Title: What did/do you do with your life?
Post by: pilot on April 08, 2011, 02:26:58 AM
I was reading this guy's article http://drymeaning.com/deciding-what-to-do-with-your-life/

-Its about deciding what to do with life (you dont have to read it, if you choose to, finish this thread first)

And it got me thinking.. What the hell do i want to do with my life?


So here is a question to all members.

Q)What do you plan on doing with your life? or..

Q)What did you do with your life? Any regrets?

If everyone replies and answers i think this will be a pretty cool and open thread

Q)What do you plan on doing with your life?

To become one of the greatest animators & cartoon creators of all time.

Q)What did you do with your life? Any regrets?

Spent a good 10 years doing cartoons, started my own web design company in 2004, graduated from college. Bought my dream car (Mustang) and moved to tropical Florida.

Regrets... maybe a few but not many. I guess my main regret is that i waited 6-7 years to learn how to animate traditionally when i should of started in 1999, by buying 1 simple book. (The Animators Survival Kit)

Q)What do you plan on doing with your life?

Graduate from college with a degree in film and become a successful indie director, as well as a good father and husband.

Q)What did you do with your life? Any regrets?

Thus far, created numerous short films, half of which are sub-par, and taken control of my actions in an attempt to be known as the guy who will "give the shirt off his back". I regret not having caught two epileptics as they fell during seizures, as well as disowning some friends. Other than that, not many regrets.

Q)What do you plan on doing with your life?

Well I guess I'm done keeping the secret that I'm in the military, so I plan on you know... going to Basic and AIT, going to a state school out of state, preferably somewhere warm and fun like Cali :3, majoring it either nursing, biology, or premed, then continuing onto medical school regardless of which of those majors I choose, and of course moving on to be a resident and eventually a doctor... Other than that I want to get married, have kids, live a happy, comfortable life. I'm probably only going to serve my current 8 year contract- as of the 23rd of next month I'll have been in the military for half a year now. Thats the current game plan at least...

I also have a bucket list- stand in four places at once (the corner where Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico all meet), go to every state, visit every continent, see the northern lights, go rock climbing, sky diving, surfing, and scuba diving~ :3 And cliche as it sounds to anyone aware of my favourite movie- I want to witness a miracle.

Q)What did you do with your life? Any regrets?

So far I've gotten through school with high honours, and advanced classes, done a lot of volunteer work, and avoided getting myself into too much trubbles~ :B Aside from this past year I was on a perfect tract... I do regret how horribly I've screwed up this past year... My grades are in the dumps, I'm just hanging by a thread when it comes to my functions class, but I do have the most amazing supportive friends even if they seem to bring on a lot of drama they also are always always there when I need someone to have my back... I've done alright for myself thus far...

Post by: Adelaide on April 27, 2011, 04:24:18 PM
I don't wanna know what goes on in your room, TK. I'll save hacking into that for another soldier.

What I really wanted to do was be a 68 W (Medic basically) but they didn't need more of those and due to my high score on the ASVAB they put me in Military Intelligence.

25 M Woulda been fun too :B Thats Multimedia Illustrator- "Multimedia Illustrator produces graphic artwork, drawings, cartoons and other visuals for use in training manuals, newspapers, reports and promotional materials. Illustrators may also work on signs, charts, posters, TV and film/video productions. They may also produce maps and graphs for combat operations." :3c Artsy~!!

But I'm cool with my job, it's pretty cool beans.

being a man doesn't mean you try to be gator food
