To leave my room.
But no, I've always been a huge book worm so when I was little I wanted to be a children's author. I remember being made to read one of my stories to the entire school in year 4 (traumatised but whatever :tongue:). Now I want to work in History, and learn German fluently!
My aspiration is to find someone, settle down, and become a doctor after university.

Right now it's all about getting the grades to university firstly.

We shouldn't aspire to do things that are impossible.

That's awesome, I was a freelance writer last year to make a bit of extra cash. I was going to write a few children's books for a up-coming charity called Sickle and Me. Are you learning German through school/college/uni? I want to learn Spanish but I don't want to do it through the education system.

That's awesome! Good luck, I know it's competitive out there but we need more people like you :smile:
When I was young I wanted to become an author, but I would start writing and then never really finish what I'd started, so I gave up on that plan. Now, I would like to become a volcanologist and work somewhere like Iceland :yep:

I'd like to find a boyfriend as well :colondollar:

Yes I'm currently in year 11, studying for my GCSEs! My mocks in German went really well as I moved from a B on my listening to an A! I did actually want to take Spanish but I really do enjoy German, so much so that I'm the only one in my school who wants to do German A level (I have to get a bus to another school to learn it in 6th form :tongue:). That's so cool that you're writing for a charity, I hope it goes well for you!
No idea. No idea what's worth pursuing at the moment. Can't see myself settling down tbh, maybe settle down as a solicitor. Yeah i'm a bit lost with it all, what's worth pursuing?

I aspired to join the armed forces and last year I did that! :smile:
My main goal is to just be as happy and healthy as possible :yep:

Besides that, I want to rescue and adopt as many animals as I can throughout my life and also do more to raise awareness about MH conditions.

Pursue whatever will make you happy, it's not about money or pleasing your parents. Do something you will enjoy :smile:

Ahh that's cool, I'm in year 13 and I haven't studied Spanish since year 9 so I need to find a different way to learn it :tongue: good luck with your GCSEs, if you need any help just let me know! I'm studying English Language, Geography and Biology at A2 so I'd be able to help most with those subjects :smile:

I did that as well! I used to write on Wattpad. Once I started writing a story about a secret agent, it was getting a few thousand reads every time I uploaded a new chapter... but then at the 5th chapter I realised I didn't know the first thing about secret agents so I gave up :rofl: what year are you in? Have you looked at university degrees - what do you think you'll choose to become a volcanologist?

Have you heard of Decade Volcanoes? If you fancy taking a risk some of these places might go the way of Pompeii soon.

I know! We should open a decade volcano business.

Yes i'm getting ahead of myself.

Haha aww, at least you had a go though!

I'm doing a degree in Geoscience at the moment, and I'm hoping to do a Masters in Volcanology at Lancaster or Bristol afterwards :smile:
