I've noted often, when talking to various people, an often hilarious or ironic profession someone has entered into, in relation with what they wanted to be as a child. e.g.:

What You Wanted to be: an Astronaut
What You Are: I work at a bar called Space.
(thats not me, thats a friend)

so let me know!

I've been told that when I was very young, I wanted to be a suitcase.
Obviously I'm not, that would just be weird.

Flyn from Tron.. I wanted to own an arcade and live on the second floor.

Currently I own a business and live in the loft on the second floor. I used to work in the game industry and I also used to direct music videos.

So I haven't totally been way off.

A writer or in the Royal Air Force, maybe both. I'd write poetry in dogfights. Now I just kinda want to get through without drawing jealousy for being such a charismatic stallion.

Seriously, though, I need a job. I have about as much direction as Jack Black on amphetamines.

I wanted to be an artist, but I don't like drawing enough to make a career of it. Now I want to be a writer.

I'm a student, English major, so I'm on my way. We'll see how it goes.

I wanted to be a director when I grew up. Still haven't grown up but I'm in film college so that says something.

I wanted to be a singer, but I lost my voice. >:eek:
Now I want to be either a writer or actress, I'm taking the courses I will probably need, and will most likely go to Uni if I can afford it.
But for now, I'm just a lame student. :)
