RunnerGrad Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 1. Professor 2. Clinical Psychologist 3. Writer/Journalist 4. Zumba Instructor I am not qualified for any, but I am on my way to becoming qualified for #1-3. #4 will be for another lifetime. You could do #4 if you really wanted to. You just need to have a passion for fitness and dance, get your group fitness certification, and then your Zumba B1 license. I'm a Zumba instructor and a certified group fitness instructor, and I'm far from the best dancer out there, and I certainly don't look like the models for Zumba wear. But I deliver a fun, safe, effective class, and that's all that matters! Whatishistoryanyway and strawberryfrap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GandalfTheGrey Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 1. The person who taught the LOTR actors and actresses to speak the language of Middle Earth. Totes qualified, just born in the wrong decade. 2. Professor. Hope to be reasonably qualified at some point in my life. Need to get that PhD first. 3. Math teacher, any grade K-12. I guess I'm qualified. 4. Speech Pathologist in a children's hospital and/or cleft palate team. I'm about as qualified as one can be straight out of grad school, just need to hope someone's hiring. ravenray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadian Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up... :/ but if I could do aaanything... 1. Research scientist - maybe I can do this with enough work. 2. Film or video game music composer - I have no credentials in music, but I am a decent composer, so maybe a long shot. 3. Musician in a symphony orchestra - I haven't played my instrument in years, but I was once a top tier player in high school...also a long shot. 4. Author or journalist - I enjoy and have always been praised for my writing ability, but not even sure if I would really want this as a career. Bonus choice - Unemployed. It is the ultimate freedom. I dream of a society that doesn't require its citizens to fight and compete over life-sustaining tokens. Arcadian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
