I wanted to play in an orchestra.
My parents and music teacher were all supportive of the idea as well.
At the last second (in final year of school) I got cold feet on the idea.
I thought it was too risky and I was also growing increasingly concerned about the environment and environmental impact of human activities.
So I scrapped my muscial idea and studied environmental science.
Only problem was, there's no jobs saving the environment. So now I've got no relevant job and no chance to change over to an orchestral job because I'm too busy working minimum wage hours.

I never really had a clear idea but always answered astronaut because it was one of the things I'd like to do, but it's not really my Dream with capital D.

An incredibly shitty student, I've passed exactly 10 classes in over 5 years of college. If, IF I don't just off myself or otherwise ruin my academic career further I can look forward to 2+ years to finally get my engineering degree. I'll be 26 then, God fucking help me.

I guess I'd still like to be an astronaut but I'm not even an american so my chances are basically zero but for some reason I don't give up, I've convinced myself my life has some weird kind of narrative (my childhood was pretty promising actually) and that no matter what it simply cannot end badly, I understand this is just a defense mechanism but I can't help it. Realistically I hope to be a decent engineer and eventually start my own company so I don't have to be a wagecuck all my life.

long gave up any aspirations of working for NASA after exposure working in the government with it and other organizations.

I didn't want to be anything
When I turned 18 I realized I wanted to be into motorsports like F1 and WRC
I practiced on go karts and in my car whenever I could constantly for a long time
Then I realized this dream was gone and I would never accomplish it because you have to have a rich daddy and start go kart racing at 6 to have a chance
So I went to college and studied history as my pre grad school degree and graduated early
Then I got my O.D
Now I'm an unemployed NEET loser with debt from grad school in a 20 year old vaguely sporty manual car

>What did you want to grow up to be as a kid?
no one. people ask me quite often this question and when i think about my past i realise i didnt even thought who i wanna be. i just lived the life as if my life was gonna end tomorrow or some shit.

1. in my teens (12-16), i wanted to be le pro cyber-gaymer in counter-strike or some shit. i know it sounds really cringy, but i thought that's a good fuckin job to be sitting all day, playing your fav vidya and probably get paid more than average worker
2. programmer. but im too dumb overall, especially in maths and absolute lazy sack of shit.

>What are you now?
no one
>What do you want to be in the future?
1. a PC specialist (no, no that one who just knows how to install antivirus and that's it) that really knows how to fix each issue in windows OS and fix PC components, to know how they work with each other, how to fix them and so on. sadly, that's pretty low paid job.

2. car mechanic. want to be that one guy who knows everything about cars and knows how to fix them properly by himself. do want to know how to tune your car - engine, transmission etc.

3. graphic designer. the one who works with software (photoshop) to make designs for ads, websites, software, apps, etc.

4. electronic music producer. i want to know how audio works (speakers, microphones, headphones, PC audio files, synthesizers) and able to master synthesizer, DAW to make masterpieces (atleast those that sound good to me). shit requires lots of theory, practice and even shitty easy electronic music requires some knowledge to produce something real high quality.

5. photographer and/or video maker. love nature scenery and cars. love seeing some person's great video filming packed together with great soundtrack or w/e

As a kid I wanted to be a blacksmith. Something that'd let me make awesome swords, shields and other bits of armor.

As of now I work a comfy job that let's me play games at work starring dudes in armor with awesome swords.

I wanna move to IT and get a comfy pay rate so I can just live a comfy life. Maybe move up the ladder and get paid absurd amounts of money for nothing too difficult.

I can't do math past calc 1, and even then I can barely do calc 1. So sciences and engineering are out.
I tried programming and I couldn't understand that either.
I tried chemistry and almost failed that too.
I went to tutoring sessions, office hours, and study groups so people can't accuse me of not trying to actually understand and learn the material.
the only reason I didn't completely fail my first year was because I had to resort to cheating on my finals.

I don't hate history, I actually think it's interesting.
I just don't like how people keep putting it down as being useless.
Once engineering and medicine are all over run by thousands of faggots there isn't going to be anyone left who reflects on past decisions in order to decide the best course for the future.
Philosophy is going by the wayside and so is history.
No one gives a shit because they think it all happened in the past.
In reality is because of those past events that we are where we are now.

Honestly I think I should just go into teaching. I think I'd help me as a person and I think I could actually get kids to understand that there is more out there than the STEM meme.

You just gotta stick with something. (Almost) nobody understands programming from the beginning. It's alien and cumbersome for everyone for the first months. It takes years before it really starts to make sense to you.

damn, i keep reading how people just cant wrap their heads around calc 1 no matter how 'hard' they 'try'. I wonder what it is? not trying to humble brag but calc 1 was pretty simple to me and I am a terrible student.

STEM might be a meme but a liberal degree is a certified joke.


I agree history is great, im a huge history buff but good luck finding a job like that (in teaching), seriously -- no flame. its very competitive because nobody knows what else to do with the paper-weight degree.

If I were you I would drop out from uni and go to trade school as a machinist or welder and make some decent chunk of change, entirely by hand. Eventually you might take pride and even find passion in your work

Say what you want about the marines or the U.S. military in general, the pay is good and I get good benefits like free college.
After my 4 years of active duty I might make vidya ad a hobby, I also would like to pick up beekeeping.

it's less than 500 bucks, you can find PCs for under a hundred if you really tried
