Your goal in life

What's your goal in life?!

When I mean goal, I mean what do you want to be when you grow up.(only for those who are under 18)

Just spoke with someone about this..

I would like to play professional basketball, but that isn't gonna happen.

So maybe Journalism? Or become a historian? I haven't really decided yet.

Don't give up...

Tim Duncan started at 14 years old basketball, so time is not waisted....

Hmmm yeah, I know. I have played for a year or so, but I don't have the height.

I'm not gonna give up, it's a great hobby, but, where I live, I don't have the facilities to play very often.

Apply for a job at CA....It's the only and the best solution....

@Craterus

I don't have the height either. In basketball, height doesn't count. The best examples: Earl Boykins and the best, Spud Webb.

I am well aware that a lack of height isn't essential. I was replying to your comment about Tim Duncan. Tim Duncan could start at 14, because he already has an advantage (height) and this would make developing the skills needed for a forward easier.

Another good example of a short player that proves height isn't essential: Allen Iverson.

Still, Professional Basketball would be great, and I'll definitely keep it as a hobby, but becoming a pro is undecided.

I would like to visit almost every country in the world. I'm just a sucker for history and culture.

Strategic Air Command then Politics, if I survive that long. That's as of now at least. Write some books too.

That's a bit narrow. Most people who go to University either do not know what they be when they finish or end up doing something completely different to what they thought they wanted anyway. 21 would make more sense in that regard.
Even still, I have changed paths in life several times now. It was really inevitable given the choices I had made and events which just got thrust upon me. You have to keep dreaming all the way through, otherwise you'll just pick a job at 21 and work in it till you die/retire.
