I wanted to be a writer and that's all I ever wanted. And seeing as how I am, I guess... job well done?

I wanted to be the very best, like no one ever was I don't know, I think I wanted to be an accountant or something because I was good at maths and wanted a 'realistic' job due to my childish nature of wanting to appear adult.

I wanted to be two things as a kid. First thing: a vet. I went off that goal for two reasons: 1) I'm too soft to see animals injured and 2) when I did work experience at a dog kennel one of them decided to pee on my leg (ew). The other thing was being an author which is thankfully starting to become reality.

An astronaut, a scientist (as in the kind who always wears a white lab coat and pours bubbling multicolored liquids from one test tube into another)...and a construction worker. Simultaneously. Clearly I should have grown up to start a program for the construction of a near-earth-orbit chemistry lab.

Later I wanted to be a National Geographic photographer, and still kind of like the idea, because it sounds like one of the most interesting jobs in the world. Of course it's also one of the most difficult to get into.

HIGH FIVE.
This is me as a child.
And as a teenager.
...MAYBE SCIENCE WILL CATCH UP SOMEHOW. OR SOMETHING.

/thread.

Or, if that's not available, a rocketship.
What about a rocket ship that turns into a dinosaur? Now that would be awesome.
TRANSFORMERS. MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE.

Yeah, that doesn't really make sense, but it's the first thing I thought of when I saw your post. :p
