Everyone has their own dreams, but do they really come true? I really wanted to become a Doctor.. I hated computer. But, now i am a Network Specialist. You guys must have dreamt of being something and became something else. Let's see if there are other people like me ....

Doctor, Engineer, and Pilot are the professions that are conditioned to each and every Nepalese child. When I was kid I wanted to be a pilot. Then after going to high school, I decided to be an engineer. After coming to the US, 1st I thought of doing Architecture then comp. science, information tech. then physic, and finally stuck with Geography/GIS/Remote Sensing. I have become a "jack of all trade but master of none". Thank god, I got a really nice job as an application environmental scientist.

Six Strings-who do you work for? private or govt.?

i wanted to be an astronaut
too bad i got bad eyes, a bad heart, dodgy knees and not enough drive !!
how well do they pay teachers in nepal?

I work for the private company, whose clients are mostly government (DOD).

I went to high school in Nepal to become an engineer, but got into Environmental field after coming to the US. I do Environmental Consulting for mostly private clients.

did you have a major in biology bedrock? or anything related?

Still working on it.....

Actually I have a degree in Env. science itself. Did little bit of everything including bio.

I Have a same story here. When i was in school always wanted to be pilot but when i went to high school wanted to be aeronautical engineer then when i was doing A levels in hong kong.......i wanted to be director....Finally, after seeing and helping my dad for 6 months with his restaurant........got into it.....so went and got degree in hotel manangment but suppose to be manager , i became chef.....coz of passion and more money.

I am thank to god for providing good job finally.......huhhhhhhhhhhhhh

You know guys what a dream job would be to me? I would like to have a job of a test driver who get to drive all the cool cars and write a report on them or a fashion photographer who get to be surrounded by the most beautiful/hott creatures (Actually I did take some photography classes trying to persue this dream job but ...even made a dark room in my basement).
Anyone have any idea how to land on these career?

I heard that black truffle is expensive than 24k gold, and Frenchs love them. Uhmm, he must be loaded. I think I need to hang out in your rest...where is it?

Obiquitous bro...,
I guess you worked in Nepal in the computer field for few years..right? Then you went to US for MS and landed a job there....... hehehe

it is true that Black truffle is expensive than gold. We call in our language black gold. Recently, i bought fresh winter truffle ..............i paid 9 thousand HK dollar for KG. This is season of truffle now.....specially winter truffle have very strong smell. IN cooking you just use a little bit of truffle but u also add truffle oil. I love truffle oil man......i can live forever in smell of truffle. I have also made truffle menu..from starter to dessert it is truffle. I sold that menu for rich guys.....who come to my rest.....i sell that menu for 890 HK dollar per head.
Bro...sad man i am in lanteau, hong kong

Nah OOum, i was studying biology and was giving those medical exams, then suddenly i got a chance to come here then i studied Biology, then changed it to math, then changed into computer science. Havent done my MS just BS. Finally got a job. Every lil step in our life changes the whole picture. Looks like everything depends upon fate.

Wanted to become an IGP when I was a kid.
Then wanted to become an Engineer when I was a teenager.
And then wanted to become an Aeronautical Enginner when I came to US.
But studied computer science after hearing from people how easy and how well paying job it would land me into.
Graduated at the worst time of recent American Economy and faced difficulty finding a job.
Finally got one, and have been working as a programmer but hate it.
One day want to get into business.
But overall just want to have a simple happy life.

well, sano huda, i wanted to be a doctor or an engineer, tehi ta ho ni, baccha bela.
then, i also wanted to be in the showbiz; holly or bolly, didn't matter .
i badly wanted to be in the skies, tara pilot huna, my eyes le dokha/jhyaal sabai diiyo !
at times, i wished i was doing mass communications- journalism or broadcasting.
again, being very considerate to needy people and their problems, i thought i would make a good social worker.

but, tho i never wanted to sit "in a cubicle all day on a chair". ironically, i am studying towards doing just that. Accounting ........... yea, tell me about it !!!

Good thing about being in Environmental field is that you get to get out of office a lot. When I go to city during the work day, I realize what people sitting in the office are missing out. There that part of life that some people never ever see because they are sitting in office all day every day. But again, some times you have to be outside during bad weather.

When i was kid, i never had any dream at all but when i was in seventh grade, i wanted to be doctor then i met someone in 10th grade. I start to dislike doctor on 10th grade then i wanted to be bussinessman. Finished my undergrad and grad on computer science, currently working for bussiness company. Planing to go MBA pretty soon and want to become CFO someday for US based bussiness company.........
