If you are aiming for a profession or would like to have one, what would it be?

I'm gonna be a video game designer. Plain and simple, because I love video games and stuff. It's very over-sought in this day and age, but I don't really care.

A scientist, preferably in CS or mathematics. Science rules and it seems like a more meaningful lifestyle to me than doing pointless applied work for some corporation.

I hope to make money in the stock market (yeah, right) so I can write my own code & do stuff with my family more instead of having to go to an office every day & write code for someone else. More likely, I suppose, is that I will end up working for some existing software company or else start my own.

Indie Game designer.

Though to be honest, it feels like I need to collect some more experience with programming in general before I invest times into such heavy projects, that might flop. Plus there's too many wannabe game designers out there, I don't want to wind up to be one of those people.

I'm shooting for a job in either local or online journalism.
So I can control the news.

I always wanted to do something in video games, be it programmer, music composer, or another part. If thats impossible, then maybe just musician.

Like almost everyone else, I've always been interested in video games. Be it story, art, concept, programming, whatever, I think that's what I'll end up doing.

I have no idea. This question has always been difficult for me, and that is why I envy most of you-- KP9000 not included.

I personally don't know exactly I want to do. I just can't really think of much.

I want to be President of the Great United States of America!

YEAH!

Failing that, a either an engineer or a programmer (outside of the game industry).

... I wish they had exported that game...

But, back on topic: either a programmer or network tech. Computers are only becoming more important, and nobody knows how to network. Nobody. Sure, you could set up a simple network in your home, but try networking an entire office and see how much sanity you have left.

As for programming... I've always been a little bit of a codemonkey, though I often limited it to messing around with premade programs, writing simple programs in Java, or messing with SWEPs in Gmod (LUA is... interesting, I'll give it that).

I have all my broken profession dreams. Video game designer, network marketer (thanks to Cynthia Banh for ruining my life), Graphic designer, and computer technician.

I'm thinking that my real profession would be a custodian if I get hired. People say I worked really hard.
