what do you want to be doing in five years, ideally

[fodder]

seriously guys
you gotta know your dreams if you're gonna live em!!!!!!!!!!11



no, but really

[priceyfatprude]

Ben Affleck


I mean it's not like he'll still be married.

[bealeblues]

ideally i'd be fishing in a scenic little part of coastal north carolina

[fodder]

it's disappointing to find out that all of the cool actors are scientologists

[Deviate]

masters degree under my belt
teamed up with a great writer
telling great stories
directing film after film with lots of money backing me
zooming around the world


-st.

[fodder]

oh deviate must you be so vague

[fodder]

what kinda great stories

[Deviate]

i enjoy being vague.

stories of magical places
and mythical leaders
stories of internal struggle
and honest life
of jealousy
and hate
and love in a world where we are taught to destroy beautiful things

but mostly
stories of silenced voices
screaming onto film
in images
of our fears
vunerabilities
and inner most human connections.

-st.

[dinzdale]

That's nice.

[Deviate]

hey, Bonglemunch, you're creeping me out.

-st.

[bealeblues]

AAARGH !!!

[trisherina]

Five years is not long enough to realize many dreams, except for perhaps the one I have that I can't realize: to have another child.

My dream is living the journey, not the destination.

[beckstra]

Preaching...to maybe fifty or so kids...every week...maybe more kids than that...and getting paid to do so.

[danh]

Hopefully I'll have finished grad school and be ready to join the real world.

hopefully.

[Hermione]

in five years I will be finishing college and entering law school

[laughingbuddha]

Earn enough to go back-packing around the world without a care... ah that would be life :)

[AllegroNg]

In 5 years I'd like to be doing.. JM J Bullock!

And I'd like to have a good feel of which Masters program I wanna try.

[Red Princess]

having a vacation

[ambo]

i hope i'm not wearing depends
:(

[Coffee]

A guest was viewing this thread...never saw it before. This idea is worth revisiting.

Me:
Struggling to make ends meet doing creative and community supportive things while raising a beautiful child and partnering in all things with a fabulous inteligent beautiful creative supportive and funny wife.

[Willow Sylph]

Agreed, Coffee. :)

I'd like to be OUT OF L.A.
Hopefully in a house of my own, not in an apartment.
My son will be sixteen by then, so hopefully I'll have eyes on the back of my head by then!

[nycwriters]

I miss DanH.

[Zaftig]

I hope to have another child.

[Willow Sylph]

That is an admirable goal, pricey. I wish you the best in your venture. :)

[priceyfatprude]

Thank you, Willow darling. I feel one must have goals in life. :)

[Spicy Jack]

Pillaging, plundering, taking over small continents...now all I need is a boat...argh!

[nycwriters]

Then you both will love this when it gets released in November ... it's getting some great reviews. (http://www.atari.com/pirates/pirates/home.php?lg=1)

[Hermione]

... starting my first year at Yale Law School.

[imdrsmooth]

I hope to still working hard in the tv industry and able to purchase a house.

[joppa.gal]

I'd like to be free of debt- free of this "American DReam" vicious cycle that our nation seems to be caught in...

leisurely buying on credit for entertainment. :mad:

NOT my idea of living.

I want to be able to shoot freelance and use my skills as a vehicle for travel. Shawn and I make a great tech+creative team that could do great work together wherever we go.

AAAnd I want to reproduce. I'm the only one left in my family. *brother passed two years ago* So I'd like to start the kids coming ASAP.

boning the old lady on a beach somewhere

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

No way..

I'm telling the Old Lady!!!!

[madasacutsnake]

I'm on hold until all the horrid legal stuff is settled one way or another. After that I will breathe out and reassess. I was accepted into Uni as a mature age student (Arts/Law) but, to be eloquent, I dunno bout it.

We're looking at adopting from another country.

I like selling tablecloths.

So maybe I'll be a student lawyer with three kiddies, one white, two black and lots of tablecloths?

OMG! I'm stupid or tired or both -- I read this as "boring the old lady on a beach somewhere". :D

Of course, technically it still "works" -- wink, wink nudge, nudge

As in.....

Oh, never mind. I'm definitely stupid and probably tired!:cool:

[madasacutsnake]

is how I read it.

[Zaftig]

That's scarey. . . .

Ya see what I have to put up with?? I'm obsessed with having babies and he's obsessed with the process of making one!

[Clytie]

ideally....id like to be breathing

[melissa]

Alive, happy and healthy. Kind of where I am now, but more established in my post-college life. I think this company that I'm working for is a good one and I think I'd like to eventually move out of staffing into another area in the company. I hope that my relationship (which is 1 year old) is still as wonderful in 5 years as it is right now. I'm pretty happy and I feel really good about where I am right now.

[madasacutsnake]

You can be a mature age student if you left school more than two years earlier, so theoretically, you could be 16 and a mature age student.

[xfox]

I attended the school of hard knocks and graduated. I want to go to one of those seminars where one learns how to manage multiple tasks. Maybe I can get my desk cleared off.

Maybe learn Flash, too.

And, pay off my new car.

[Spicy Jack]

so if the pirate thing doesn't work out for some unfortunate reason, i would hope in five years i would have saved up enough to buy a dwelling as i refuse to rent much longer. then again, i'm not sure how easily I can save up, oh a $30,000 down payment. DAMN! okay, not five years. stupidcaliforniagrumblegrumblegrumble

In five years I AM going to be a pirate. Period....

...so much more practical. :o

[rmr]

In five years I hope to have overcome my issues with **** and ********** and I hope to have stopped dreaming of mice.

That’s about it.

[concentr8]

i be gonna be a boldie

It is more practical! Here: loot and pillage. Find a good fence for your booty..then use the proceeds to buy a house :)

I'm still voting for Johnny Depp. The other night I had to admit to my best friend that it was my first time watching Benny & Joon with the sound on. :(

[Avalon]

LOL
I was actually talking about the selling ill-gotten gains to kinda fence :p

I vote for Johnny Depp for you too.

*makes 'time out' sign with hands*

Avvy, do you really want my Gevalia coffeemaker? It's a 12 cupper, barely used. I will ship it out this week if you give me the word.
