    Default When I grow up, I wanna... Oh, wait.

    What was the one thing you wanted to grow up to be as a kid? Now imagine that, hey, you actually are what you wished for, whether you actually still want it or not.

    I personally wanted to become a game show host, having grown up on High Roller and The Price is Right, and I still think I'd make a pretty good host with my kind of personality.

    How do you think you'd do in whatever job you wanted?

    When I was a kid I wanted to grow up to be an elementary school teacher or a model. I'm neither, but I think that I would have been an okay teacher.

    I wanted to ride an A-Bomb, and take a photo...and i wanted to be a penguin...which I still intend to be, but the cynics are really staring to bring me down.

    I'm halfway there - I have a camera, and a cool room.

    As a kid, my dream was to be a ballerina. Pink tutu and everything

    I took lessons for years, performed in shows, danced in competitions, but it stopped being my "dream" a long time ago. I love dancing and performing but I never had the kind of dedication one would need to be a professional ballet dancer. It was always something I enjoyed doing on the side, never something I could devote my life to.

    When I was a kid I had this crazy dream about becoming an animator for Disney! All my life I've had good skills in the drawing department and everybody (My friends) said that I should be an animator for Disney. One of them even went so far as calling me "Disney-tegner" (Disney drawer). Well, obviously my childhood dream hasn't come true...yet

    So far I'm thinking rock star, gigalo, or professional bum. Possibly a subtle blend of all three. I'll let you know how it goes.

    I wanted to be a wizard. Seriously.

    I will do this. Nothing in my life matters except this. No moment in my life exists except this moment. I am born in this moment, and if I fail, I will die in this moment.

    When I was younger I wanted to be a model, a fashion designer, a postman, a lorry driver, a bus driver, work with horses...that's about all I remember. xD

    I wouldn't have done too well at most because I wouldn't fit model criteria, don't know or care about fashion, can barely maneuvre (sp >_<) my own car, let alone a lorry, wouldn't know my directions to drive a bus, and really don't want to work with smelly horses. The postman thing still might be fun though, if this web design thing doesn't work out ^_^

    When I was a kid, I wanted to be a super-hero, but now I love music and so I'm going to go and study audio engineering. Oh the times have changed... =(

    I wanted to be an architecht. I certainly wouldn't mind it as a job, but biological and health sciences have long ago taken over as my main interest.
