    I dreamed of being an archeologist exploring Egypt or some otherwise exotic place.... I am now a teacher which can be quite adventurous at times!

    I wanted to be a singer/dancer. I loved watching the Solid Gold show on TV in the 80's. Come to find out later in life, that I was diagnosed wtth a 'tone defficiency" so apparently, that means I am tone def to some degree.. Ironic, no one ever told me that I would NEVER be a singer. lmao

    I wanted to be a trash collector, I figured it would be:
    *exercise outdoors (if not in fresh air)
    *you got to ride on the back of the truck with a good buddy
    *you got your turn driving the big truck
    *if you didn't like people, you could bang their trash cans really loud

    But alas, plastic trash cans and machine operated trash collecting machines, so I considered MLB batting coach or physical therapist before becoming a history teacher.

    I remember wanting to be an Astronomer. And then a Paleontologist. I'm neither but I still love learning about both.

    An Architect...then I remembered that I can't draw.

    Oh well, on to Plan B

    that can be fixed with a few weeks of drawing classes, also technical drawing is not the same as artistic drawing. Go for it!!
