I'm currently studying, and hope to be finished in the next two (maybe three) years. Then I will either go into specialised study or begin working. My youngest will be close to starting school then. I am not super young, and I have no real experience. I've pretty much been raising children since I was an adult. BUT, I hope to still end up working in an area I enjoy!

So, if you could choose, ignoring wages, or part of the country/world, what would you ideal job be? It's got to be something that exists.

I'm studying Modern History in a Bachelor of Arts, and choosing a few varied electives, such as Languages and Anthropology and English to keep it varied. At the moment I think the job I would love to have would be a museum curator.

I want to be a midwife. It is what I have always wanted to be despite the average wages and shift work.

I am currently working towards my goal, I am midway through a nursing degree to become an RN and when I start working I am going to do my post grad degree in midwifery.

I'm starting my dream job in a couple of weeks - full time, permanent teacher aide (SLSO) on an IS/IO class. My dream.

I've had sooooo many teachers telling me that I should become a teacher but I'm happy where I am, making a difference where I think it matters. I help kids to fulfil their potential original.gif It's so rewarding.

I have always wanted to be a nurse, I think I like helping people biggrin.gif

Case Management/Social Work. Close to finishing a Diploma in Community Services and then probably uni after that while working. I volunteer in that industry now and love it.
