    As a child, I wanted to be a dinosaur for a long time...
    Now I study medicine and I am quite happy with that too ;)

    So cute! I think a lot of children would like to be dinosaurs.

    I wanted to be a police officer.
    My Dad was a cop and I wanted to be one also.
    I joined the Army with the intention of doing four years and then joining the Police Academy.
    I was shot at while in Somolia and I suddenly changed my mind about intentionally putting myself in harms way.
    I am now a code writer.

    I wanted to be an artist. I wanted to raise Arabian horses, too, and I did, but more than anything else I wanted to be an artist.

    I wanted to be an investment banker - even though I had NO idea what that meant. I just knew that my uncle was one and lived the fab life in NY. Now, I can't imagine wanting to live in NY or work at any kind of finance-y super white collar type job.

    In our 8th grade yearbook, I said I wanted to be a Volcanologist.


    Not at all accurate. I'm a bartender. Although.. I do like to play with fire.

    I wanted to be president of the USA. I still kind of do. Now, being employed as an engineer, I want to eventually become CTO or CEO of a tech company.

    When I was five -Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader
    When I was nine- gymnast or a Broadway Dancer (Chorus Line lover here)
    When I was 10- a nurse (was a CNA for several years)
    When I was 17- a good mom to my unborn baby
    When I was 25- a baker with my own business
    I'd still love to be a baker...and I still haven't grown up so there's still time. Never lose sight of your dream.
