I want to

Decide for definite what I want to do in University ( that needs to be done scarily soon ).

Finish highschool with good grades and without being hated by anyone.

And start university with a bit more confidence than I have now.

 

Being happy would also be a good goal.

What do you have in mind?

I thought science teaching for ages. But thinking about it now I'd hate to be year in year out going over the same stuff.

Maybe something in genetics or neurology or forensics...?

 

The annoying thing is that they are all in the same course ( you break off into the different modules after the first year )

When I'm filling out my form for applying to the universities I really need to write down more than one course D:

 

 

 

it's less confusing than I make it sound :|

Survive IB, part deux, survive IB, part trois, be good at mathy stuff, and *gulp* college applications. :dead:

 

Make money. Somehow. Working on that one.

 

This morning I was seriously considering making a "Where's Sara?" thread.

Looks like I don't have to now. :awesome:

YouTube - Glentoran 1-0 Portadown BURROWS GOAL[/url]

 

Totally agree. If Rooney had scored that goal then everyone in the English press would get over excited with!

I had a chance to study either genetics or neurology or forensics (biological stream), but instead I choose geographic science as it's what I like the most. I think you should just go with whatever you like, passion will help.

 

Forensics sounds cool though :wacko:

It still hasn't hit me that I'm leaving high school in just over 6 months, so I'm not on the stage of knowing what my passion is :lol:

 

 

I should just go in a totally other direction and study something like Folkore and mythology :surprised:

Do well in school. Improve on my clarinet. Learn a new instrument. Find new bands. Be less grumpy and sarcastic.

To go to Australia this April for graduation.

To save up to have that classic UK-France-Swiss trip by the end of the year.

That would cost me around RM12 000.

 

So that's actually quite ambitious of me tbh :blank:

That's quite normal tbh.

 

I've gone through my high school thinking that I'm gonna do medicine later on. I ended up doing a totally different course. The best decision I've ever made.

 

So don't worry :nice:

I am gonna go with the most common... lose weight.

Really? Aww! I'm so flattered :cheesy:

Pass the second year and find a year placement in a IT related job for my 3rd year :(

 

 

PS. Y'all can surf on my couch, Liverpool will show you a good time!

finally enter a uni to study music to become a music teacher (not a lame one, but a coool one)....I've been thinking of this for so many years now and I should finally try it.

this is my 3rd chance and I hope I won't waste it again

 

I should start getting prepared for it

finish my 2nd year, ace my summer classes, and LIVE HEALTHY :dead:

you might have to try a lot of things before you finally know what you want to do.....I'm one of these cases....first I tried history and musicology which wasn't the right thing (well history wasn't)...now I have only 6 months of my apprenticeship (in a music shop) left and I am sure that this isn't the thing I want to do either...I will have another chance of trying something this summer or later....I hope I will finally start something that I enjoy doing and that is the right thing for me....I am still so lost sometimes when it comes to this question...I've been considering to become a music teacher for some years now, but I never tried it I don't even know why....there are so many people (family, friends) who tell me that I should try it, because they think I'm a person who is able to motivate kids to make music or to give music a chance....and I really want that....it'd be cool if it worked

 

I finished school 4 years ago...and some people can't understand that I still haven't found the right thing to do....they say I am hard to satisfy...I don't think so...I reckon there are a lot of people in this world who don't enjoy what they do, but they don't dare to try many things...I don't see a point in spending my life doing something I don't enjoy....it can feel like a waste of time....this is what I learned in the past 2 years

 

ok I stop "talking" now...

You should try to and do music teaching, especially if so many people who know you well think that it would suit you.

I say I'll be in the predicament as you for a while. Even just in high school, I gave up art for my junior exams and had to wait two years before I could do it again. I will be like that in College, I'll try to make a good choice and have no regrets :lol: ...which is a lot easier said that done.

I should be grateful that I don't find school that bad and if I have to go back again and again for the next few years I won't mind that much.

Pass exams in good marks and go to uni

Nope no, not having that, doesn't exist.

Almost all my friends have no idea what they want to do with their careers. Some are doing degrees and racking up huge debts just for the sake of it. Others are working menial jobs until they figure out what they'd like to do, which always carry the danger of getting stuck in that kind of job forever. The thing is, when you're growing up most people believe that they'll just walk into some job after they finished their degree/training and that they'll be able to do their dream job and live happily ever after. It's rarely, if ever, that straight forward. Every time I go into a shop or go to the bank or whatever, I always wonder if the 30 year old cashier thought he/she would be doing this when they were growing up, or if this would be their career in life. It's a bit depressing yeah, but perhaps the way you're doing things means you won't end up like the majority of people doing something they don't want to, and ultimately you'll be happier than most of them.

not having what? Cool music teachers? True....that's why I want to become one:cool3:

:uhoh:

This is exactly the stuff I've been thinking a lot about today. I wonder how many people out there do what they really want to do. Must be the minority.

which is a good thing actually eventhough it kinda sucks, because there must be many people out there who are not satisfied with their jobs. A good thing because I am sure that there are jobs nobody would love to do, but they have to be done. That's why I consider myself as quite lucky, because I can actually do whatever I want to do if I believe in it and work on it....there are too many people out there who are not that free in their decisions, because of the circumstances they live in...

 

I just don't want to accept that I have to do something I do not really want to do just to earn money. I know it is much easier saying that than actually doing it, but here must be a way..I've been trying for almost 4 years now and I am still not where I want to be.....and I still believe that I will find something I totally enjoy doing one day...I had a discussion about it with my mum this afternoon...I know my parents are just worried about me, but sometimes it can be quite annoying when they keep saying I will never be satisfied and I obviously just can't enjoy what I am doing and the job/career still has to be invented....which is not true

 

sorry if my english sucks.....but I find it really hard to explain in english what I want to explain...

I'm graduating this year and I still have no idea what I want to do. I mainly went to uni because I wanted to move out of my parents' [not the best idea, I know]. I now feel like I'm doing the wrong degree even though I get good marks and I enjoy most of my lectures.

 

One of my jobs is quite well-paid and I think it will be difficult to get a better-paid job when I finish uni. Keeping my job isn't really an option because my workplace couldn't offer me more hours but I'd find it quite frustrating if I had to accept a job that pays less than my current salary.

 

I'm thinking about doing a Masters or applying for a graduate trainee programme.

Mmm... :)

 

Start successfully my master degree in chemistry.

Save a lot of money from my classes.

Learn to drive properly (I have a license but I'm really bad).

Get fit (going more often to the gym and try a new sport).

Get healthier eating habits.

Learn to cook.

 

I think that's it.

get into a school to study. anything.. i'm desperate.

 

to find a smaller and cheaper flat.

get a life basically.

Is this about Nick's goal for the year or everyone's? I thought it was about Nick's.
