I start college in 2 weeks at a community college. I plan to transfer, and get into computers, not sure exactly what though. I'm really excited/in a hurry to get out on my own.

Back to University in a couple weeks. Get my degree in Performance and
Media Art in the SIAT stream at Simon Fraser University, then get into the
graphic design field in one way or another. I'm already doing freelance
contract work, and I'm getting my business license shortly, so that helps.
Basically, keep moving in this direction I think. I debated film for a while
too, its pretty intriguing.

Two years at the University of Central Florida. Transfer to the
University of Florida. Get a degree in Journalism, with a minor in
Political Science and Broadcasting. During my time in college, start
working for school paper, and intern at local radio stations. Transfer
over into working for a city newspaper and a big name station doing
producing work. I hope to one day work my way up to Newsweek or Rolling
Stone.

Hopefully hit the lottery and start a heliskiing or other ski-related company.
More realistically, go to college, likely for materials engineering.

I plan on going to a tech school for nuclear engineering.
Then get a job at a hospital, and hopefully they will pay for me to go back to college to get a nice degree to up my standing in the hospital.

Finish my last three years of my b.A. in criminology, go overseas with the military for a tour of duty, then become a police officer. Do that for maybe ten years while I'm still young and stupid, hopefully get on the tactical team for a few years. Then once I get old and less interested in that stuff, or they try to stick me behind a desk, get out, get a teaching certificate, and teach high school til I'm old.

Graduate High school, hopefully with my A+ certification before I start collage so I can get a job in IT. Major/minor in some combination of Computer Engineering, Computer Sciences, Software Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Chemical Engineering.
I'd like to work in the tech feild, either working along designing and engineering computer components or as a software engineer. I'm slightly more inclined towards the former because there seems to be hordes and hordes of people getting into software. I may also work somewhere in the IT feild as either a freelance consultant or for a company.
Another option I'm interested in is somewhere in nanotechnology (hence the mechnaical and chemical engineering). The only issue I have with it is despite all the brillient designs and prospects for nanotechnology nothing has succeded as manufacturing these products is very difficult.

I'm thinking along the same lines here. I'm going to go to a college here in Illinois (Columbia or U of I) or Montreal. Then i'll probably form/join a band with some buddies. Do alot of drugs. Hopefully find someone to settle down with and have a couple kids.

You haven't graduated yet? I pictured you as being older than that.
As for me... Technical school. From there I hope to go into the telecommunication industry. Doing what, specifically, I'm not sure.

Heading back to the University of Rhode Island for my junior year. Graduating with my Bachlors in Business Administration. What I do after college is what I'm not sure of. I have been doing Army ROTC for the past 2 years, and this semester I have to decide if I'm going to contract. So I'll either be in the Army or out in the business world.

I don't try and guess anymore.
I was supposed to join the National Guard right out of HS, but ended up going to college. I was supposed to be out in four with a job, it took me 5 and I'm unemployed, I'm planning to join the Navy reserve, but who knows....
The thing is guys, make all the plans you want, but life has a nifty way of throwing you all kinds of curves that change the best laid plans in about 20 minutes.

I have one year left of High School and then I'm going to college to become either a Physician's Assistant or possibly a Speech Pathologist. If neither of those work, I'll try for a RN. Regardless, I'll be entering the medical field. A wife, nice house and car, and of course children after several years on my own. Work long enough and possibly move out west or just stay put here in PA.

Depending where I am living when I graduate high school, I would like to attend The University of Chicago, Chapel Hill, University of Miami, Princeton, UCLA, or USC. Get my bachelor's degree and then decide whether or not I want to attend law school, or find a job and eventually get my MBA.
If I attended law school, hopefully I could become a partner in my stepdads law firm, or do some sort of construction project estimates with my father if I got my MBA or stuck with my bachelors.

its going to go like this: Air Force ROTC to pay for Purdue, Indiana State U, ERAU, or the USAFA where i will train to be a commercial pilot. then 10 years in the USAF as a pilot of some kind. fighter would be fun, but multi-engine jets would give me the experience i would need to get a good job at a major airline. so basically, college, air force, civ pilot.

I intend to slowly drink myself into oblivion over my shame of what the internet has done to me. My once proud figure has been marred by AOL and text messaging. The greatness of Frost, Kipling, and Henley has degraded to "soup FTW!", "dudez sup??" and "hai 2 u!!1one!!"
I will fade into ignomity in the midst of these illiterate masses, and will eventually be completely suplanted by Spanish and Mandarin.
