What is your first childhood dream?

I know there are some existing posts on childhood dreams but this is more about being honest with each other and tell everyone what's your FIRST childhood dream. Believe it or not, most boys wanted to become a policeman or fireman. I wanted to become a policeman, for reasons I no longer understand now. Maybe they look cool? And for girls, it will always be teacher or chef. However, there is this small boy who I've met few months ago, he told me (he was 3 years old) that his dream is to become a "boss". =_= So what is your first childhood dream? Come on, don't be shy. :D p/s..... for sure you won't think of lawyer or doctor as your first childhood dream, since you most probably don't even know what are those occupation yet.

when I was just a young kid I dreamed about becoming a mechanic. I used to idolize my cousin who works for a local garage. Things really don't go as you planned when you were a child. I ended up being a doctor.

That's a very big jump !! Maybe it's better to be a doctor. You can save lives. :)

Yeah being a doctor saves lives but I am still pursuing my childhood dream. I'm making my studies again just for fun.

That's a very good thing to do, to be honest. :) Most people give up on their childhood dreams due to other factors - money, family pressure, etc.

Learning martial art is not that hard. But being a pro is difficult. That's why I opted for policeman and superhero :D

when i was a kid i only had a very simple dream, to have a nintendo. we are les fortunate before and can't able to buy anything we want. what my parents can provide us were only the basic needs that wee need like food, clothes that we wear everyday, send us to public schools. They can't provide us food that we want like cakes, chocolates and etc. When i was a kid i wanted to have a nintendo like what my cousins have. But now everything changes. Things were reverse now. in God's grace i have now what i want although not all but i can have now the things that i wanted before and working for some other things to have

I'm very fortunate, to be honest. I get most of the toys which I wanted. You can call me a spoilt brat. But I've changed my lifestyle since. And I'm sure you will really appreciate the things that you get after putting in so much effort. Those things that come easily, will not be as important as those which don't.

BELIEVE OR NOT... I would love to become a SCIENTIST and invent something that will give me some powers that will eventually make me a SUPERHERO! There you go... funny but true... that was my dream when I was a child with no sense of idea about professions or real jobs!

Gosh, you have the same ambition with me. When I realized policeman is a boring job, I actually thought of becoming a scientist - not to invent stuff but to be a superhero. =_=
