Life is a pretty sweet fruit, SE++, but ya gotta have a goal if'n ya wanna score

So what do you want to do with your life SE++? Who's looking to be a movie star? Who wants to cure cancer? Who wants to be ruler of the universe?

I want to a biological scientist SE++! That's a pretty fun goal, right?


What do you want to be?
Alright mister what do you think you're doing
You call this a room? This is pigsty.
I want you to straighten up this area now!
YOU ARE A DIGUSTING SLOB!
STAND UP STRAIGHT. TUCK IN THAT SHIRT. ADJUST THAT BELT BUCKLE. TIE THOSE SHOES.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO WITH YOUR LIFE?!

    I want to design cars

    I wanna be the guy that says
    "I think this company needs a V10 sports sedan, because that would be cool"
    And then everyone would bustle along and make it

    and it would roar at the stars as it tears the asphalt from the earth

    Whether I can make a career out of it or just a pricey hobby, I've finally started to really look into becoming a pilot.

    University of North Dakota's apparently got a pretty stellar aviation program, so that's looking to be a big candidate so far.

    here's one I prepared earlier

    in 2018 I hope to be the owner of a small design studio staffed by people much more talented than me, swooping in twice a week to talk shit with my employees and art direct a photoshoot for a big name band album cover, spending most of my time looking after my son and daughter while my wife rehearses for an upcoming symphony.

    in 2018 I will probably be a midweight mac-monkey, working at a local newspaper with a boss like Jonah Jameson, going home nightly to look at photos of my wife and ask myself why she had to kill herself 6 months after our wedding.

    I am studying to be an archaeologist

    Will I be happy in this field? I don't have a goddamn clue
    sure, right now it sounds great, but down the line, who knows?
    But you never know until you do the damn thing

    But there is so much more I want to do in this life, but when will I have the time to do it?
    I don't have an answer for that either

    Also because of this thread I will probably have an existential crisis now

    well ok, you need to find something the redefines history, like the arch or something. Than you can do whatever the fuck you want. Just like indiana jones. I got the order wrong but maybe thats the difference between movies an real life...think about it.

    I'm not in bioinformatics yet; finishing up software engineering in a few months then switching to bioinformatics for my master's.

    My final undergrad project is applying the Cell BE to protein matching and it is way awesome.
