    • Childhood wishes, dreams? And now? If different, what changed it?

      Yes, well. My dream while I was a child was silly. But it was to become a hero such as Iron Man. I always saw the suits that the military are always working on, where they can lift more shit, run faster, jump farther, etc. Always held my interest. But shortly after, I gained a new perspective on ''heroes'' and ''villains''. I don't support the military. I don't support the troops. I don't support people trying to be heroes, because the world will just use those few heroes, since they can't help themselves. Or, that's how I started thinking of it back then.

      My dream now is just as silly because it simply will not happen. I want to work with Nintendo, be part of the company that brought my childhood's imagination to life. That made me into the gamer I am today. I don't like the Wii, or any system they've made like it. But I love nintendo. Always will. And I will always continue to hope that one day, I can be part of the Nintendo Legacy. Don't even care what'd I do.

      What's everyone else's wishes/dreams?

    • I wanted to be an author when I was younger, but as I grew up reading millions of books, I realized that i'd have to be REALLY creative to create something no one else has done, and I sure as hell am not creative now.


      My new dream now is to finish school and start my adult life/go to college,

      Another dream now is to reach 1k PSN trophies... I wonder which will come true first

      Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot.

    • At first, when I was elementary school, I've wanted to be a doctor. Helping people is something I've always wanted to do - but my "friend" told me that wasn't going to happen, because I was getting bad grades and I wasn't smart enough like her. Completely killed my dream. After that, I thought about being a drummer for a few years, but I didn't have a set I could even practice on, so I gave that up as well.

      Then high school hit - and while dealing with depression, I became very interested in reading and suicide. I was completely against it (even though I had those thoughts) and I always thought there was a way that someone could be saved but I couldn't do that if I was having these thoughts. So I had to figure myself out, and try to help myself before I could try to help anyone else. So I branched myself out and I placed these thoughts on paper.

      Twelve years later, and I'm still determined to help others - mainly to help them out of their suicide thoughts, by the way of words. At first, I thought of becoming a psychiatrist or a social worker, but I didn't have the money to go to school for that. Writing stories is one thing I know I'm great at - and I'm in the middle of finishing up a manuscript that I will be submitting to a publisher who is interested in it.

      I'm still trying to help others and trying to help save someone's life - but in a completely different way.
      Scream and be free.

    • I always wanted to be an inventor, i mean. why the hell not? You could create random shit like... Banana peeler machine.
      In the end i realized that my creativity is far from enough for this wish

      If you're angry, don't break anybody's heart, they only have one..... Break their bones, they have 206 of them

      On topic:
      -I wanted to become a fireman, still do.
      -I was certain I wouldn't be a smoker when I grow up - turned out I became one.
      -I wanted to become a vet and help out animals, still do.

    • I wanted to be a teenaged mutant ninja turtle. I used to put my mother's biggest scarf around my neck as a cape (I don't know when ninja turtles started wearing capes?) and jump and run around the apartment like a lunatic while shouting "COWABUNGAAAA"

      ...Nope, can't see what has changed 'til now :P
      "Cool guys don't look at explosions~"

    • Wanted to became a doctor...
      I don't want to be one anymore, most doctors look at their patient like a broken car... 'there is something wrong with it, I need to fix it'

      I'm being molded to something that resembles a nurse.
      Maybe I'll never fix that one problem, but nurses sure as hell fix other problems!
