When you were little what did you want to be and what do you do now?
I wanted to be a lawyer/psychiatrist/doctor... I was ambitious.
Now I'm a stay at home mom but I start school to get my ADN in the Fall.
What about you?

When I was little I wanted to be a lot of things...teacher, ballerina, veterinarian. I almost went into forensic science after high school, but I decided I wanted a family with my boyfriend (now husband) more than a demanding career so now I'm a stay at home mom. Love every minute of it.0

I wanted to be a comedian. So I became one. But eventually I realized I couldn't do it professionally and live where I live, so I hung it up and got a real (office) job. Good times though.0

I wanted to be a psychologist, hairstylist, and a flight attendant. Didn't have the grades for a psychologist, the height for a flight attendant, but I did become a hairstylist. Now I am a stay at home mommy and I do hair for friends and family.0

When I was very young, I wanted to be a vet. Then, I developed an allergy to cats.
Writing has always been my thing, but I never saw it as a career so I grew up not really having a plan, and just working on developing the skills that interested me, such as web design and media alongside my writing.
I did a media-related degree, specialising in research, thinking that would be my career. I planned to keep web design and writing as my hobbies. Three years on, I'm a writer. My web design skills are helping my career, and the thing I did a degree in is now my hobby! It's perfect this way, so I'm glad it worked out as it did.0 -
