I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up, asides possibly enter politics.
i wanted to be a politician when i was a late teen, early twenties.  the more i studied politics, the more i learned that i couldn't do the things necessary to be a successful one.
Hmm, I am a cunning bastard when it comes to it, and I am looking at doing it on a backroom basis, rather than shaking hands with the boring average morons and campaigning aspects of it.

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

No no, i want to be one of those aspies who is the guy who actually runs the show behind closed doors, i.e the person who holds all the real power. The only probable Aspie that is head of state that I know of is President Kim of North Korea, and I dont particuarly want to run a nation his way.

Amen to that.  I have a fairly political job now (I work in government), and you really can't do anything productive without compromising your moral principals.  Pretty much everyone in my workgroup feels the same way, so we live on the edge of burnout.  It sucks.  I'm hoping that with in a year or two my husband's company grows enough that I can quit and pursue music as a career.

Same, I fucking change my mind too much.   I never know what I really want to do in life, because it could always change.   

I don't even know what it means to grow up anymore.

lol at being a prostitute and married Janicka, sure that would work out well for you.

I would be too good at being a hermit.  Being alone forever would mean I would pretty much be in a dreamland 24/7 anyways, with nothing else to entertain me but my own mind.   Good way to go totally insane.

My brother wants to be a politician or a lobbyist (pre-law graduating this semester at FSU).   He is very social and great at lying and manipulating.

i didn't meant hermit without entertainment. i'd have TV and DVDs and books and music and Donald Duck comics and internet and computers... and drugs. lots of drugs. i'd grow weed and opium and manufacture Valium in my lab. drugs aren't illegal on Mars. :angel:

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.
