    A boy. Seriously. They got all the fun toys, and no one teased them for being flat chested. Lol. I was a tomboy and hated pink; still hate pink. Def no longer flat chested though. :)

    I wanted to be happy. I still am trying to find happiness with no luck.

    As for jobs, gymnast, ballerina, teacher, veterinarian and artist.

    I don't want to be any off those things now. I don't want to work. I hate work. I don't have a passion for anything except eating food. Sadly.

    The main thing I decided I most of all wanted to do was dance/theatre. That's what I do. I also wanted to be a violinist, that didn't happen. I quit violin.

    I only wanted to work with animals. Primarily horses. A veterinarian or horse trainer were what I thought I wanted to be. Could not make the kind of grades to go to school to be a vet, plus could never have afforded the schooling. I did become a professional horse trainer for a time. Have also worked as a veterinary assistant at a race track.

    Now I still do some work with horses but my real job involves work with research monkeys. As a kid I never even dreamed such a job existed. I love it!
