During her teenage years, Daria (and others) have various ideas on how she might turn out:
We do know how Daria and other people viewed her future as turning out, at different points in her teenage years:
 
* In [[Highland]], Daria is interested in becoming an investigative reporter/enquiring photographer combo and is left frustrated when the [[Highland Herald]] will only let her be a fashion photographer "because ''I'm'' a ''girl''". ("[[Sporting Goods]]") Later on, in "[[Career Day]]", she was hanginghangs around the booth for an educational publishing company.
 
* In "[[The Daria Diaries]]", she expresses a desire to be a writer... "a bitter, angry hack who starts fights fistfights at cocktail parties."
 
* "[[WriteShe Wheregives itan Hurts]]"honest view showsof how she ''wants'' lifethings to be in "[[Write Where it Hurts]]", circaduring her junior S2year: in her story, she's a married woman and a crusading writer whose columns areinfluence influentialpeople. She's also getting on well with both her mother and Quinn.
