    I wish I had a dream job per se...But want I want to do always changes, the older I get, the more schooling I receive, and more I change as a person. But, at this very moment, I would love to own a successful real estate brokerage, while making a nice chunk of change out of the stock market with my future (hopefully!) finance degree.

    But, my ultimate dream would have to involve working with animals. Have my own show on Animal Planet of some sort. So either or :)

    As an undergrad helper in a toxicology lab I was PAID to go catch largemouth bass for an experiment.

    We were monitoring a local river by measuring feminization of male bass and correlating that to levels of DDE (DDT breakdown product) and chlordane in their environment.

    My career has been all downhill from there...

    As a young girl I wanted to be a hairdresser, I could do amazing thing to my hair and people would be stunned.
    Then as a teenager I wanted to make jewelery.
    I have wanted to be so many things except my vision has made it unpossible.
    Now I´m thinking of taking english in uni and become a translator or something like that.

    I have always wanted to be a doctor. But thanks to my own medical issues and the high price tag on Med School, I don't know if I will be able to actualize that dream.

    Hmm, that's why I love molecular biology. It's all about getting locked in a lab.

    To be a nurse. To care for others when they cannot care for themselves. To be there for people at their worst or their best.

    But if I could do it all over again, a forensic pathologist!

    I used to fight my pushy dad's pressure to become a physician like him ("NO TOYS TIL CLASS IS OUT FOR THE SUMMER! YOU WILL GET A MATH TUTOR AND YOU WILL GO TO MEDICAL SCHOOL!" "But Daddy," I would whine, "I'm ten!" Classic.), so I convinced myself that I wanted to be an actress or a journalist for a long time. Now that I'm older, I've realized that deep down, I wanted to be a doctor all along. I am now pursuing an MD/PhD in neuroscience.
