    • Always dreamed of getting into music, always wished i could sing but sadly cant, so i picked up guitar instead in order to try and keep going towards that dream. Years later, i still play guitar, but i'm now aiming towards a career in programming as the computer commanded my attention to often.

    • I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was young because I love animals. As I got into more science classes I realized I was more likely to kill them than actually help them. I bounced back between many career choices but I've finally settled on translating/interpreting. Not a career choice I would have considered before, but I love languages :D
    • When I was young(er) I wanted to be the Joker. I did not know that he was a murderer and a sicko ( ofc I knew he was a villain), I just noticed that he had/has awesome laughters and quotes and I liked it. He is still the best villain ever, but I don't want to be a murderer that's all.

      Now: Well I have to say I want to learn to play on the drums, but I cannot afford that and I have no space to have a drum kit.
    • When I was younger I wanted to do a lot of different things: be a teacher, pianist, doctor, etc. I'm still not sure now :P

    • Mine was to work at a zoo, but I've changed it since then. Now I want to become an animal trainer and zoologist :)
      "What is a wolf truly worth
      Without its fangs
      Who's hunted down by children
      With sticks and crooked blades
      And turned into a story
      And a token for the few
      That it slayed before it lost
      The only weapons that it knew?" ~~ "Wolves"- Jamie's Elswhere
    • When I was 7(2004), I wanted to be a lawyer(i know right? xD) then when we got a playstation and i got addicted to video games, i wanted to be like crash bandicoot xD (that was my favorite game before). Then I wanted to be like Yugi-Oh with the cardholder in the arm or something(can't seem to remember it right now, LOL).

      I also wanted to be a keyblade master and a jedi. I do, until now. :P
    • I wanted to be an astronaut when I was little and still kinda do, I've always be fascinated by space but I came to the realization that I couldn't take the huge spinning chair they put you in. I wanted to be a veterinarian but I'm terrified of giving animals shots.

      Currently I want to be a software engineer but since I recently found out I'm dyscalculic I don't know if that'll happen either :S
    • I used to want to be a vet, then a doctor

      But then I found out that I can't stand blood and stuff like that...

      So then I was absolutely sure I'd be a singer

      But then I found out that I can't sing...

      So then I focused on acting

      But then I found out that I can't act either...

      SO THEN I started drawing.
      I improved
      But then I realised I just wanted it as a hobby.

      SO THEN I started writing
      and I really love it
      I'm writing a book
      but who can make a living from that and nothing else, unless you're J.K. Rowling?

      So then I was back to square 1.

      Only recently have I realised that I want to be a masseuse, a historian, and/or an archaeologist :'D completely different what I've been studying/focusing/wasting time on my whole life oTL .... I also want to travel long-term too at some point.
