Title: When You Are Older...
Post by: The Blue Toad on December 20, 2005, 08:00:57 PM
The commonly asked question:  what do you want to be when you grow up, and why?  I'm not sure if this has already been discussed in another topic or not, but I'm giving it a shot anyway!

Okay...okay okay okay...I am thinking that I would like to be a writer when I'm older, mainly because I simply love to write (obviously) and I  have quite a few story ideas in my head.  The stuff that I write in the Storyboards section is not very good, I know.  If I put more effort into my stories, though, I'm hoping more people will read them (*clears throat*).  Okay, that about wraps it up.  Because otherwise I have no idea what I want to be, and I'll just have to let destiny take the wheel.

In a big way, I don't really care.

If I were less oblique, then no one would like my answer, so ↖ will work. I'm the first one to say it, anyway.

Am I the only one who caught that double-entendre? ;)

In all honesty, while being a kid again would be fun, there are pros and cons, so... :P
I used to know what I wanted to do/be, but now I'm not so sure. I've always wanted to do something with video games, and something in game design seems really enticing. More and more I've found psychology really appealing and thrive on that stuff. I imagine and I'd like to end up doing something using that, (game design IS possible) but I honestly have no idea what.

Everyone thinks I should be a lawyer, because I notice details that others may not. Sapph's got a new CT, BTW. After being a lawyer at my school for a "case", its actually pretty fun!

My English teacher is impressed on my writing ability. I could put up a sample for you, if you like.
My insperations are a plenty.
Mark Twain, Andrew CLements, Jerry Spinelli, all insperations of mine.

I would love to be a writer, but as a god at math, I could create landscapes and 3D models on video games.
Oh, when i grow up...

I want to not have to worry financially.
I also want to write a book.  Somehow I can't just say that matter-of-factly.  Every single day, I wake up remembering scenes from this one novel in my head, working out the kinks and order of scenes.  Even when I came here a few minutes ago, I was just sitting here thinking about it.  I've been imagnining it for two years now, and I'm scared that if I don't write it down, I'll never get it published or anything.  I'm crazy... but I still want to write this book.

I have a really good idea for a fictional story in my head right now.  I've had it for like... what, a year?  I don't want to write it down yet, though, for I really want to expand in my writing talent before I begin anything I really like.  Thus is the main reason my stories often lose inspiration as I grow older.  I read the other chapters that I had written a long time ago, and I have a terrible urge to go back and re-write the entire thing.  Do you know how annoying, time-taking, and frustrating that is?  Well, when you've written 50 pages of stuff you think needs improvement, then you'll know what I mean.  I had completely destoryed my story by an accident after deleting things, re-wording things, and possibly changing the entire outcome of the plot.  So... yeah! 
And remember those of you who would also like to become an author; to write well you should read a bit of literature everyday from a variety of authors so that your learning on expressing yourself through words will strengthen.  Such as Tolkien, Hemmingway, Paolini, Rowling, even Shakespeare (whom I still have not yet read).  To write well is to know good writing.
