1) Professional mathlete.
2) Sysadmin.
3) That job where you get to do awesome cutting-edge research but don't have to publish or worry about politics.
4) High school guidance counselor.
5) Physics teacher.

What's awesome is all these careers except (1) are well within my reach

If I had the ability:
- Concert pianist
- Ballerina
- National Geographic Photographer
- Pop Singer
- Architect (Not so sure about my 'artistic' abilities)
- World-Class Chef

Otherwise:
- College Professor
- News Anchor
- NYT/CFR/Economist Writer/Contributor/Analyst

My default plan is law school but not really - it just gives me a sense of a concrete, practical path... not sure about my interest levels. -_-

In other news - wow, I really don't like my major (history). -____-;
