What do I plan to do with it: go to get my doctorate in experimental psychology and make all kinds of pioneering advances and shit in evolutionary psychological theory

Am I using it: not right now. Cause I'm unemployed.

I'm double majoring in computer science and math (my collage has enough overlap between the two it's only a few extra classes).

With any luck I plan to be a video game developer.

 I have no goddam clue. I haven taken college courses in highschool concerning art, but art is an odd thing for me: When I have a class for it I want to do it all the time and get great at it. When I don't have classes on it I never do it. I just never feel motivated to do it. I get no joy, only internal ridicule. But with a class everything is happy fun time all around.

 Programming is nice, but I have never really found a way of teaching myself anything beyond loops and variables. I made a simple game in Flash, but not only is it gone forever but it was sort of crappy. And in Flash.

 Then there was animation, but due to the whole art problem that is a goddam brick wall.

 My life is based around getting over this problem through college art courses. Or somehow finding that I goddam love architecture.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

I'm planning to double major in Psychology and Anthropology, two subjects that fascinate me.

Well, I'm in my first year at high school, so I guess it is quite early for me to begin deciding.

I am most likely to do something on Computer Science... Or Creative Technologies which is covers design, computing, digital animation, engineering, interactive and game entertainment, smart systems and robotics.

The only two things I am interested in that list is entertainment and robots.

However... If I chose those, then that means my study in IGCSE English and History will go wasted... Same with my A levels when I tackle them fully next year...

God damnit, I hate planning out my life!

Another future engineer here. Heading off to Auckland university next March to take enter the course for a Bachelor of Engineering with honors. Probably specialize in chemical and materials engineering, though the first year is basically a bit of everything across the engineering field so if I find something I enjoy, I can pick that up instead.

Games Graphics Design

I'm planning on doing crazy things with animation!

At the moment, I'm only a sophomore in High School, but I think I'll be able to get at least half the math required for that major done before I graduate. (How far does math go? Past Calculus 2?)

Oh, materials engineering... *twitch*
Ok, so its not that bad, just really not my kind of thing. It is pretty amazing what you can discover about a material just by looking at its microstructure though. And people are doing some crazy stuff with polymers and composites right now (eg, you can get carbon fibre everything nowdays), so i'm pretty sure that there's plenty of jobs for it around the place.
