growing up
I wanted to be an actress, or a singer, in a rock band or pop band. Then I wanted to be a Zoologist.
|
Well my Dad wanted me to be Nancy Lopez......chuckling....I liked playing golf but ummm back then the professional women wore them skirt/shorts thingamabobs and Blade wasn't gonna be caught dead in one of those get ups.
|
I always wanted to be a dancer. They were so graceful and beautiful.:blueheels:
|
A nurse but I'm glad I didn't become one (formally).
My mother has been a psy nurse for over 40 years and she's faced death threats from co-workers, patients, doctors, administrators... so I lost my romanticized feelings for that profession long ago. However, in real life, I'm a great fake nurse! (minus giving shots, no can do that) :cheesy: |
A model
A dancer An animal funeral director A professional bowler A pianist A flautist An artist A mechanic A professional special needs friend...have this written on a second grade assignment i still keep. And now I want to be a Jill of all trades...occupational therapist, professional doodler, massage therapist, handygirl, poet, bowler, and mom! :D Some day! |
i dunno if i posted in here before but if i had--oh well- i wanted to be an archaeologist for most of my junior high yrs...from grade school up till i dropped out of high school i wanted to be a baseball AND basketball star...then i just wanted it proved i was related to Donald and Keifer Sutherland :|
|
I wanted to be a doctor. More specifically a surgeon. I did manage to end up in healthcare :)
Now, if I could go back and do anything, I would do make-up professionally. I love it all from glamour to special effects. Working in Hollywood etc would be a dream come true. |

I do remember that I wanted to work with deaf children.

I wanted to be a vet. Then I went through a whole slew of human service/medical professions until I chose social work.
Now I wanna be a kept woman. ;) |
Imagine this....
A Daddy!! *Smile. Guess it shows that I follow through with my dreams. :cheesy: |

Marine Biologist
But then there was this problems with me and boats.. *green face* |
I'm a late bloomer
I have always wanted to be among published authors
(Fiction/non-fiction: philosophy, political satire, poetry, porn/erotica and a memoir) |
i changed my mind a few times over the years, lol. when i was in grade one, i printed a paragraph on wanting to be a policewoman - still have that piece of paper today, cute to read.. when i was a teenager, i wanted to be a marine biologist - i grew up near my father the outdoorsman and would have been a profession i might have loved, but.. life had other plans for me.. early adulthood, i knew i wanted to do something that helped people, but over the years i was a stay at home mom with my 2 children and fell in a rutt of sorts financially, which was hard to pull out of, but absolutely loved the time with my children as a single mother... finally, got myself out of said rutt a few years ago, and now work at a nursing home which i love, so now, i want to be a nurse.. and am applying to college this week - and feeling SO good about doing so! :) who knew i would only know what i really wanted to be when i was 38 years old, lol! ♥ |
When I was younger, I wanted to be a veterinarian, OR a scientist...that was such a vague term...little did I know...lol I just knew that science fascinated me. Still does. If only math weren't so peskily interlaced with it all....
Now...I'm pondering an education in Nursing Geology Anthropology.... More than likely I will do a combination of the 3.... |
I wanted to do everything! LOL But really I just wanted to spend as much time with my dad as possible and a lot of our "bonding time" was spent on weekends when I would go hang out with him at the barber shop - that is the path I chose for myself. I have a passion for my artistic trade.
|
For years when I was very young I wanted to be an archaeologist (it still fascinates me). Then I wanted to be a musician (flautist) until I realized that you have to actually do things like practice a lot.
|
when I was a girl, about 10, I saw the movie "Bliss" and when I saw Honey Barbara, that's who I wanted to be when I grew up.
I also wanted to be a photojournalist war correspondant (13) or a jet pilot. |
I wanted to be Cyndi Lauper. Or be Cyndi Lauper's wife.
|
I wanted to be an Astronaut. I still do :) I would give anything to go up in space and if I ever won the lottery that would be the first thing I would do...
|
Yes, I'm being very serious: A porn star/ Nude model
|
A veterinarian... even started schooling but life changed and I went into nursing instead... a whole other breed of animals!
|
I wanted to be an astronomer - the vastness of space fascinated me. I abandoned that goal when I found out that it generally requires a couple PhD's, that you rarely get to look through powerful telescopes in practice, and that the pay wasn't stellar. (I couldn't help myself, I had to slip that pun in...) :blush:
|
I never could make up my mind...guess I still can't, although I have been working with horses off and on for 15 years now and I'm happy with what I do.
|
Well at age 5 I picked up a piece of metal off the curb and said "someday I want to learn how to make things out of metal" I was a architectural Sheet Metal worker/foreman for 12 yrs.
at Age 8 I read the St. Francis Prayer and said " that's who I want to be when I grow up"... at age 15 I said I wanted to be a motivational speaker after hearing Leo Buscaglia speak so I could help people on a huge scale Now I am an adult student finishing my undergrad studies and I begin my Masters program in Marriage and Family Therapy in the Fall... so I am in process to making age 8 and 15 come to life, since age 5 dreams worked my joints out of commission |
A cowboy :fastdraq: , when I was youngest....which is now satisfied by the horses that eat us out of house and home. Later on..... a secret agent which was satisfied by my :police: law enforcement career. Now I am the successful owner, :praying: thank you lord, of a small country/convenience store which may or may not have been influenced by my mom (now deceased) in her desire to run a little country store.
|
After watching the tv show "Emergency" with Gage, Roy, Chet, and nurse Dixie, I wanted to be a nurse and wear the cute little nurses outfit with the hat. On the other end of the spectrum, "BJ and the Bear" made me want to drive trucks which I did for several years! I started nursing school but life got in the way. Medicine is still a great love of mine.
|
when I was younger I wanted to be a veterinarian, but I grew up and got involved with the wrong thing in life ... and now I wished I never grew up lolol
|
Ince I've been in the hospital so much, I wanted to be a nurse. I still help whenever I can, just can't do the medical part.
|
I wanted to be a veterinarian. My grandma told me it was too hard for me and I should shoot for something easier... I'll never forget that! :/
|
I was just talking about this...
The other night I was telling the story about the first meeting with my kindergarten teacher, Miss Edwards--circa September 1969. My mother took me to the Meet-and-Greet the day before so all the children could see the classroom, meet Miss Edwards, play with toys--you get the idea...
At one point, Mom calls me over and Miss Edwards engages me in conversation; she asks me what I want to be when I grow up...(I look up at her with my big blue eyes and blond hair) ---and very clearly state "I'm going to be a Black gospel singer." It was as if time had stopped entirely. I remember the stunned look on Miss Edwards face and the horrific one on my mother. Also, I wasn't even raised as a Christian !! |
I was determined to be the first lady Sheriff. I was going to ride the range with my metal star badge pinned proudly to my chest. I started riding when I was 5, I had a Jane West action doll...it wasn't a stretch. I was enamored of the old westerns, charmed by the idea of having dusty boots and eating chili off a metal plate prepared by some grizzled guy named Cookie.
|
When I was 5 or 6 I saw the movie Arabian Nights and just knew I wanted to be a warrior surrounded by a harem, just love those women.
|
I love the thought of little us dreaming of the future.
|
When I was really little I wanted to raise cows (farmer?) and then when I was around 7-8 I wanted to be a truck driver (specifically a garbage truck driver ;) Then as a teen I thought nursing was for me, but that morphed into being a flight attendant so I could travel. :)
|
A mom.
Instead, I found my imagination and turned it into creativity. Studied to be an interior designer, which lead to design, display, marketing.....to da..retail! |
