    You can't be a ninja AND a musician, ninja's are sneaky, playing music would just give away your position! The nursing ninja will come in handy though. Nothing like being able to patch yourself up ;)

    I'd be living a triple life, where people just think I'm an NP and do music for fun. By the time someone figured out i was a ninja it'd be too late :P

    Pro baseball player.. more like a dream... but still a job...

    Other.. Rock band musician.. dream too sort of..

    Other.. Own my business...

    but.. the one I have right now.. is quite a dream come true... so anything else is more like fantasy jobs...
  • I want to work in theatre. Doing either costume design or acting or possibly stage managing.... I haven't exactly decided yet. I just know that I want to work in theatre and I want to live in New York, so of course my dream is Broadway, but I honestly don't care if it's off-Broadway or off-off-Broadway, I just want to do theatre in New York.

    For me it would be a jewelry designer...I used to own a little buisness. I just love color and miss the creativity of designing pieces.

  • my absolute dream job would be to run a children's/family education program at an art museum. something like this: http://www.getty.edu/education/kids_families/programs/family_forum.html

    i'll probably end up teaching at the high school or community college level for a while and i'm pretty all right with that too.

    High school football/soccer coach.
  • I want to be an interpreter for the UN or the CIA. I'm currently laying out all the foot work to get there, but I would love to interpret language all day every day and travel the world!

    Egyptologist
  • MAke up and hair on celebrities
  • Definetely in the psychology field. I want to be a counselor for young children. I think it will be extremely heartbreaking but at the same time there's so many little kids out there that have had to deal with abuse and I want to help in any way I can to restoring them to what they should be. No child (no person, actually) deserves to have things done to them or taken away from them like that and it makes me so sad. Humanity as a whole makes me sad, actually!

    When I was 9 I wanted to be a TV Reporter when I grew up and that's exactly what I grew up to be.

    If I could do anything else, it would be screenwriter and/or author or Beyonce's back up dancer

    Currently, I am a college humanities instructor, but I would LOVE to be a novelist! Once my summer courses end, I will be working on making that dream a reality.

    I would love to be a baker, too, and work at Disney as a wedding cake designer. I would be sobbing every day out of sheer joy of making others happy on their big days!

    You couldn't be Beyonce's backup dancer! You're too gorgeous to stand in the background!

    Pampered Chef Consultant who helps lots of other people go for their dreams and reach their full potential in a high quality and financially sound company which happens to be part of Warren Buffet's financial holdings. I do it and it's my dream occupation and my training is in psychology. I love having the flexibility of working when i choose to around my family's schedule. I also love that I get to work with people helping them bring their family together around mealtimes and sharing all I've learned about healthy nutrition and balanced lifestyle.
