Hey guys,

Just wondering...what did you guys wanted to be when you were a kid? And are you doing that right now?

When I was a kid, I always said that I'd be a doctor when I grow up. But I'm so far from being a doctor! lol. I'm a call center agent now. As I grew up I realize that I don't like the fact that I'll be responsible for someone else's life.

How about you guys? What did you wanted to be as a kid? And are you doing that now?

happy

I wanted to be a professional hockey player or a TV weatherman. Needless to say, I'm not either but I still love hockey and am amazed by weather.

When I was younger I wanted to be some many things. I guess when I was real young my parents told me I wanted to be a polit. I am not sure I would do that now. I also wanted to be a photographer, I guess I could still do that. Right now I work online and I really do enjoy it, I hope that I can really make my own business someday from being online and then I will never have to work for someone again. happy Happy mylotting to you.

I wanted to be a lot of things back then as well! I even wanted to be a DJ. lol . Yeah, I dream of not working for someone else as well. Its really much better if we can control our own time and work.

When I was still little kid I always wanted to be my mother's assistance and would not leave her any moment. As time passed by and I entered my high school the world unfolded like an umbrella and questions of selecting or setting goal fr life arrived. I had a sort of fascination for teaching and thus decided that I would be a teacher - either a college teacher or a university teacher.

And fortunately (for me) today I am what I wanted to be.


myLot reputation of 87/100. donsky14 (2557)   ranked 639 out of 35,125 in people  10 months ago

Wow...that's great krajibg! I guess that's what you really want. And its great that you got what you wanted. thumbup

I absolutely adore animals and wanted to be a Vet. As I grew older I got to thinking about it and I decided I couldn't put an animal to sleep so I changed my major and now I have no idea what i want to do. I'm going through college aimlessly and I will see what is available when I graduate next year. I wish I had stuck with my dream because I now realize that putting animals to sleep isn't an every day thing and most of them are in pain anyway.


myLot reputation of 87/100. donsky14 (2557)   ranked 639 out of 35,125 in people  10 months ago

I also wanted to be a vet! But then, I can't really stand seeing animals in pain...so I just forgot about that.

I remember answering that question when I started to watch TV. There was a local channel before in the 80s where every saturdays, a show about japanese stuff like how to make a robot or a levitating train. Followed by another show that featured animals (maybe a younger version of national geographic channel). Anyway, I knew that I wanted to become a scientist. You know to invent, study animals, create my own robots and stuff.
I think I fulfilled part of that dream. Took up BS Biology in college so I became a scientist. Also studied animals. LOL. But I deviated a bit, instead of knowing how to build robots, I learned how the human body works. I became a doctor and I am doing that now.
of course, there are other stuff i want to do...
Cheers!!!

When I was a kid, I really like to be a teacher...I don't even know why. I just want to feel how to be a teacher, its like I'm enjoying it when I was KID. I even have my class record putting random names, have my chalk & colored chalk, I used our backdoor as blackboard LOL...

As time goes by, I realized I don't want to be a teacher. All I want now is to be a professional web and graphic designer, which is I am right now. I'm not saying I'm professional already, but I do have experiences with those fields.


myLot reputation of 87/100. donsky14 (2557)   ranked 639 out of 35,125 in people  10 months ago

Its great that you already have an experience with web and graphic designing pinkista...at least when you really do it professionally then you would already have an idea of what to do and stuff happy

I always wanted to be a teacher and even though I didn't pick that as my career choice, I am doing it. I home school my children and so I teach everyday. Plus,as a mother,I find that I am always teaching the children something even though we aren't always doing school. I am glad that I didn't make it my career though as public schools are so out of control.

Well at least your doing what you love carolcash, and thats whats important. happy
