Astronomy.
Work for NASA one day. If not, I'll probably be a goofy, fun-loving, college professor.

I honestly don't know what I want to be >: I might go for graphic design in college, but my friend who did take that major is having a hard time getting a job QQ~ If I don't do that I'll probably go for Astronomy like Phunkie :D And dream job would probably be animator or someshizzle.
Edit: WAIT! I have a new plan. I shall travel to Korea, become godly at Starcraft, and become a professional player and waste my life on a computer, and retire as a GM... :D

Currently studying Physics.
I wanted to be an astronomer. But I realize, NASA is very strict on who they accept for their work.
A professor is demanding, because you constantly have to be researching something and hope that it turns out good lest you lose your sponsors.
A science teacher sounds fun though. But I would hate to grade papers and projects.

Wow, what a negative post.
lmao
Cheer up, man.
That's like saying, why pursue anything if we're all gonna die anyway?
Go for what you love and stick with it. (Or go with what you're good at.)
Don't listen to the cynics.
Chances are, if you're doing something you like, you'll excel at it. Just 'cause you're passionate about it.

That's a bit naive owo.
In the business world, passion doesn't get you places most of the time.

Never naive.
But honestly, if you're doing business with someone and you're not optimistic that the other person will accept your offer, you might as well not try.
As a salesperson, you have to be enthusiastic with your crowd and portray your product as
the product people want to buy. I'm really not gonna be inclined to even try your product if you do not convince me.
That's being passionate. Even if you're completely lying to your audience and the product is a piece of crap.
Always keep your head high. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again.
For good only comes to the ones that wait.

A passionate lie?
And also, in the field of .. well, anything, there're going to be a lot of people who are just as passionate, if not more. Just being passionate about something doesn't guarantee any talent in it, or a job.

Passion, nonetheless. You're trying to sell your product.
And I edited my post.

Nothing in life is guaranteed. But why should that stop you from being optimistic and passionate?

I can still make it before you!
If I don't go with art I would choose, Directing/editing, or video game design.

It's negative, a bit. But I'm being realistic. I do understand what it means to love your dreams and to love living them though.
I get picky at the work I don't want to do at a job I would love to do. Like a player would love the idea of being paid to play video games and review them, but would hate having to play crappy games all the way through and write about it.
Well, not every job is perfect, I guess.
