What did you want to be when you were a kid?

[Usige Beatha]

When I was young, I wanted to be like me ole' Pa and join the Royal Navy.

And now theres a strong chance I might end up in the US Army O.0 lol

 

[thebunnyofdeath]

I always wanted to be Xena. I still do actually.

 

[smallharmlesskitten]

I wanted to be a millionaire, I wanted super powers (most often, the ability to project lightning from my hands), and I wanted to rule over a secretive organization of Ninjas.

As fate would have it, I am not even a thousandaire most days, if I rub my feet on the carpet I can produce an immeasurably small spark, and while I can tie a TShirt around my head to look like a Ninja, I have no minions who follow me.

i will follow you to the end sensei

just remember the inverse ninja law

 

[Snake422]

When I was real little I told my mom I wanted to be a sock no joke.

 

[stompy]

I wanted to be a guy in a suit when I was younger... yeh, I still wanna be a guy in a suit today. What, suits are awesome!

 

[Girlysprite]

In order of age;

-Painter (7)
-Owner of a painting museum (8)
-Pet doctor (9-14)
-Forensic coroner (before series like CSI, mind you) (14)
-Game designer (16+)

I became level designer, I pretty much became what I wanted to be

 

[CasualZombie]

I may have read what little story there was of "Sonic the hedgehog" wrong but I wanted to be a mad scientist (they seem much more successful than the ordinery "sane" garden variety brand)like Dr Robotnik! He seem to be able to just put together what ever he wants so easily or something that can put him at least on the path to his dream!

Instead I'm just a henchman temp constantly trying to pretend I'm not smarter than my bosses... but as soon as I make my first doom ray....

 

[shatnershaman]

Closing pitcher (6)Saw first Blue Jay game and saw Billy Koch win it for us.

[The Sorrow]

Weapons Designer/Engineer. Actually, I just wanted to build a Battlebot (still do).
Because robots kicking the crap out of other robots is awesome.

 

[whistleduck]

i wanted to be a forensics scientist. seriously. i watched alot of csi, and didnt get out alot

i'm actually currently in the middle of my forensics degree and no, i don't get out a lot. actually that's a lie, i'm a student, i get out loads! wahey!

i wanted to be a dinosaur, then a world class bassist, a psychiatrist, han solo (bit tricky due to lady parts) & finally decided on forensics as i'm good at chemistry & it had a direct correlation between most interesting thing to do in chemistry & least amount of effort.

not everyone can say they get to smash blood with a mallet & blow stuff up

 

[Zoroastres]

Fighter Pilot, then an Astronaut. In that order, of course.

The first dream evaporated when I realized I had grown too TALL to fly, and the second when, you know, the space program fell to pieces.

My new (idle) dream is to somehow (magic) obtain a ludicrous amount of money--bazillions and infintillions of dollars--and use it to jumpstart a massive space-exploration and colonization movement. I'm talking mass drivers, orbital elevators, O'Neil cylinders, Lunar colonies, Mars domes, the whole shibang.

 

[ForestFox]

[Knight Templar]

I wanted to be an NBA player, but oh well. Now I get to hang out with you guys!

[SilentHunter7]

I wanted to be a Fighter Pilot. I actually kinda gave up on that dream 4 or 5 years ago when I realized there was no way I was getting into the Academy (less than perfect grades), and I started pursuing video game programming. But a couple of recruiters talked to me one day, and I found out about the Air Force's ROTC program. Now I'm a computer science major in ROTC at Penn State. A pilot slot is my main goal, with a Bachelor's in CompSci, and a programming career as a fallback if that doesn't work out.

 

[Jumplion]

I wanted to be an archaeologist at one point ._.; *younger me*WOOO!! Diggin' up rocks FTW!*

Then i wanted to be a writer

Then i wanted to be a musician/singer

Then i wanted to be a video game designer.

Most likely my life will lead me to the music career.
