[QUOTE="Dark__Link"][QUOTE="6_volts"]Well, I haven't taken the private pilot exam yet and yes, student for commercial piloting.

You haven't taken the exam?! :o Most nerve-racking day of my life! How many hours do you have?Really? oh man I don't want to imagine the pressure they must put on you, and I have around 14 hours, but the thing is I left the flight academy I was going to and went to college instead to get an Associate's degree and then I'm planning on joining the Air Force. Well it was my own fault really... the test guy was really nice and even let me get away without doing clearing turns before doing a series of stalls (which he could have auto-failed me for)... but I guess I just made it out to be harder than it was and freaked myself out.
Good luck with the Air Force... maybe you'll end up flying fighters... I'd be jealous. :(

I see, well you know that can happen to anyone and yeah consider yourself lucky because not many flight instructors are that nice, also thanks I appreciate it and it's one of my dreams to fly a fighter, why don't you join the Air Force?

Thats awesome... I encourage anyone to join the Military, for the right reasons. Also, if the Air Force doesnt work out the Navy/Marines have a great program too. I know you said fighters, but if helo's ever interested you the Army has a good WOF Flight program.
No, not really. There are a few things that I REALLY like (computers, music, biology, literature, the Latin language), but I don't know if I really have a passion for any of them. It kind of sucks being mediocre at everything you do.t3hrubikscube
I LOVE knowing useless irrelevant information. I have no idea why but I crave this stuff. Also, I have a passion for comic books, video games, greek literature, and the conceptual side of finance.

I always saw it as an unobtainable dream... so I never really looked too far into it. Now I'm getting ready to get a job in engineering (my other "passion"). If I had seen the USAF as something obtainable from the start, that's probably where I'd be right now.

Yea I do. I have a passion for music, Ive been part of the music industry for 7 years now, jobs that included, music journalism, being a radio talk show host, and blogger. I still have my job at the Radiostation and I am still a music journalist for San Francisco
I also love to cook and bake, and I am currently going through culinary school and working at a restaurant.

I see, well it has also happened to me that I wanted to do something that I couldn't so I moved onto the next thing that I liked, so good luck to you with engineering!
[QUOTE="LZ71"]History, and baseball. One I could see being a career, while the other I see as just an activity that I don't expect to really go anywhere.Engrish_Major
I can't decide which is which... :P It's so hard to tell, isn't it? :P [spoiler] For those of you still wondering, the activity that I expect to not amount to much is baseball. >_> [/spoiler]
Knowledge. The more I know about things the better I feel. I hate having questions I don't know an answer to. If I had one wish, it would be to know the truth about everything, from women to religion to science.

I feel the same. But I like learning languages in particular. But I'm not like most language-learners who want to learn many languages (10+), rather I want to know 4-5 languages very very fluently.
Too many things... but my two main interests have always been in music and film. I was smart to pick two fields that can easily intertwine to make you one complete starving artist. :idea:
writing the only problem is that is in spanish :S not many people know it on this site. Apart from that movies i like to see them as a chemical process from start to finish and observe all the ingredients that make its work or broken.
I have what you probably could call a passion for the arts. i'm generally pretty laid back, but when i start painting a canvas i put in as much effort as i can and do everything to make it perfect. Everyone around me keep saying that i'm a really talented photographer aswell, i've been dying to buy a proper SLR camera for a few months now. I'd like to think of myself as very creative.
I really like drawing, when I get into it I get pretty dedicated, as dedicated as when I was playing a MMO (Glad that I'm done with MMOs for good now though).
