Oh dear lord. I have not stayed in the same place for more than a year for the past...well...since I started college, so five years. The first four years were just moving in and out of dorms every summer, but then when I graduated, I moved elsewhere, and then moved again two months later. Two months ago I moved out of that place, and then a few days ago I moved down here to Indianapolis.
So...I HATE moving. My future plans involve me not doing so, with some actual sort of home, ya know? Somewhere with nice stuff- gaming store, museums, a good library, book stores, fun shops, and a good SF&F/gamer base.
Despite how much I loathe moving, I love traveling and do hope to do more of it. I'm not sure where is next. I mean, I went to Chile two years ago. I can't afford anything...hell, I couldn't really afford going to grad school like I am without loans and the fact that they waived tuition. Still...I almost ended up teaching english in Japan for a year. I'd like to do something shorter than that.
As far as a job goes, well...I want to get my Masters in Museum Studies, which I'm working towards right now, and get a job at a large museum somewhere....maybe in exhibit design. BUT, I also want to write comic books. I'm working on one right now. It's sort of the next big project. For print, not a webcomic. I'm debating whether to go through the hassle of printing it and selling it myself (time consuming, which is a problem since I'm in grad school), or tossing it to comic publishing companies and seeing if any of them would take it. If I do the latter, I want it to be somewhere where I'll still have control of my project and its rights.

Post college: if the show pitch works, do the show. If not, try to get a job in my career of choice (animation, TV, voice acting, film, games). If can't, apply to CalArts and Academy of Art University for 2d/classical animation.
My plan ain't much, but I really don't want to say it.
You know, i should work on this.

I am planning on going to college and major in writing, and minor in art. I am going to sell my comic, and maybe work on another one. Work on a novel. Sell a book of poetry. Maybe do some photography. As much as it takes to get a decent living while still doing what I love.
I am going to stay in Oregon where I live but move to a different city. (LO is expencive) I will adopt a girl and name her Lana. I will have two cats (Boomer and Binx), and a snake (Sameji). I hope to live in a small house with a big backyard. If I can't afford one with a big enough back yard then that's fine. Then I am going to annoy my mom by decorating my front lawn with garden gnomes and flamingos. hehe

The plan as it stands: Finish college, commission 2LT in US Army National Guard, attend another university (maybe same one) and work on degree in Criminal Justice while serving. If I haven't made Captain, go active duty until I make Captain. Once I make Captain, retire my commission (unless I love the Army too much) and then apply for work with the FBI while securing my masters in either Criminal Justice or Computer Engineering. Work with FBI in capturing criminals and other evil people who make this world suck.
And somewhere in there...I just might find time to have a social life.

My current plan involves spending two more years at college and getting a degree in something entirely useless.
Usually the lack of further plan worries me, but since my financial aid info came back and offered me NOTHING, it's suddenly become enough to worry about. There are details to be ironed out, and shouty phone calls to be made, and hopefully I'll end up in a better situation than I am now. But it may mean I have to give up the dorms and live at home this year - and that means carpooling goodness, because I don't have a car - and it would mean living in an area where there's nowhere to walk to and where the buses don't reach - and it would mean living with my Mom, who's becoming increasingly stressed and who has been driving me crazy all summer.
Also, I might lose my work study job.
*kicks things*
Urrgh. I need to move out. If only I knew anyone I could convince to get a place with me . . .

This shouldn't be that hard for you.

In that case, room with me. I'm anti-social and a indoor hermit, but a starving artist...Soooo.
