I just want a steady career, to have enough income to support myself and my loved ones, and to just be HAPPY. Nothing special.

Just happy.

1.) Pursue my artistic talents I've had since childhood (I was a potential child prodigy that no one tried hard enough to convince me to go to art school, so I'm teaching myself without any person's help).. it's becoming an obsession
2.) To get my degree in Digital Media - Visual Language (Animation/Computer Modeling)
3.) Get a job as either an animator or concept art designer or modeler in video game production, or become a professional artist with a gallery.
4.) Write a book or graphic novel - one that can have disturbing imagery to the point of being too graphic
5.)To find the right WOMAN (no time for immature spoiled girls which I see almost everywhere on my college's campus), get married, and hopefully have little me's running around (G-d forbid)

Besides which, I'm sick of warlords, criminal dictators, religious politics, petty warlets and gross over population. Global domination is not so farfetched as you may think - not since the microchip, at least.

Still, I wonder, what are your ambitions? No jokes, please, but serious goals. Are they to do with anything in your life, with autism, with the world?

My goals come and go, a new ambition sets in to replace an old one. At the moment I have my sights set on learning everything I can about Asperger's.

I've never told anyone about this but I want to have a photography exhibition about autism awareness. I'm not really sure how it's going to end up. I'm aiming for black and white photos of autistic children.
I've actually got a good contact that is urging me to have a photography exhibition in Sydney.

Also I would like good friends and a well paying job so I can live on my own. Or doing the Sydney thing and share rent with a bunch of strangers.

My ambition is to become a pediatric neurologist. A great one. I want to help people with neurological conditions get better. And knowing that I cured them, would be such an amazing feeling. :o

to find peace with myself, my desires and my environment, to be able to understand to be happy with what I have. To remain a boy forever, to keep the illusion of not aging alive...however surreal that sounds.

My ambitions?

I want my son to come back home with me.

I want to be able to help build a pool of resources for higher funcitoning autistic people in my area.

I want to finish this damn book now that I'm 50K words in and get it published.

I want to write a book about my life on the spectrum without crying about the last 18 months.

I want to have a quiet, happy, resource filled life.

Is that too much?

Ive been to Japan - its a fantastic country, well worth visiting at least.

My ambition is to eventually become an auditor and training consultant and own my own business doing so.
Hoping to be doing this in my 40's.
Am on the way :D

Determined, young albeit inexperienced musician, stepping into somewhat tricky adult times (20's), ramming down barriers in an attempt to become a Rockstar, then hopefully contributing to change in society. :ninja:
