As I [very] slowly begin my job search for my post-graduate school career, I've been thinking a lot about the various answers I've had throughout my life whenever I've been asked what do you want to do / be when you grow up? My initial, smart-ass response is generally "I'm never going to grow up", but I've also gone through a myriad of other responses in my 29 years on this earth. My interests have been ever-changing, and my attention span is pretty short, so it's a pretty random, eclectic collection [as are most things in my life, really]. So below you will find the 30 jobs I would love to do if time, money, qualifications, location, etc. were not factors. Hey, a girl can dream.
30 dream jobs:
- teacher
- first female Monday Night Football sideline reporter [this was when I was a wee tot and there were no MNF women]
- SportsCenter anchor
- travel writer
- travel photographer
- sports photographer
- journalist
- artist [this got shot down when it became apparent that I have zero artistic abilities]
- own an independent bookstore
- sports agent
- lawyer
- social worker
- pretty much any position with a foundation [fundraising / event management / monitoring and evaluation / etc.]
- superintendent of the Boys' Home
- director of community service / servant leadership at a middle / high school
- dorm parent at Baylor
- book editor / publisher
- sports broadcaster
- owner of the Atlanta Braves
- pediatric oncologist [too bad I don't really like science]
- pilot
- novelist
- professor
- drummer [unfortunately, my musical talent might actually be worse than my artistic ability]
- chef
- forensic pathologist
- crime scene investigator [I've watched too many episodes of Criminal Minds and Bones]
- FBI agent
- director of an NGO
- something that allows me to travel extensively while still being paid [this is really what I'm gunning for, so let me know if you have any suggestions!]
And there you have it. Wish me luck as I try to figure out the next phase of my life!
woo pig.
