He said a lawyer AND psychologist. Two of the highest paying jobs I know!

That doesn't really help me with being jealous you know. 
I will likely have to work until my 67 or something like that. That is if I don't kill myself for not being able to deal with Cantr being down so long.

Two mid-40s folks, retired, with law degrees.. Man, did I choose the wrong career! I believe I MIGHT be able to afford to retire when I'm 120... oh, well, at least my house is about 40% paid off already.... (and I get to play Cantr at work

The news that Joshuamonkey is now 18 has depressed me greatly.Joshuamonkey wrote:I'm 18, just finished high school. I'll be working this summer and then going to college to major in Computer Science and hopefully Spanish. I run a lot. I did cross country and long distance track, and plan to still run. And I play the cello a lot too. I'm trying to learn programming and web-design. I also play Cantr, FTO, Ikariam (enough to survive), and Runescape. I'm very different than the average Runescape player though. I guess that applies to Cantr too.
They grow up so fast, don't they? *sniff*

Strange that people get older. I'm just happy I don't age as fast as my chars do.

Partly because of Cantr, I feel like an old man and a little kid at the same time.

woohoo, something else I can post about! (I'm new to these forums, yet not a new player or anything...)
I'm 19, and in university. I study religion and global development (or lack thereof.) I live comfortably below the poverty line, can't seem to find a job right now, and have been trying to help my cantr withdrawal by playing GTA ... it's not working. I love trivia, reading, and most of all sleeping. I listen to classic rock, and suppose I'm of the hippie variety.
Oh, and I'm Canadian. Yay

Well, lets see...
I'm 22, and majoring in Graphic Design, BFA. This will be my fifth, and final, year. Art is what I do, ladies and gents.
Been working as a shophand at a local museum the past three years, setting up exhibits, building displays, that sort of thing. At least, I was, until the beginning of this month, when a cut to their funding had them letting go of all of their student workers. So, I'm recently unemployed, and looking for a new job or two.
Eh, hobbies: Computer games are my kryptonite. I love building stuff. Had a hammer in my hand since before I was in daycare. Love to read, listen to almost all music, and I'm a huge fan of movies (action, adventure, and comedy, please!). I could fill a page covering my tastes in books and music, so "mostly everything" is a pretty good descriptor.
Love being outdoors as well; kayaking, rock climbing, hiking, camping, alpine skiing, you name it. In my spare time, I make pottery and metal sculpture.
I'm also what you could call a medieval enthusiast. Been shooting a bow since I was 6, swordfighting since I was 8, making chainmaille since I was 12, costumes around 18, shields at 19, and making plate armour since I was 20.

I'm 16, I'm not currently employed, and I attend high school. I'm a hobbyist programmer, and hope to one day attend school for computer science.

Cool, I'm into art too I only wish I was in BFA though My parents decided that they didn't want to pay six figures for me to "paint pretty pictures." Ah well. I'm perfectly happy where I'm at, and seeing as I'm thoroughly unemployed I have plenty of time to paint.
I wish I could swordfight. I'd feel pretty badass brandishing a claymore. Lucky you!
I also forgot to mention my love/obsession with animals. I have two rats and a skinny pig atm, but if I hadn't got in huge trouble in residence I'd also have mice and a rabbit. I had a bunch of pets in res and was forced to give them away. Lame. Oh well. I wish I'd known years ago what great pets rats make
