Hi forums, this thread can serve as a sort of time capsule in which to return to periodically It has been shown that within a time span of 7 years, almost every cell/atom in the human body is replaced, aside from certain cells in the nervous system. Furthermore, in cells' attempts at staying alive, nearly every atom in the body is replaced. A lot can change in seven years. Think about your life 5-7 years ago. Perhaps lots has changed, or maybe not. For people who were in middle/high school, the change must have been dramatic. For me, 5 years ago I was in grade 8. It seems crazy how much different things are. My values, beliefs, and even my personality are very different than they were then. When I look back at my old kaw messages or on my wall, these changes become even more apparent. However, this thread is about the next 5-7 years. Where do you see yourself then? What would you want to say to your future self? What messages/values do you want to stay with you for your life? How have you changed in the past 7 years? How do you think you will change in the next 7 years?
Where I would like to be is to be a programmer for a video game. However, in 5-7 years I don't think that will be. I will most likely be studying computer science and IT in college, whilst saving up enough to develop an indie title.
Never said I wasn't pursuing it. That's where I want to be in the next 5-7 years. Also, maybe a girlfriend??? Nah, I'm too stupid. Just the programming.
Hopefully finally getting my book deal closed, successfully turning TeaTime into something. I hope to be a whole lot wiser, preferably learning from my mistakes, and making some new friends along the way. Here's hoping, right?
Hackison, me and you are pretty much on the same track lol. A girlfriend wouldn't be too badand programming is something I do as a hobby right now but have gotten into a lot these past 6-8 months. Can do objective C Pretty well.
I would like to see myself grow into a better person and I would like to see my YouTube channel Nighthawk Entertainment grow big.
I started journaling. I'm hoping I can make it a habit, so I can look back years from now to get a picture of my former self. I used to journal a bit in high school and in my early 20s. Then I stopped for about 10 years. Now I have been at it again for the past month or so. Just looking back a few weeks is enlightening.
As a programmer I'd say there's not much point to school for it. If you want the theory behind it you COULD go to school for 2 years or just read some books. Code academy is a great website to help teach you how to code. Skill crush is also super helpful. If you wanna code just code, school won't do much
