Do you chase your dreams until their true? When the going gets tough do you get going? Do you try try again till you get it right?

All these questions but no answers! So tell me fellow Menewsha members what do you do?

I for once chase my dreams to become a veterinarian! I love animals! But sometimes when it gets harder and tougher, I hold back those tears and work hard to get what i want! And at first if i don't succeed I try again and again! =D

I fight till I get what I want as well. I want to be better at drawing certain people, of course I can't all the time, so I just keep on trying until I say forget about it. I don't care much about it if I soon take interest in another character.

My mom wanted to become a vet :XD, then an accountant, what next? And yea, I used to not give up. Now I barely even have hope. It's like "oh, I lost. Kbai"

Yes Absolutely!! I chased my dream to become a GRaphic designer and I am one now I escaped my boring job as a checkout assistant and now have a kick ass Job!!!!

I also like to fantasize alot about unrealistic dreams but that never hurt anyone. And you will be a vet if you keep working hard and stay positive your attitude is brilliant !!!!! xxxx

Sometimes. Depends on how bad I want it.

I want to be valedictorian, and so far I know I'm at least in the top five. I study for tests that I know I'm going to do well on anyway to make sure I get a perfect score. I'm learning to check over my math tests before I hand them in. I really try hard.

I want to be a cross-country star. Okay, maybe not "star", but I'd like to hear my name on the morning announcements when they talk about who placed in the top 20 or 30. I'm not built for running, and less than a year ago I ran a 12 minute mile. But I'm working so hard on it. Last time I checked (like a month or two ago?) my mile was 7:42. I'm on my way! One minute and 12 seconds and I'll be at my goal mile time!

Other things I give up on easily. Writing, sewing, duct tape art, painting, woodworking-I gave up on all of those things even though I liked them, just because I sucked and didn't want to have to put effort in to do better.

I used to tell myself I would fight for my dreams.
now I sort of feel hopeless like nothing I do will matter in the end ...

aww thats bad kuro!!!

I want to be a veterinarian too!
I'm kinda doing bad in school at the moment, but I'm going to pursue this dream </determined>

Must . work . harder!! >D

it depends on what it is, I guess if I really want it then I try my very best at it, but if it's something miner and then it gets tough I just give up and walk away, plus I'm not a very determent person when it comes to my dreams >.>

=w=

I so want to be a Biological Anthropologist, or a Forensic Anthropologist.

I've never done very well in school, but I really am trying and aiming towards getting high scores. Bones, life, death, how people lived, who hurt, etc, these things are exceedingly interesting to me. You can tell how old someone is, their genes, what the fractures in ankles or legs were caused by, even what diseases wracked the body.

It seems amazingly interesting to me, and I can't get enough of hearing about it / learning about it

I'm working on my grades and learning as much as I can all the time, though I don't seem to be getting very good at it. My friend's mom's friend studies bones, and next summer I get to spend a day at work with her. So, it should be really fun / cool. =w= I just can't wait for that.. But in the mean time, I need to keep by gpa above a 88.

I've chased my dreams for a few things, but sometimes, things aren't meant to happen, and you just have to accept that.

Oh...I have a funny one here. This is...gonna be a bit complicated, so just bear with me here. I apologize for the wall of text.

I am a professional extra. I just recently earned that title, but it's really exciting for me, because it puts me in a good position for advancement in pretty much any area I want. It could put me through college...or it could get me a major film audition one day. I'm in the best position I've ever been in.

Now...I'm taking full advantage of this, hell yes. I just became eligible to join the Screen Actors' Guild, and I'm damn well going to do it, even if the initiation fees will put me into debt for the time being.

My dream is actually very nonspecific - my dream is to enjoy myself and make people happy at the same time. I have about a million ideas for how that could happen - I could be an entertainer, or an inventor, for some obvious examples...and the way things are going, I am damn well going to make one option or another come true.

But it's really interesting - suddenly, everything I could ever want to fulfill that dream is falling into my lap...now that I have the drive to fight for it.

Last month, I went on a life-changing vacation. I think just about everyone here knows that. But it was even more life-changing than I ever thought it could be.

See, I had a nasty soccer accident nine years ago - I think just about everyone here knows THAT, too. I was horribly depressed for...a good long time after that. I actually forced myself to "forget" it, too - so for several years there, I actually didn't remember WHY I was a useless emo lump. >.<;
The person I was going to see in concert had a very similar accident. Seeing what he made of himself after that? It motivated me a lot. And I mean a LOT.
And at those concerts, he gave this amazingly touching speech about never letting go of your dreams. Between that speech, and what I had learned just by watching his example, I swore I was never going to lose sight of what I wanted in life again. I made that promise to myself and to him.

And THEN...this is where it starts to seem like a cosmic conspiracy.

It was at the second concert that I made that promise. At the third, I aggravated my soccer injury again. I never fully recovered from that...it was just at a tolerable level for a while. But at the third concert, I got knocked down, and..."tolerable level" went down the drain.

I had a new job lined up for when I got back from this trip, but when I got home, I couldn't start because I was hurt.

THEN, while I could walk, but not really well enough to start a strenuous job like the one I was going to take, a major casting agency came to my town looking for locals to be extras in a TV show they're filming here.

I went down, put my name and photo in...and I got in.

I'm now in the perfect position to chase any dream I want...and that would never have happened if I hadn't been hurt, right after I promised that I would never lose sight of my dreams again.

It's ironic, really. But I love it.

That's awesome Fullmetal Phantom. ^^

As for my dream... It's going to sound incredibly schoolgirl stupid, but it's to fall in love. Not just I-love-my-boyfriend love, but real love--that soul-searing thing that makes you feel like you want to die but you want to live because you're addicted to that delicious pain. Yeah, I'm a hopeless romantic, I know. xD

But see, that's not really a dream I can chase. You don't chase love. Love finds you and pushes you down. You have to fall. That's just the way it works.

As for other things I want, well, it depends. I'm more of a passive person, so it takes a lot to make me fight for something.

I believe in what I believe, and usually nothing can stop me from doing so. Unless something is put in front of my eyes to chance my views.

I'll put in all of my effort and being into something I really want to happen.

Thats a really good choice of words right there!
