This has been my plan since 2014. :laugh:

1. Study International Relations and Strategy and International Security with Japanese at Exeter University (2017-2020).
2. Work on the side (2017-2024).
3. Partake in a lot of extracurricular activities in university (2017-2024).
4. Become fluent or at least intermediate in Japanese and Russian while in university (2017-2024).
5. Invest money in businesses for extra income in university (2017-2024).
6. Publish books and articles, both fiction and on political themes (2017-2024).
7. Get a Master's in International Relations (2020-2021).
8. Get a doctorate in International Relations (2021-2024).
9. Work a random graduate job until my dream job has openings if there are not any at the moment (2024-until they have openings).
10. Get my dream job (2024-after they have openings).

to become the boss
To become a radiographer
PhD in a particular area of law - I'm more interested in law theoretically/philosophically (rather than what I study atm :facepalm:) and I like jurisprudence. So it's a case of where that takes me because I'm not sure I want to do what I used to want to do after my undergraduate degree...

I think you're going to have to reassess that goal. You certainly won't become fluent (or even reach an intermediate level) in either language (let alone two) if you're only studying it as a minor element of your degree. If fluency is your goal then you really should do a joint honours degree (50/50 split) in IR and one language.
Complete ACA

Get promotion

Move to another company (specifically different industry to diversify my experience early on) - move to another part of the country, preferably London or at least back to the southern part of the country.

Continue moving up the ladder

Hopefully end up in a role where I feel passionate about what I do and the vision of the organisation.

Invest money in shares and a house

Retire.

Short term: get an offer for a job (or internship) in at least one of the fields I'm interested in - finance, technology, consulting etc.

Long term: rise through the ranks of a career or eventually start my own technology company. Possibly do an MBA or some other advanced degree. Move around the world as I did as a kid again.

Can't really be certain about where I'll end up anymore now that I've experienced one recruiting season.. the world is completely unpredictable.
