Victorious Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 As the title of this thread says... If you could choose any profession in the world, what would you be? Please state the profession and give a reason. Please try to explain your reason. I'm doing this for an essay and I need help. (Definitely not IB-related.) Thank you!

Award Winning Boss Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I think I'd be buzz lightyear or Woody from Toy Story because I'd get to save my friends all the time and get paid. It'd be a big game plus, chilling with Mr. Potatohead must be amazing. But let's say I was in a fantasy world, I think i'd be an academic scholar type person because learning is fun (but not the IB. The IB makes me sad.) I prefer my more interesting examples I'd be a butterfly so I can get paid for having sexy wings. I'd be a teacher so I can troll all my pupils by giving them really bad marks in every exam then they'll be like 'oh noes I'm a failure' then I'll go home every night and laugh, then write what I did in my diary. I'd also like to be a dictator. Power makes me all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Plus, I'd like to make everyone to build a massive sculpture of me out of chocolate cake and if it melts they'll replace it. I realise that my post is becomming too helpful so I'll stop. I wouldn't want to do too much of your essay Have fun 6 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

citizenoftheuniverse Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 If I had the skills, I would LOVE to be an author... I've always admired authors since I like reading a lot and when you read a really good book you think, "Wow what an amazing, creative, intelligent person they were to have created this awesomeness!". I always come up with stories in my head that I could write. Though honestly I know I like the THOUGHT of being an author more than being an author for realz. I probably like reading more than writing, but since I look up to authors, of course I want to be one of them Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammie Backman Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) I would choose to be an astrophysicist and astronaut. I could never conjure the courage to actually pursue this profession, as the chances of success are so slim.It would also be pretty cool to work for the IBO. I find education rather interesting.

breanna_cheer Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'd love to be a host of a travel show, if only because I could tour the world. I'd also be an astronaut because I find space fascinating. I'd be a pilot because flight and planes also fascinates me. I'd be an engineer because that'd mean i was smart enough to be one Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

haydenj96 Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I would be a CEO, of The Walt Disney Company to be exact. That's my current career goal. I'm also looking into a career in technology, with the highlight being working for the FBI in a cybercrime or cyberintelligence task force. For the FBI position, I would just love the adrenaline, and would love helping solve today's threats to our homeland security. Now for the CEO position, I'd like to say that I would be a CEO to make a difference in the world, or to set an example, or to prove that the American Dream is still alive. (We're pretty low on funds, if you know what I mean.) But while all of those things are important....I think I'll be honest with myself. It really comes down to me being human and wanting the fame and fortune. Simple as that. I don't know why I lie to myself. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wykked Wytch Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I am personally inspired by the writings of Oliver Sacks. He is a neurologist who combines medical case studies with brilliant storytelling and, at times, moments of philosophical introspection.So yeah, I'd like to be a neurologist, an author, a philosopher, and a dark wizard.

Crazy Gemini Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I want to be a journalist because I enjoy writing and I've grown up with the stories my cousin has told me about his life as Hollywood correspondent for a major national Swedish newspaper. He's truly my idol and if I could be half as good a journalist as he, I'd be lucky Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmeena Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I would like to be a writer. I would write novels, fantastic stories, and be biig as J.K. Rowling. Or a scientist ( a nuclear one probably) because I'm really interested in this area of physics and chemistry + I believe I would bring a new approach . I just can't put my finger on it, but I'm really really really interested in that. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

funny10sport Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I would like to be a Social Cultural Anthropologist That way I could study people and how they evolved because of their different cultures and historic background. You could just understand people more!I wouldn't mind being a missionary either, with the money earned, just keep on giving it out to help some more. A good cycle.
