I want to go into music journalism after I finish high school and college. Either that or computer technology. Like web design or something like that.

What I would really like to do but is near impossible is create a really cool band with the electric harp. The only thing that I enjoy doing in my life is playing the harp (and listening to music) but its so limited in a certain sense. I play celtic music which can be really fun but I would like to make it a "cool" instrument if that makes any sense. I dont actually have an electric harp but if I find a band I will get one (which is never).
Since that is not happening I will most likely just play at weddings and celtic festivals. That wont get me enough money alone so I would either have to teach or get some other horrible job that I hate.

Yeah! How can someone have made some albums AND be attractive?!
I really can't fathom what you meant by that.
Fevers and Mirrors is the place to start with Bright Eyes. Work your way backwards from there.
I'm currently doing English at London, and I'm not too sure what I want to do afterwards. Well, I'm certain that I want to help people in some way, and that I don't want to be in the same job forever, so I'm thinking of starting out with some sort of youth work, and then working for a charity, and eventually ending up as a teacher. A few of my teachers really helped me, and I'd like to do the same for someone else. I would also like to be a train driver for about a year, but I have a problem whereby I fall asleep randomly, and I don't think I'd be helping anyone if I did that while in control of a train.

Oh, stop being so melodramatic and accept that the bestselling album that you were told to like isn't the best one.
Of course I want Young And Hopeless to make her own decision, hence me advising which the best Bright Eyes album is. I believe I'm qualified to make this decision, having been listening to it for more than three years now, and my friends sharing the same opinion. Naturally, I'm not saying that everyone has to declare Fevers And Mirrors as their favourite Bright Eyes album - it's just that it clearly is a better album than Lifted.
With regard to everything being a big deal to me, I haven't posted anything involving the words "woah" or "Oh my God", which are rather demonstrative expressions. You have. ______

I'm currently studying to be a speech pathologist, specializing in stuttering. It's gonna be alot of work...i have to go to grad school for several years cause New York State has real high standards. I made this decision because I honestly have struggled with stuttering my whole life. I'm much better now and most people don't realize I have a problem until they really know me or maybe i go through stages with it.
but i jsut want to help people in my situation and one thing that i think is important is to encourage high self esteem in these people...because thats something i lacked.

I just spent four years working my arse off to finish my degree in graphic design, but now I don't know what to do.
I'm doing casual work now to fund my travels which are a big deal to me, but actually I'm delaying getting a proper job because after four years the only thing I'm certain of, is that I don't want to do graphic design full time. Although there is an option of working with small record companies and doing your own thing as well.
Also thinking of doing another photography course and trying my luck at National Geographic.

I haven't really, they're just ideas of what I'd like to do. All I know is that I want to help people, and those are jobs in which, I imagine, I could do that. I'd like to be a psychologist more than anything, but I'm not good enough at science or maths to do it, and it's a bit late now, because I'm in the second year of my degree, so I couldn't really do a psychology one now even if I were good enough. I was talking to someone in the pub, though, and she reckoned I could do it if I just got an MA in psychology, which would be ace.
I wouldn't worry if you don't know what you want to do yet...I assume you're still quite young, and there's no reason you should know yet. You'd probably be quite dull if you did...I only know one person who's known what she wants to do for ages and is still an interesting person. The rest are terminally dull. That's why I want to do as many things as I can before I begin what I assume will be my final job.

I wanna be a sex therapist. I think i'd be really good because I'm all about psychology and I'm going to school for that. Evetually I'll get into the sex part because all my friends come to me when it comes to sex questions or whatever. And even before I lost my virginity I knew more about sex than my parents. Weird...
I'm also going to school for cinema studies, I think. I'm OBSESSED with movies, especially the old ones.
Also uh...creative writing. Because I'm a writer. I;m still a senior in highschool though. So I gots lots of time.
