You should study in aeronautical engineering and then become a pilot. It's the best way, generally speaking.

When I was younger I used to want to be a pilot. I can, without a doubt, fly a plane today, as I have taken classes. But I unfortunately cannot pass a hearing test, so I couldn't do it.

I don't know where that is, but I think its in America. Isn't it against the American constitution to have labor camps? Especially since people are forced into labor camps.

My dream career would be a Dancehall Singjay. But given the unpopularity of Dancehall, and the lack of exposure it gets outside of Jamaica, that will probably never happen :(

My more realistic dream career would be in Urban Ministry
