We all have a dream, or at least an objective (you suck at life if you don't have either of those, unless you fulfilled that dream >_>). I created this thread just for that. It might be something you'd like to be/come someday, a trip you'd like to do, or some place you'd like to visit. Please, avoid the ''I'd like to be the best (Insert sport/game/video game here) player ever'' type of dreams. As for myself, I have a dream, that I might be able to fulfill in the near future. It's a trip from Quebec to Vancouver. You might say ''well there's nothing special in that, a lot of people do that trip everyday!'' Well, I'm not talking about a Plane trip. Oh no, sir. And no, I ain't talking about a car trip eiter. HELL NO! I hate car trips, I always get sick within an hour when I travel by car. This video might give you an hint If you didn't watch the video, don't feel like it, or are just plain ignorant. I'm talking about a train trip. You see, I love train more than anything else, Including video games (excluding my GF, of course) The Quebec-Vancouver trip is very cheap, assuming you pick the basic seats (no ed-seats) and preorder your ticket at leats a week in advance. You could get it for 1300$ canadian. That include the return. This is a 4 days trip. What are your dreams? Tell us more

I guess it's no secret that I'm aspiring to become a great author. If you haven't realized that by now, then you obviously don't know that I'm addicted to fanfics. Anyhoo, I've read a lot of books in my life. Sure... most of them I can't remember, due to my horrible memory, but I can nearly safely say that the book series that inspired me to realize this dream is the Harry Potter series. (What a surprise...)
Sure, some people have almost no imagination these days when it comes to reading books, coming up with their own piece of literature, or coming up with something to entertain the masses via video, but that's why I want to become an author: To take the reader into a world of fantasy and imagination like none they have ever seen before.
The only problem is... I've been in a writing slump for quite some time now. I can't seem to be motivated to write down ideas for my fanfics nowadays because they seem so much better sounding in my head rather than on text. Not to mention I kinda lost my writing spark. However, after reading some more fanfics and actual books, I may find my spark again and continue my quest to become a great author. Wish me luck!

I also want to become an author someday

Dreams? Wel I have always had the dream to create an MMORPG like runescape, and when I finally get to A level and take computing I will hopefully begin to realise that dream: I don't mean to brag or anything but I have the title of; "the best in year 10 at ICT/IT" I am very proud of that fact and due to my distinction in year 9 get to take it this year too. My dream has started to come true as I am already storming ahead people in IT and have very good work (so says the head of IT) I really do wish to get an IT distinction again, this means I can take A level computing and finally learn the basics (and hopefully more advanced) skills in making a game such as Runescape. DivineAll: After seeing your script for the abridged series I think you could easily make it as a very successful author.

My dreams... Hmmm, well, I guess i'll just stick to anything I have in store for when im over 20 years old.
Well, go to a good college, live wih my gf, finish law school, take the bar exam, become defence attorney (or prosecutor), Propose to gf, marry her, live happily making sure if I ever do something wrong, ill make it right. (equivalent exchange way of life...) I have a pretty little kid-like thoughts of my future, but I plan to be the nicest person I can be (for nela's and my kid's sake). My objective really is to pretty much be a happy person, unlike now. That's all I got for now. Please feel free to flame.

Take over the world.
Seriously. I either plan to join up with my current girlfriend in her band, and hypnotize the world into following my orders using their music, or build a giant, invulnerable ball of technology (most likely coated with steel, several times over) and kill everyone, including my friends, and girlfriend. And myself. ;D
I bet there is at least someone here who has the same dream.

... Take over the world is fine.
The whole omnicidal maniac thing is just bat**** insane, though. If you're going on a murder spree, kill yourself first.

I have always dreamt of leading a nation through hard times, and lead them to greatness! Oh and MMA, that's probably the only dream here to be able to reach reality! And Molletman's and DivineAll's.

My goal is to get out of the poorness, not a job in a shop, and start studying Slavic languages, what I always wanted to do. For that I'll have to save, tho. x.x Oh, and finally get to full health. It sucks to have so many skin diseases. =/

1. Become a manga-ka... preferably for Kodansha or Jump!. 2. Die a quick death. 3. Not sink into total depression and end up in a mental institute. 4. Be able to live on my own. 5. Be a responsible person/monkee.
I'd write down "Do the impossible and EM Wave-Change," but that's just so wrong in so many ways... SO many ways... *evil grin*
And on Giga's note...
I'd rather commit suicide via painful, self-inflicted, EMO torture than build a giant steel ball and hypnosis device to kill everyone else... it's just too much work to build a giant steel ball and hypnosis device to kill everyone else.

Well, hypnotizing people is nice, but my objectives are very well in motion. I'm already at lawyer stature (disregarding my laziness, and REgarding my ability to make someone admit something with 20 minutes or less.. unless they are my gf, than it's 3 hours or less....), and im already studying for a bar-exam I wont be taking for another 9-10 years!
