looking into my trusty crystal ball

i need a career objective, where do i see myself in five years sort of schpiel. i've come to realise that's where i fumble in interviews. i stutter and ramble at this point. i don't know where i see myself in five days let alone five years. whenever they ask me this, i always feel i'm avoiding the question by discussing my education goals and add in that i'd like to be part of a company that supports the growth of their employees through encouragement to seek higher education. i try to make it sound like i don't expect them to foot the bill (even though it would be my preferred choice!). so what are my long-term professional plans? fucked if i know.
