View Full Version : Where do you see yourself in five years time?
Where will you be, or where do you hope to be five years down the line?
You can be flippant with your answer if you like and say for example you want to be ruling the world (although you'll have to wrest it away from my grasp first) or alternatively you can be realistic and say what you hope to have achieved or what you'll be aiming for, or even what you'd be doing in an ideal world.
So...
Will you still be at school, or college or university?
Will you be plugging away at job or perhaps contemplating a new one?
Will you be settled down with a family of your own?
If you could be anywhere careerwise in 5 years time just what would you be doing?

I'll either be in college in Florida [which I don't want to happen, being Florida I mean] or hopefully working as a character designer for cartoons or even better a voice actress for one of the shows.

I will be in college. Will also work a couple of "idiosyncratic" jobs on the side, hopefully become a mod at TZ when I mature and fit qualifications, dodge housekeeping who seek monthly payment, probally still fight, and still struggle to keep my girl.

Hopefully, if everything goes according to plan, I will have paid off my 2004 Toyota Solara and I will have saved up enough money for a down payment on a house. That is my goal in 5 years: home ownership!:)

After just obtaining my BA in communications from App State, probably studying international business at Johnson and Wales as well as real estate at a community college on the side, then scouting places to move to in New Zealand while I run my international land trading operations :) (since it's the best place to live now that our political system has deteoriated into a media run puppet show). I'll put marriage and all the other people stuff off 'til I'm settled, secure, and wealthy thank you.

My girlfriend wants to get married once she finishes grad school in about a year and a half. So I'll probably be taking orders from someone 6 inches shorter then me , 80 pounds lighter then me, possibly with a rugrat or two biting my ankles.
And consoling my mom on her promotion to "grandma".

I'll be 26, hopefully done all my post-grad work (if what I'm planning on doing stays that way), and with a steady job and a place of my own.
Optimistically, I'll also be in a comfortable relationship, and planning a marriage soon.

:evil: In 5 years I will make up one fourth of a unique quartet that will be in the beginning stages of world conquest. we will have pioneered inventions that some of you might not have ever dreamed imagianble such as the light saber and the mobile suit. All forms of goverment and law enforcement will be non existent. 5 years from that time we will populate 4 individual planets, having exhausted all use out of earth, yet still keeping it under our watchful eyes. The most beautiful women on this planet shall vye for eligability to migrate to these planets. all that do not fit in the beautiful pile shall have to find other qualities and abilities that makes them special enough to come with us. Only the most trustworthy of males will be enlisted in our vast army, everyone else shall be left on earth. Hear my call and all shall know the rule of The Order!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil:
