Real world

Recommended Posts

Meeting up with my zeus squad m8's and finding out what a varied group of pl we are made me wondering what my fellow ofp junkies all over the world do for a living or what kindoff education they are getting.

In other words; what do you all do in the real world??

(Im a visual effects artist myself, work on flame on mostly television commercials and some cinema work. 32 years old)

I'm 17 and I'm in year 2 of 3 in a high school in Sweden, reading a natural science program mixed with a few IT courses that aren't part of the natural science program.

Got no idea what I wanna do for a living though confused.gif... But that doesn't matter too much right now, got 1Ë year in high school still, and then 1-2 years of military service and working to earn some money until I know what I wanna study for. smile_o.gif

my wife would like to write some , she's full of ideas and wrote them down on papers , i find them quite nice , but she has no time to actually draw anything (and from what i've seen in the past she's quite talented when it comes to drawing)

15, Finnish, joined The Youth League of the Coalition Party last September. It's my only real hobby. I was just a trainee there for two weeks. I'll prolly be in politics for the rest of my life. I spend my free time mostly in front of my computer and doing long walks in the forest with my dog. And during winter I go skiing.

I'm English, 15, and doing my GCSE exams. I'm probably the most angsty messed up teenager ever; I'm underacheiving at school, (Bs and Cs, as opposed to As and A*s as I'm supposed to be getting) I'm a bit of a junkie/alcoholic, I'm an insomniac, and my 16 year old girlfriend needs an abortion. So, life is bad, I guess.
