Because if we all did what we dreamed about when we were a little kid....then there would be like a billion firemen and nobody working in offices creating shit that we all need.
I'm kind of glad that I never became a professional BMX rider. |

As a child, I wanted to grow up to be an international playboy.
Of course, I could never fulfill that dream for our family was poor. Anyway, I struggled with this for several years until I decided to just pick up and go on with my life and, rather than actually become an international playboy, I instead subscribed to Botswana's version of Playboy; Goat Herder Quarterly.

I think that life happens. Some go with the flow, while others make things happen. I didn't dream of doing what I'm doing. I just ended up here through decisions and necessity.
What did I want to be when I was little? A stay at home wife/mother and published author. |

I honestly don't remember what I wanted to do as a little kid. For a while, around junior high age, I wanted to go to the Air Force Academy and become a pilot. Even made a trip to Colorado Springs to visit after the 8th grade. In high school, I decided on accounting/business but that fell through when I got to college and hated my accounting classes.
Dicked around for a while and finally went back to school and graduated with a degree in electrical engineering at the age of 30 and have been working in that field ever since. Took the long way around, I guess. |

As a kid I didn't really have any thoughts of what I want to be when I grow up. I couldn't find anything I loved until I was a Sr in high school. I was in a school play called See How They Run. It's a comedy. The first time one of my lines made the audience laugh, I new I wanted to be a performer. I was able to follow that dream for about 15 years and absolutely loved it. I became a fairly big fish in a small pond. Then I moved to CA to continue pursuing the dream but at a different level. Didn't work out. I have a nice career going here, but it doesn't fulfill my passion. At least I had 15 years of it though. When I retire, I'll hit the community theaters and find my passion again. |

I have the most awesome profession, ever since I was a fetus I was drawing, and now It's what I do for a living.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be an Artist, an Astronaut, or a Rock Star. So I got what I wanted... to paint, get high, and rock the **** out! lol Nice to see you making good use of your thread ration. lol |

I had a similar experience. On my very first day they told me to have hot, wild monkey sex with this great looking girl. Sounded like my dream job until I found out they were all going to hang around and watch. I said, "Hey you pervs, I'm outta here!" and that was the end of that. |
