Rogue15 Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 This is a list of goals I intend to achieve by the time I reach 24. In order I'm intending to complete these goals in from first to 'to be continued'... Read the entire NIV version of the Bible Get a part-time job at either a mall, rollerskating rink, theatre, or movie rental Go to an A+ Training Course Build my own computer for gaming Attempt to get a girlfriend Pass an A+ Certification exam Get a high-paying job in either networking or building computers Leave the house and move into an apartment. Take a trip to Costa Mesa California to watch the first showing of Star Wars: Episode III with Redwing and visit for a week. Visit a different country; possibly a mission trip for the hell of it. =) Get married (rare possibility if goal #6 doesn't go as planned...) Get a gun and shoot the antichrist in the forehead. (please don't turn that into a debate...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 my life is one third over already, so i'm not sure if certain goals are still attainable. Becoming a dad. Contemplate THAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 With that attitude, YD, I'd be worried to! Besides, it's best to write down your goals in life. It somehow makes them more real to you. By the time I'm 24? 1. At least be almost be done with college. "computer engineer" AKA "glorified electrician" *crosses fingers* 2. Wonder around Europe. Just for a few weeks though. I don't want to completely loose my sense of smell, now do I? <-- JOKE 3. Steady girldfriend. 4. A robot. I want to build a robot. My brother has already built a few and I'd like to one up him by making a totally awesome one. 5. I'd like to at least co-own a business by then. 6. Who knows what else? I guess I'll just see what life sends my way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhaleeLah Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 well 24 was a long time ago. How about by the time I'm 40? 1) Not to have killed any of my students. (they get so annoying at this time of year) 2) Have my doctorate. 3) Have all 6 SW movies on DVD or whatever the next new format will be (you hear me Mr. Lucas??) 4) Not to have wasted all my time responding to posts on these forums.

DarthNoodles Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 "This is a list of goals I intend to achieve by the time I reach 24. " I'm 25 and I guess I'm looking good from your stand point on life. The age I accomplished things is in brackets. "Read the entire NIV version of the Bible" Working on that now. I know the Bible pretty well but haven't the whole thing through yet. [?] "Get a part-time job at either a mall, rollerskating rink, theatre, or movie rental" I've done fast food and grocery store, close enough?[17-22] "Go to an A+ Training Course" A+ seems kinda useless to me. Did 3 1/2 yrs college for Microcomputer Engineering Technology. [19-22] "Build my own computer for gaming" Built several of my own computers although not specifically for gaming.[19] "Attempt to get a girlfriend" Did that. [21] "Get a high-paying job in either networking or building computers" I work as a Software Developer for a decent amount, not obscene put it supports myself, my wife and our 3 month old daughter.[22] "Leave the house and move into an apartment." Been there done that a few times.[20(twice),22] Bought a house 2 weeks ago. "Visit a different country; possibly a mission trip for the hell of it. =)" Been to Australia(I'm Canadian) for work (Sydney Olympics 2000)[turned 24 while there]. Spent a week in Iqaluit as a missionary. It's in nothern Canada, above the arctic circle I believe (??lattitude 63 degrees??).[25] "Get married (rare possibility if goal #6 doesn't go as planned...)" Above girlfriend became wife.[22] As for my own plans: - Be a good father to daughter and as of yet unborn child[ren]. - Keep serving God. - Keep my job. - Keep true to myself. - Visit more countries. harder now with children. - Have fun. - See the Toronto Maple Leafs win a Stanely Cup. *sigh* Let's hope most of these can happen.

Sithcloak Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 Before 24: 1. Go to BYU and major in computer science. 2. Go on a mission for my church. (The church of jesus christ of latterday saints) 3. Get married in the temple, (In my church you want to get married in a temple, sealed for all time and eternity.) 4. Get a job in a gaming company or start my own. Those are my basic goals. If you want in the next 4 years, then: 1. Get a part-time job. 2. Get a powerful computer. 3. Create the best star wars fan film of all time. 4. Start on a computer game. 5. Start writing a novel. 6. And possibley get high school done early. That's it. Sithcloak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tie Guy Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Hmmm.... Keep making straight A's in high school while taking AP classes so i can get a scholarship. Get into either VaTech or UNC-CH with a full (or close to it) scholarship Graduate college and grad school with a master in Business and/or Computer Sciences. Get married (doesn't particularly matter if its before or after 24 as long as i find the right person) Work for dad in Computer Programming/Consulting business Be top 25 in the NC USTA tennis league thats enough for now, i may think of some more before i'm 24.

idiot00001 Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 By 24 I plan on making mid-high A's in Pre-AP and AP classes. Be in top 1% of my class (right now I am at 2-3%). Go to a good college. Graduate college in Comp. Sci, unless I change my mind. Get a good job. Get married (not necessarily before I'm 24 years old). Build a computer. Maybe travel sometime after college.

Clefo Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 What I'd LIKE to do 1. Marry the women of my dreams, but my idea as such doesn't exsist 2. Be in a kickass rock band and make it big 3. Go to Stanford 4. Have the highest GPA in my HS class What I WILL do 1. Probably remain dateless throughout HS and College 2. I'm kinda in a band, but we suck 3. I'll probably get into Berkly or something or I may be forced in to the University of Arizona 4. This one's pretty good chance wise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Graduate with a 1st (looking like a 50-50 chance at the moment). Get a job at a cool indy cinema as the programmer (this job doesn't entail much money, but I would be happy watching and researching films FOREVER!). Find a cool, sexy, intelligent, dignified, relaxed girl, sometimes I think I'm only ever gonna attract annoying manipulative types (if you dont like the word 'type' you could always exchange it for 'bitch').

Kylilin Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 I have a few goals/dreams/things I really wanted to do: 1. Stand on the field at Yankee Stadium - did it, I was in awe, I stepped on home plate and sat in the dugout too, very cool. 2. Get married to a wonderful girl - In the process, I am going to propose this summer. 3. Become a teacher - In the process, one more semester to go!! 4. Be a starting pithcher for the Yankees - will never happen, but dreams ARE dreams. 5. Have some kids - imagine a bunch of little Kylilins running around, this world would be a better place, see #2 I guess my goals are not too lofty, I am in the process of fulfilling them. Wish me luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clefo Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 I have goals about the Yankees too! But they mostly involve mooning Roger Clemens I'd actually want to play a sport, but the only one I'm kinda good at (Baseball) has a problem, as I kinda lack in the hitting department, I can field, run, catch and bunt like nobody's motha! but hitting is a problemo...
