    Default What did you want to be for a career as a child?

    What did you want to be when you were younger?

    I originally wanted to be some of these for career options, and still do, but most are unlikely:

    Photographer: I love make art with a camera, and showing the world a new and exciting photo. More details, but this is a sample.

    Genetic Engineer: I love the idea of combining monsters and people, and /or making monsters, or Genetic Upgrades. Imagine if you had Wings, Claws, and some other awesome stuff.

    Explorer: I love going to new places and exploring wilderness with friends, but almost never get to do that.

    Cartoonist: I really love to draw, and make art.

    Model/Actor/Singer: I love doing all of those.

    There were more, but those are some of My favorite types of stuff.

    What did You want to do?

    Veterinarian. I always loved animals and science.
    Actor - I guess this is why Law School is a possibility still
    Pilot - Inner Ear Disorder grounded me. I used to love jumping out of trees and off roofs.
    Soccer Player
    Medical Doctor
    I would say singer but it was just a fun hobby.

    Corporate America is really a bummer sometimes. I ultimately chose obscure fields where I would have control over my endeavors.

    Agreed. You should do what you want to do instead, as opposed to the other stuff, since you will be miserable if you do a job you despise.

    Absolutely. To add to your other thread: I love the law but not lawyering. I really just love setting goals and meeting them, albeit with a lot of fun static on the side.

    Paleontologist(excuse spelling)- digging up dinosaur bones!!
    Artist- wanted to be the next Van Gogh
    Animal Trainer- loved those animals!
    Vet- wanted to help sick animals
    Writer- still pursuing
    Supermodel- still kind of a dream, but never going to happen
    Photographer- liked taking pictures
    Model Agent- If I can't be a supermodel, might as well help those with more talent.
    Cinematographer-kind of like a photographer only making art out of moving things.

    No way, because if you continue to persue those dreams, that means there are more cameras and tapes that get to record your hotness!

    Is there really such thing as a "Liscence To Kill"? If so, where would you get them?

    No way. I still say you'll have your cake and eat it too. You have a free spirit that must never be broken. I'll have to admit I wish you didn't have the thing for rock stars etc, I have seen the flip side. At any rate, you are a sexy woman who should wake up each day and do exactly what captures your bliss.

    An actor. I've acted on stage quite a few times and worked as a model. Once I grew up I wanted to work with books and write; I've now done both have my booksellers qualification (from working in Harrods in London) and have had many critical articles published. I always wanted to cook, so I learned that too a few years ago, and now I just relax and drive people around!

    I never ended up being one thing in particular. Thankfully, I did manage to become financially independent and call my own shots now. I ended up going back to school in an area that I loved and will go from here ...

    Actually the way I meant it was "A small Island Nation"...before it was used to name a chain of stores it was a less than kind way to call small island nations ruled over by opressive governments.
