...music definitely, but you can't really make much of a living that way. Maybe I'll be teaching somewhere or teaching a youth orchestra somewhere. But the composition I'd like to keep up, but using my other music skills. I guess with not going to a conservatory school, I really missed the intense teaching aspect. Here, music is geared towards scholarship about music rather than actual playing. I would want to live in some city with interesting musical stuff going on...New York, Chicago...somewhere in Europe...

I'll go back now and see that there's no one on the streets and then find out the entire town is at the high school for the huge basketball tournament...
...feel that my idealism is particularly selfless. I basically want to do the Peace Corps to figure out important things about myself and my capacities. Yet, after law school, I don't want a lawyer's life--it sounds like a certain type of hell to me. I want to be able to do exactly what I want to do. There is no point in being rich if you are unhappy...
