If I knew I could not fail, I would invest a lot of my money into setting up a non-profit organization that was geared specifically to rehabilitating abandoned animals/puppy mill rescues. I would set up locations in each state, with approximately 15 acres, fence it in, divide it up, and round up some volunteers to monitor/train/exercise them. I would work with vet clinics to reduce vet costs, and in return set up a referral program for them so they would get prolonged business with adoptees. There would also be a house that would actually be the office front, specifically designed to accomodate cats.
All basic behavioral issues would be addressed, along with more intensive work on those that show serious signs of behavior issues. I would offer low-cost training seminars to adoptive parents, boarding, and grooming. The goal of this would be to reduce the huge influx of “pound puppies and kitties” that can’t be saved before they are euthanized, or taken by all of the raging diseases that are running through pounds these days. I would establish my company as “the” place to take your pet to, and of course would be the biggest aide to all the other “no kill” shelters in the area.
Maybe someday I’ll be there…

I’d move to Switzerland with my boyfriend and our little guy. I’d invest all my money into local cheese farms that raise happy healthy cows. I would garden while my son was at school and take care of orphaned animals.

As of this moment right now thinking in the short term I would go to the New Moon auditions that they are holding here on Saturday.
Long term…. I’d move to Japan and learn Japanese (which I’ve tried and it’s so hard!) and work there as a Psychologist instead of this little town I’m in right now.

I would find a way to accumulate enough money to pay off my own debts from school (damn student loans) and those of my sister, as well as my parents… And then I’d be a full time writer =).

I’d save the world from itself. I’d end the wars, I’d cure the sicknesses, I’d nourish the hungry and I’d find the lost. I’d do anything and everything.
But if there’s something stopping you accomplishing anything, it’s you.. and the government =P Hehe..

If I could not fail, I would drop everything and travel and work on my goal to visit at least 75% of the countries in the world. Not just be in, but truly visit and get to know. When I got back from my travel, I would run to Broadway and sing my heart out in musicals for a few years. Then, I would move to Munich and open up an organic bakery with my best mate that’s open 24/7 and deliveries cookies at all hours of the night in cute boxes with ribbons that I design myself. I’d simultaneously work for the U.S. Embassy and perfect my German. Hopefully, the bakery would gross enough net income that I could buy myself a beautiful château-ish house in the mountains as well as a beautiful modern loft in downtown Chicago for when I feel the need to be in the states.

I would move to Munich and open up a pie shop, while persuing my dreams as a ballet dancer.
At some point during my days living in a cottage of Germany with my main squeeze, I’d write a world law stating that all wars be solved with Rock Paper Scissors and of course, I’d cure world hunger, too.

Play the lottery, win 25 million dollars, invest it, live off the interest, hire my friend Nick as my personal assistant so he can quit his crappy job in a call center (and put his little girl through private school), and give a load of money to our local animal shelter. (along with the usual paying off of debts, re-doing of our bathroom and kitchen, travel, yada yada yada)

February 5th, 2009 at 4:54 pm
I’d first invest some money in some high risk accounts which will produce what I like to call a “shit-ton” of cash. Then I’d be set…a lot of what I want to accomplish needs MONEY (at least to just live on), of which I never have extra. AND, having been one of those people that was seriously in debt for awhile, and has now crawled out of that hole using straight up blood, sweat and tears, I can’t just “pick up and go” to make my dreams come true. It sucks, but that’s the way it is for me. I don’t have anything or anyone to fall back on…except for perhaps prostitution, which is always super fun.
However, if I did have the funds to invest in myself, I would never work for anyone again, would do something with dog rescue, then move someplace warm and write and do a little acting. Also, prostitution, except I wouldn’t accept money for my services, so it’d TOTALLY BE OKAY.

+Step One: Get Betty Page bangs.
+Step Two: Start taking overtime classes so I can graduate even sooner, perfect my portfolio, and send it to Lip Service with my top ten reasons why they CAN’T LIVE without me designing/making patterns for them.
+Step Three: Live happily ever after as a young goth/alternative designer. *sigh*

I would apply to every single college I’ve ever wanted to attend, and since I wouldn’t fail, I’d get accepted to every one! But of course, I’d only want to go to the one I like best: Stanford.
There I’d take all the courses and learn whatever I wanted to. I’d perfect my French and Chinese and then learn Latin and Arabic. Then I’d find a job in my dream career (currently undecided lol) and work/travel abroad, honing my language skills at the same time! I think I’d live in Paris, then Shanghai, then Tokyo then Rome and London and Cairo. of course, I’d schedule it so I’d never be too cold or too hot. I’d also travel quite a bit to other places.
I’d also make tons of money in various ways and then spend some and then give some and then donate some. I’d volunteer for Doctors Without Borders (<– something I’ve wanted to do for a while now!) if my dream career happened to be in the medical field…
basically, fulfill my dream life.

February 5th, 2009 at 7:25 pm

Write my novel and get it published, keep control over the movie rights, and write the film adaptation, then win an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Learn Gaelic, Russian, and Chinese. Travel the world. Live in Italy. Learn to dance the tango, ice skate, and sew. Move to Hollywood and become a film actress and screenwriter. Design clothes. Learn to draw. Buy and pay off a house and car. Learn to sing opera. Become a “quadruple threat”: dance, sing, act, and write.

As a child, I used to sit for hours drawing amazing dresses with beautiful women in them. I’d also draw great plans of houses with slides and ladders instead of stairs.
If I knew I could not fail, I would become a fashion designer of beautiful gothic fairy dresses with layers of tulle, and divine corsets. Then I would build my dream house with multiple ball pits from my wages.

Model.
Model.
Model.
Model.
Model.
It’s my life dream.
It’s my calling.
I have to model, or I’ll die.
I’d hire a photographer.
I’d buy a bunch of clothes.
I’d model my brains out.
I would give much money back to the people who’ve helped me.
If I couldn’t fail,
I would reach for my dream.
And;
Pierce my ears.
Dye my hair red.
Become a graphic designer.
But still…
Modeling is my top priority. :)

I’d illustrate my own comic book which I currently lack the emotional strength in my talent to accomplish. I’d also finish writing several of my scripts. Tell the boy that I like that I love him and actually let my emotions out in acting instead of being reserved.

[Reply]
February 5th, 2009 at 10:40 pm
I would purchase and restore an old house in Italy ( a la Under the Tuscan Sun) and I would run it as a bed and breakfast.
Or maybe…..
I would go to Medical school instead of finishing the nursing program I’m in right now.
I find my creative carefree side competing with my logical and intelligent side. Maybe I could be a doctor in a small Tuscan village while also owning and running a bed and breakfast. :)

What a great question. I think I’d get my masters, try out to be the leading lady in Orlando Bloom’s next movie ;), go sky diving, I agree with Kiri and try out for Cirque Du Soleil (that’s be so much fun), I would design and make all my clothes, I would paint a beautiful mural anywhere I chose to do so, I would convince all the world leaders to stop fighting over petty differences and instead put all our military resources into helping out all the people and animals of the world (since nobody would need a military), I’d convince all people to be respectful and kind to everyone, I would create cars that ran on water and create a filtering system that would clean water easily and cheaply, and I would find the time to do all of this and still live a happy and relaxing life. Yay for goals!! =)

* Paint more pictures of erotic beauty
* Write the story that’s in my head
* Make more friends
* Find a more inspiring and better paid job
* Move out of my shared house to a flat of my own (would require more funds)
* Sell my services as an image consultant
* Stop being afraid of living life because time is running out!
* Dance as a way of keeping fit!

I’d finish learning French. I’d write, illustrate and publish children’s books, as well as creepy Gothic picture books for adults. My life would become to do with art, and I would take my Roaccutane course and dye my hair blonder knowing they could only improve the situation without side effects. I’d tell the person I like that I like them and it would work out. I’d be confident, more than I ever thought, and I would feel so successful and happy.

I would move to CA & become a famous actress. Then when I got paid & had completed a couple of films, I’d make my 2 independent movies that I want to make, 1 zombie, 1 futuristic action. After that I’d open my nightclub. I still don’t know exactly where I want to do that yet. Then I would enroll in school to become a vet while acting on the side.

February 7th, 2009 at 3:50 am
Wow. So much! If I could sing, I would love to be an opera singer. But I’d have to get a different voice. Or a ballerina, but then I’d need to have coordination.
I would definitely start my own fashion line. In an instant. I would love to do that!
Once I’m wealthy I’d buy an old palazzo in Tuscany, and decorate it with really cool, eccentric pieces I’ve collected over the years. This palazzo would also have an accompanying vineyard, and my boyfriend (by then my husband) and I will make wine and open a small restaurant, that only has a few daily specials that my husband makes. I bake the bread and desserts. Also, I have written several novels that have changed people’s lives. If I could do only one of these things, it would be that, but I’m hoping I’ll do that anyway. I also have cats. Which doesn’t seem like it’s hard to achieve, but my boyfriend is severely allergic to them so somehow I cure him of this.
Also I find a cure for cancer.

ANYthing without fail? …get married. I’ve had a fear of marriage since my parents’ ugly divorce when I was a baby–seriously, I can’t remember them together–and for the longest time I wanted a wedding sans husband & commitment. But since the marriage won’t fail I’d guess it’s time to tie the knot!
Then I’d do EVERYTHING. Do SFX makeup, write and write, paint again, go back to school which I plan on doing in the next few weeks anyway, become a sex therapist…all the things I’ve wanted to be/do when I grew up!

Because I did all three study’s at once I would be (~)25 when I’m finished. After that I would go to Korea to marry the hottest Korean dude out there. We would have lovely Korean-european-kids. I would make my living with Photography and raise my kids the best because I know what they are thinking (remember the psychology studie? xD).

I would become fluent in French and Estonian for starters, be a romantic fantasy novelist, be an actress, travel the world, own a spa and a raw food cafe that I would manage initially then just own/oversee, marry my true love and have 2-3 beautiful children, have a beautiful home in the mountains as well as as a villa in the islands, be a practicing yogi and raw foodist, meditate every day and teach my loved ones to live a healthy holistic lifestyle too, and just live off my investments and love, eventually.

I would continue to pursue my dream of becoming a neurosurgeon ^_^ and since I would not fail I would be the happiest girl alive! I would be a neurosurgeon and I could save so many lives. I would succeed in discovering cures to AIDS and cancer!
I would also love to travel around the world and see all that the beauty of it. I know there are so many less fortunate people so I could go to Africa for example with the cure for AIDS and help them. If I could not fail I would not waste it on greed. I would make sure I did something really spectacular.

I would win back the heart of my ex boyfriend. We haven’t talked in two months. I miss him terribly, however I know he is happy.
If not that then I would try to win the heart of the guy I’ve had a crush on since I was 16.
I like nice guys, and I am a nice girl, all my nice guy friends, wind up with not nice girls. I just want to see them happy, my ex and my very close guy friend both deserve nice girls. Sad they aren’t attracted to them =(
