop but read every label and the list of ingredients, every time, just to be sure.

pretty much what I know right now is that I don't want to make a career out of my current job (not that my current job is awful, it's just not what I want to spend most of my time doing)
