    A surgeon. Specifically heart or brain.

    I don't do well with blood, however, so that was kind of a problem. :brokenheart:

    as a kid, teen, whatever, I'm sure 95 percent of us did not want to be what we are now.

    What did you want to be? (beyond ballerinas and firefighters)

    I always wanted to be a dentist. Then it turned into being a forensic dentist... I have a weird obsession with teeth.


    A Neuro-Surgeon...Ended up a Lawyer. And it fits who I am; I am an Advocate by Nature, have a bit of the "Gift of Gab and Blarney..." and don't mind being an "underdog, hella fighter!"

    I wanted to be an actress or a singer. I loved both. I was good at both (in my head at least). I mean, even now, if I could be an actress, I would be. Being able to step on stage, assume a new identity and get to live in that one for a little while was such a wonderful feeling. To be able to escape MY reality for a few hours was great. I still love the smell of the theater and the feel of the crappy costume material. The tension in the groups within the group. The ones that always wanted to be more and the ones that always wanted to fade into the background. ..... I could have done it too....... I know I could have.

    For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a biochemist. Not just any biochemist but more like the movie Medicine Man. I cant think of anything cooler than living in the rainforest and finding medicines. I even went to college for it. But reality sets in quick at that age. lol

    I always wanted to be a vet until I went with my mom to take our dog and cried because they gave him a shot. Too emotional for that line of work. Now I'm an accountant.

    I wanted to be Rockette- until I figured out that you have to be thin and be able to kick really high. Neither are my strong attributes. So now I am a lawyer.

    One of my good friends in high school wanted to be Rockette---she had all the right attributes and could kick perfectly, but she was only 5'2"...their height requirement is 5'7" I believe :cry:

    I wanted to be an Author, or the first female President. I'm going to school for Creative Writing and German right now. The presidential thing is not very appealing anymore; although I would like to make a difference in people's lives somehow.

    My designs on being a high priced gigolo fell through when, well, I didn't get any clients. :sad:

    I wanted to be a Chef. Well before all the reality craze. Grew up around restaurants and food.
