When you were a kid, and you wanted to be a doctor or a fireman when you grew up? Has anyone here actually done what they said they wanted to do? Not me. I never thought I would end up in the military.

I always wanted to be an astronaut. My family wanted me to go into the military. I ended up not doing either of those things. Right now I am 29 and still don't know what I am going to be when I grow up! Maybe one day things will all come together! Seriously though I am very happy with wher eI am in life right now and I wouldn't trade it, even to be an astronaut!

When i was a kid my ambition is to become a stewardess, but really i think i dont fit to this job cos i really dont like the feeling when the plane is about to take off, its really ironic that. Then later on i wanted to become a dentist, but i really dont like going to the dentist as well.Eventually i graduated and got my degree as bachelor of science in management where i end up working in the office as administrative staff.

baby cake - two-tier cake for baby shower with fondant babies
I wanted to make my living singing...not sure how exactly, but just wanted to sing. I did manage to get a degree in music, but had already taken a job in cake decorating and that ended up becoming a career since I've been doing it since 1980!

Wow! That's an interesting job. It's funny how a lot of people that get a degree end up not even doing anything close to what they went to school for.

Honestly, I wanted to be a pop star, LOL I laugh about it now but I wrote songs when I was 13 and everything. I still have the songs and have a laugh over them every years or so when I drag them out of storage :-)

I wanted to be a Veternarian but never even got close and I wanted to also be a writer and am one, the other thing I wanted to be was to be a wife and mom and achieved that goal too.

I always wanted to be a veterinarian. I got accepted to 2 schools...1 for animal science, the other for veterinary technician, but it cost way to much money at the time.
