    I'm going to compete in the Rolex, although I would LOVE to be an Olympic rider.

    Nothing. I actually never wanted to grow up.

    Divorce Lawyer.... no, really! From 6-12 that's what I wanted to be. Then it was pediatrician... then nurse.... then social worker.... now I am a Nanny and I love it. Turns out I just like taking care of kids. Best job ever!

    Teacher, nurse, writer, mother, actress. As an actress I am all of the above. :)

    Kids are great. I worked in a school for 6 years & I still work with the kids at my church. Also, I am trying to start my own program that involves children and theater. Dreams don't die, they only get bigger.

    Professional ice skater a la Dorothy Hamill. (Yeah I'm old LOL). When I realized that I started to late, I was willing to settle for skating as a hamburger in the Ice Capades. (I think McDonald's was featured on the ice that year) I did neither, but I do skate from time to time.

    A rockstar. A child psychiatrist. A biochemist living in the rainforests making medicine out of plants. Got the degree and realized that was completely not realistic. Lol

    In kindergarten I wanted to own an ice cream truck.

    In middle school I wanted to be a teacher, because I thought writing on the chalkboard was tons of fun.

    In high school I wanted to do something with psychology...

    Through an odd series of decisions and events I'm now a teacher, but I curse the classrooms without whiteboards because chalk is so messy!

    I am what I always wanted to be - a teacher. 21 years later, and I still LOVE it!

    I wanted to be a Veterinarian

    Im a law student... LOL

    Snap! (Almost) I was desperate to be a doctor for a very long time, and am now a law student. Although I'm on the Medico Legal association committee so I get to spend a lot of time researching medical dilemmas.

    I wanted to be an accountant, then a lawyer! Started studying Law at University but didn't enjoy it, so swapped to languages, then did an MA in Translation. Now I'm a secondary school French teacher :smile:

    I love my job, and it's the perfect job now as I have kids of my own.
