Well I agree with Coastek240, so I am going to take a crack at it. Well if yall are in high school or college, or working what do yall plan to do for yall life. I am at Texas A&M University trying to get a degree in mechanical engineering. I want to work for honda, nissan, bmw, or almost anything foreign (I am not bashing American car companies but this is the way I feel). I plan to get a lot of old cars and do my own thing with them.
Well I think this is to long so I am going to stop, but yall start posting and for give the texas slang

Senior in HS now. I want to be an ME. A tip: if you want to work for a foreign auto company, learn their language. If I spoke German or Japanesse, I would have a chance. I was gonna go to Texas A&M but they wanted me to write an essay, so I am just gonna go to TN Tech. Cheaper too. Yeah, I know, I am a slacker.

This September i'll be going to Rockport college, which is one of the bigger photography schools out there. It's known all over the world. I'm planning on going into web development after college, hopefully running my own business. I'm doin a DBA freelance thing right now under Digital-Traffic, but the work is a bit slow.

I will probably go with Biomedical Engineering, and right now I'm guessing I'll end up in R&D for cancer treatments and technologies (which means a PhD, bleh). But I gotta make it out of undergrad first, hehe.

I'm currently at the Academy of Art College. I've been there for the past 3 years majoring in "new media" and computer arts. I just need to finish a bunch of units before I graduate. ####, I always thought it was gonna be a 4 year deal, but I have all this shit I have to do in the next couple years to get my bachelor's degree in new media. =/
Boo-hoo for me. Hopefully the job market will pick up again by the time I graduate. I'm currently looking for a job, any job. @

Fastpace have you studied japanese before? Do you watch anime(subbed) and/or listen to Japanese music(nihon no ongaku)? If you have not or don't do those things you should start. Two years of Japanese at a University(daigakuin) will allow you to pick up some of what is needed but I really doute that you will be speaking it fluently. I have a friend who pickes up on things very fast and has been studing japanese(nihon' go) for two years. He can understand about 65-70% of what someone is saying as long as they are not talking to fast. There are other people in his class that can not even do that good. Just trying to for warn you. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Well kind of I am really starting to get into it. Not just because it is the thing to do, but it really interest me. I understand where you are coming from. I also plan on going on another study abroad program in Japan as an exchange student. But thanks for the help though.

i'm a senior in high school now, i'm either going to james madison university or old dominion university, and going to study contract law and agencies...(looking to be a sports agent) with a minor in business. from there i don't know where i'll go. if i get a business lisence i may open a shop, if i make it big as an agent then i'll run a shop on the side or as a hobby.(this only came to me about a month ago. i was sooo clueless until then, i know this will change again, but the one thing i definatly plan on doing when i grow up is own as many 240's as i can and tune them into perfection!..lol

i wouldn't suggest applying to artcenter...it's hella-hard to get in and the average age among students is like 23 or something...its mainly a grad school. You might look into the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit tho, theyre the only other college i know of that offers an education devoted to auto design.
