I wanted to be a teacher. In seventh grade my asshole father told me I was never going to college because we couldn't afford it. I was a naive 12 year old and didn't know about loans and scholarships. I quickly stopped trying in school because I figured there wasn't any point....how sad! My grades were so bad that I only got into a Community College and I left after one semester...I chose to work full time instead...again, how sad! I currently substitute as a Special Education Instructional Assistant for our school district and I love it....I'm hoping a permanent position will open up in the fall. Oh and I wanted to be a Mom....I have 3 great kids...who WILL be going to college because they get good grades!

When I was a small child, I wanted to be a jockey, but I got too tall. As a teenager, I wanted to act, which I did for awhile, until I got married. Now I'm a mom, wife and aspiring novelist. Not what I dreamed of, but I'm happy.

I always wanted to be a cop when I was little. Then I grew up and realized what little money they make. So now I'm in Real Estate.

When I was little I wanted to be a lawyer. Mostly for the money. Now that I am all grown up (31) I am a Marketing Coordinator for a restaurant chain. I realized that I hate school and that lawyers are in school forever. I decided against it.

I wanted ot be a policewoman. I found out how many of them were killed daily in South Africa, where I grew up, took an asprin and changed my mind. I still want to do it but not as much. I am now in advertising.

I never quite "grew up", and these days I work for a very large travel organization. My job is to travel the world and look for (and test out) tours and activities that we can recommend and sell to our customers.
