    I wanted to be a teacher, which I am. Or a zoo keeper, which I am not.

    A marine biologist or oceanographer. Then I got my period and was afraid to use tampons so I quit the swim team. True story.

    Wanted to be a veterinarian. Changed my mind when I realized blood and body fluids were not my thing.

    Interior designer. I collected paint chips from Home Depot and my version of playing with Barbies was setting up their homes perfectly and then being done.

    Lawyer or a cyber security specialist (I was computer geek.)

    Almost went into law, but decided on biomedical science instead. Regretting it now and I'm going for a MSc. in cyber security next year instead.

    Same. I wanted to name my practice "Bow Wow, Meow Meow, Dog & Cat Clinic." Didn't happen.

    A police officer/comedian/coffee shop owner. I'm pretty sure I could have worked that out if I wasn't such an underachiever.
