Sorry if this has been done already, but what would be your career choice next to modeling?

I'll start:  I love sewing, altering, and designing clothes and I love to decorate houses!

My career choice is nothing.  Careers are boring.

But I also make clothing, jewelry, stencils, puzzles, collages, music, vegan sweets and other stuff that I can't think of right now.  I also write.  I also take photos [which I am just learning how to do because I've only now gotten my hands on a good camera.]  I do a lot of things and most of them can bring me money if I need it.

University of Idaho.  Not well known for a spectacular fashion program or anything but still pretty good.  I'm excited to get out there now and do something with what I've learned.

I'm a Health and Nutrition major but hope to freelance write professionally. Writing is probably my number 1 passion and one of these days I am gonna start that book of mine that's been brewing in my head for years.

Oh! And I may want to do something in organization. Can you believe some people pay people to help organize their lives?? That so could be me smile

I am not into the career idea. Seems very deadend to me. If your only goal is to make money... then that seems very pointless to me.

I am into vintage clothing. I have even worked on period productions.

My goal for the last 7 years was to become an FBI special Agent. I also have dreamed about being a spy as well. I just finished my Administration of Justice degree and I had planned on getting a minors in Middle Eastern Studies/ Arabic Language. but table have turned and I dont want to be an FBI agent becuase they dont make any money and have a huge workload with mandatory overtime that is not paid. Plus Im making more than what I would be starting out in the FBI...GS9/10 dont make much money.

I am currently an owner of two upcoming boutiques so my main focus is on that right now but if that doesnt work out I can always go back to being a GIS Analyst or something in the Intel field.
