I am currently studying IT, and if it's goin' well (wich means: I know what I have to do and it is programming what I have to do) I do it with very much joy, but not with passion (I still hope for that to come).
Maybe I rather want to be an artist, trouble is: I never do artsy stuff whatsoever :-(
I wonder what it would be with you guys?

Well, I want to go back to school. I currently have no idea what's open to me or whether I can gain entry to anything worthwhile with two mediocre A-levels (I have major regrets about my lack of effort in years gone), but me and my sister cooked up this crazy scheme about moving to Manchester, or maybe Leeds... Probably will never happen, though.

Earning a living from my art is not something that really interests me, although I wouldn't mind working in design. (I consider that somewhat seperate, since "art" to me is a very personal expression.)

@tpg

If you can stand living off a small loan, go to college, get an HND, then go to uni and finish with a degree. Of course you can also work part time as well.

Right now I'm a service tech at a computer store.  I'd like to be a professional musician instead!  Unless you mean right this minute, then which I'm playing sid music through my headphones and it's making me feel like my head is going to implode because of the blunt sound of the simple waveforms, and I'd rather be having sex instead :-D

I run a payroll department for an accountancy firm.  It's as exciting as it sounds.

Ideally - seeing as there's no vacancies at Job Centre Plus for Spitfire pilots or Formula One drivers, I'd indulge a creative passion for writing and would be reasonably successful it it too.
