...what did you want to be after you graduated from high school?

Are you in that career now, and did you have any idea that you would be doing this type of job back then?

I never graduated or any school certificate upon leaving seeing i had Leukaemia and was receiving treatment. I ended up being home schooled for a couple of years but still never finished.

I am now in remission but all the career plans i had at the time (in 94) went down the trashcan. I now attend a local college doing parttime education and work as a bartender. Its aight, i still love my life and have no regrets.

After graduation I went to Sacramento State University and planned on becoming a teacher. Unfortunately, I never completed college because I made the foolish decision to work full time at a job that at the time was allowing me to make a great income and pay for my own apartment and drive a new car. I thought I had it made. If I only would stayed a starving student and obtained my degree I would now have a career that could really help support my family. That great job that I left college for, didn't last long, because I gave it up to get married and start a family. Now I have no career to fall back on. My friends that stayed in college are doing well, while I am a homemaker that takes care of my children while my husband goes to his career job as a firefighter and supports our family. The lesson here is ....stay in college!

I wanted to be a Powerful Business Executive.... and no, I had no idea I would be a minister... in fact.. when I first got my call to the ministry... I tried to run from it...

Of course... I'm about 75 lbs heavier now than I was in high school... so I can't run as far or as fast... LOL

Sort of.

I was going to follow my father and going into the heating/air conditioning (HVAC) business...start my own HVAC business.

I did start my own business....but something else entirely.

Always knew I was going to go into the Marines...did that though.
