When you were a kid, what did you want to be? What are you now?

As a kid i wanted to be an artist,pilot and veterinarian.

i have become an artist, but only as a hobby.
 
When I was 3 all the way to age 18 i wanted to be a vet, but once I found out how much schooling I'd have to go through I decided not be study. Now I major in Plant biology which i wanted to do to help out the environment. Starting in the fall i'll be working with my teacher as a Lab assistant! Since i go to a research school i'll get paid to do it!!
 
I wanted to be an artist. I never got really great at art (I drew my avatar, for example ._.), and I've been staying at home after high school. I didn't take college or get a job.

For a while I wanted to be an author, but I've kind of given on up on 'cause it'd be a lot of work and just plain luck to make an actual living as an author.

The only other things I really wanted to be were a psychiatric nurse or something to do with video games, but since I'm horrible with math and a lot of things regarding video game programming and stuff need math I've decided to just go to school to be a psychiatric nurse
 
When I was a little kid- I always wanted to be a professional wrestler- because I grew up watching professional wrestling almost every single day- and now, I want to be a plethora of things... I want to be a vet (I just got accepted into an animal science and health class for a career school, but I didn't take the offer- I'd feel so weird being put in a different school- but I still really want to do it...), I want to be a lawyer, I want to be an author, a pastry chef, and a professional wrestler... (still) LOL
 
I wanted to be a film director, then an animator, then a veterinarian, then finally a writer. Now I'm a self loathing hobby artist who can't work because I'm disabled. Winning! :D

Hey! I'm not the only one who wanted to be a Pro Wrestler, ahhh all those Monday/Thursday/Friday nights spent watching WWF/WWE! What a childhood~ I also wanted to be a vet or a cop and now I'm just kinda drifting figuring my life out. So we'll see where I go next.
 
I wanted to be a marine biologist or a zoo keeper. Something to do with animals.
 
When I was younger I was one of those kids that were like, "I wanna be a vet because I love animals". Then I figured out that I don't want to do anything medical. I'm too squeamish.

I learned about the wonders of technology and so now I want to be a product photographer.
 
Growing up, I wanted to be a scientist, marine biologist, and even a chef. Now i'm going to school to become a Mortician or Funeral Director. However, I currently feel like a failure. :)
 
when i was a kid i wanted to be a fashion designer, a doctor and an astronaut. i went on to do media in college, to help with becoming a fashion photographer but i'm switching to fashion come this september. so in short, i want to be a fashion photographer.
 
I wanted to be a Vet since I was really young (around 4), which changed to a Zoologist when I was a little older.
I'm currently in my second year of university studying Natural Sciences.
