When you were young, what did you want to be when you grow up?

A cowboy? Astronaunt? Proctologist?

I wanted to make video games in Japan :D

Is it sad that I want to be a computer programmer? Or younger than 17 or 16 or whatever? I guess I wanted to be a rock star or professional wrestler :rolleyes2

Archaelogist.

I remember this specifically, because my dad told me, when I was in the first grade, what that word was. Then I repeated it to my first grade teacher, who didn't know how to spell it. Good times.

Then I went to artist, then a comic strip artist, then game developer, then network technician. That's my current goal, but I'll probably end up in tech support. Yay PEBKAC.

What kind of musician, Sam? I didn't know you played an instrument.
That's rare :)Is it? I always admired my grandma and always wanted to be like her as long as I can remember.

That's more of a boy stereotype. :tongue:

I was afraid to be an astronaut, I thought I might want to work in mission control instead--safer. But now, I sorta *want* to go into space.

In kindergarten I said I wanted to be a nurse, but I didn't really. And I definitely don't now.

Ditto. I loved dinosaurs and digging and big words so it all kinda came together. Ah, to be young again.

I always wanted to work for Nintendo when I was younger. It was my life long dream. This was mainly because I love Nintendo & when I was younger I used to play a great deal of Nintendo games - I was pretty much brought up on it. I got my first Nintendo game when I was just one year old [Obviously I got it with the console & controllers]. Ever since I got the console I cherished it & always took care of it as a young child, & I still have it now & it's in great condition. Pretty much all my life I've wanted to work for Nintendo, the thought has never run stray from my head. But as I only really have Cs in my GCSEs the opportunity is quite tight for me.

Pro hockey player! I thought I was going to be the "Next" Wayne Gretzky, when I was young.

In high school that eventually changed to Engineer, which is what I am now.

An astronaut, then a scientist, then an ice skater, then a singer, which is still something I want to be. :)

Actually since I was young I always wanted to be an engineer. Of course, I always wanted to be a soldier and a professional football player too, and maybe a professional male stripper, and hey, look where I am now. Got the soldier part down, working on the engineer part, played football in high school (and started, which is good enough for me), and I have realized that nobody wants to see a hairy guy strip.

Body Wax.

From the age of talking to 10 or 11 I wanted to be what Hsu wanted to be. Then from about 10-13 I wanted to be an actress/singer/doctor/psychologist/teacher. Then from 13 to now I've wanted to be a journalist. Not a writer, not an author, not a broadcaster, not a reporter; a journalist. I want to write for the newspaper. All the newspapers. Gimme.
