If wishes were pennies

Nicked from a Heronwise direction

Imagine you had all the training and skills (and general life situation) you needed to take your ideal job. You don't have to do it for the rest of your life, just 5 or 10 years if you want. What would you pick?

My Top 5 (no particular order)

1. Philosopher to the stars.
2. Programmer
3. Financially well-off perpetual student
4. Rock star
5. Writer

If given another choice, I'd add:
6. Rich and unemployed

um...

i'd like to be an artist doing a mix of stuff, whether it's embroidery, painting, sewing, drawing, jewellery..

being a writer i think would be good, but best if i was still in english classes so i could be properly criticised and have strict deadlines, otherwise i just wouldn't do anything. and i wouldn't want to write novels, just books of little short stories..

i'd like to be a travel writer and get paid for it so i could go and see everywhere i wanted to.

part of me (the vain "look-at-me" part) wants to be a model and have other people dress me and take photos of me in pretty clothes. i would *love* that.

and because old dreams never die and this was my dream for a long wistful time: an actress.

oh, i wouldn't mind being a costume or stage set designer, either. mmm, clothes.

running my own shop would be good.

or someone who gets paid to read books and then have big long discussions about them. oh god, that would be so good.
