I don't know if it's an autistic thing, but I dream big sometimes. I still have a kind of fascination with wanting to be in showbiz someday. I really wish I can pursue theater, if it weren't for my living situation now. I can be pretty serious about wanting my dreams. I don't care about being famous at it, but whatever.

What is the big dream you want to have in your life, or in the future?

I have no clear goals in my life and never have done. I'm currently studying Software Development at college. So I suppose i'm going in that kind of direction. But i'd be lying if I said it was something i've been dreaming about. I just make things up as I go along.

I have a plan for an educational project that I hope to be able to get underway this coming year. It will eventually involve about a million people. :mrgreen:

When lost in my own fantasy thoughts, my ever-changing dreams can be wild. Usually involve allot of travel and huge success… One example and if everything in life was perfect, could have been possible. My career would focus on buying and selling small airplanes. Mostly selling to southern Africa for tour companies. Basically, using my parent’s talents and combining them into a successful family business… I love the idea of flying around the world in small planes and that would be my job. My parents currently own an airplane and both work in the aviation industry. Unfortunately, things are not perfect and therefore not possible…

Back in reality land; I really want a career I can be happy with. That allows solo time when needed. Biggest aspiration I have is owning a place of my own and putting my personal touches on it. Having a dog waiting for me to come home from work… Most importantly financial stability.

I never really had a big dream or thing I wanted to do other than wanting to marry both my exes, now my current girlfriend & the iCarly star, Miranda Cosgrove.

I have no ambition to dream anything big.
I'd settle in a forest alone with my own homegrown food in my mom's hometown. Which is highly plausable, the option is open to me as long as I can afford a plane ticket. All I have to do, is disappear. :evil:
Maybe spent my life crafting and gardening, then teach people how to -- Also plausible.
But I prefer to take things a bit slow...
The biggest dream I have is to be a civil engineer. :lol: If I were an opportunistic person, I already got this. I have the option (scholarship, parents consent, encouragement, etc), but my conscience won't let me. :x Because I already received 'too much', I can't 'take' anymore. So, maybe, IF I earn this myself, I might...


If I have an absurd kind of dream, I would like to be a spy. :lol:
Or some enigma who helps the law behind the scenes.
Or to be the best assistant/right hand that anyone could have.
Or become rich, never have to work and worry about paying, and spend my time travelling, studying, and practicing skills I want.

I very much hope to find work with some kind of history/heritage organisation. It's what I do now but it's only a few hours a week and there's no chance of more hours or progression of any kind. Ultimately I would love to work for a castle. :)

My biggest thing is to be a stable loving parent so that my son can have the best chance at whatever he wants to be and do.

Some of the goals I want to accomplish are things normal people have been doing for years:

Get a full time job (Presently, I work part time, but am doing a variety of things that I hope will lead to full time employment). I would like to get a full-time job, either at the library where I work or in a helping profession, working with people who have autism and other disabilities.

Get married. This will probably be unattainable. I don't see a man wanting someone like me.

I would like to attend a tennis tournament. I want to meet Denis Istomin, interview him and write the story of his life. There has been very little written about him and I would like to be the one to write his story. Denis' story about his recovery from a serious car accident and making the ATP tour really inspired me. He is my role model for someone succeeding against the odds.

Continue with my social outlets (tennis, church, dance class and Toastmasters) and continue on my path to self-improvement.

No big goals. I prefer simplicity, and find happiness and contentment in ordinary daily activities. I guess my 'pipe dream' would be to live as a hermit in the woods, away from the noise and confusion, but I accept that that's unlikely to happen.

Don't worry, I have held hands and kissed a girl before, even I'm still struggling to find someone else. So good luck.

Yes but i haven't. I would love to but i haven't. :(

I would dearly love to take a special girl to the movies, to eat dinner out. To bring her to meet my family.

One thing I absolutely want to do is visit Japan. The culture has fascinated me from a very young age, and I'd love to be able to experience it first-hand.

Also, this isn't so much an absolute must as it is a wish, but I hope to turn one of my hobbies into a sustainable job. Preferably either my music or one of my two YouTube channels.
