What did you wanna be when you grew up?
« on: December 10, 2012, 12:43:01 PM »
I am curious, what you guys wanted to be when you grew up, back in 1st school. And no cheating by just making cool stuffs up! Or smart "I wanted to be rich" remarks, mmkay?


So to start off, for me, aside from wanting to be a jet ski for a little while, I wanted to be a garbage truck man. Weird huh?

Thats not weird at all ^_^


Me, I went through several stages of other things I wanted to be xD
But for the longest time, I wanted to be a SWAT team member. From the time I was 7 to 13 I was always running around with a fake badge, a toy radio and a toy PP90 sub Machine Gun. When ever I got home from other places I would always run to my room and put on my uniform(Little dollar store SWAT team outfit) then run around the rest of the day like that xD

Our mere existence is enough reason to carry on. Never let others steal your lust for life. Life is all you have and it is all you will get. Cling to it until the universe says it's time to let go. Then rest, only then have you earned it.

I wanted to be a truck driver but that's not going to happen because I won't pass the medical.

I wanted to be a construction worker because they got to drive around all those cool machines.  :P

That's my aim, to get my 360° excavator license. I already have my Construction Skills Certification Scheme card (health and safety stuff).

When I was younger, I wanted to be older, now I am, I want to be younger. Go figure.
 
But really, I wanted to be a train driver but now I want to be  a Robotisist or Robophsycologist.

When I was little, I was in love with the idea of being a marine biologist. I was always enthusiastic about biological sciences and working with animals in general. I'll have you know I was obsessed with Sharks and Dolphins as well as the deep ocean and the lurid and surreal life dwelling there. It was my dream to go down in a submersible, and I wanted to take diving lessons, but monetary constraints on my family denied that.

I wanted to be a race car driver. It started when I was around three years old, I still like the idea of it, it just doesn't seem like it's probable, cause I'm not exactly rich, but that's ok.

I wanted to be a vet.

Then when I was around 20 I got that chance, and realized that cutting things open wasn't really what I wanted to do.

Now I want to be a neuropsychologist. Also an artist.
