    I wanted to become a singer, writer, actress, filmmaker, hotelier ... still the same! I promised myself when I was 10 I'd never push my passions aside for anything else. Gotta' do what you love.
    Now that I'm "grown up" ... I have added to my list, "become Tom Ford's pet". :smile:

    @mminor77 I love your response, tbh. <3 LOL :)

    Honestly I don't want to grow up. I'd rather just have fun and be rowdy my entire life. Settling down just seems so boring to me I don't know why...I've always felt this way too. My parents and other family absolutely hate the way I want to live life!

    When I was a legitimate child (and not just a child at heart), I wanted to be a writer. I'm putting myself through nursing school, but I still wouldn't mind being a writer.

    When I was a kid I wanted to become a hairdresser, an actress, a singer, a dancer (really, I just wanted to be a triple threat).

    I'm currently a Speech Pathologist.

    My ultimate dream is to work as a Speechie and do dialect coaching on film and tv sets.

    Please don't go with the first choice, I've seen that career choice turn too many good people into egotistical A-holes that think they are better then everyone else....

    Actor or professional baseball player.

    Not going to give up on acting, plenty of time left in my life to still make that happen.

    I wanted to be a Rockette, but my mother told me I wasn't tall enough, so I decided to become a writer, because the best writers had their hearts broken by their overbearing mothers.
