I pictured myself as a vet who made Oscar-winning films in her spare time.

I would love to be a pilot,either commercial or military.

Since that doesent look like it is going to happen a solider.

If that doesent happen,I would like to sit in town all day with a bottle of devils bit and pretend I am flying choppers!:pac:

I wanted to be a ballerina until I was about eight. Then I realised that would never happen. Still danced for 15 years though, only gave up in January. After that a teacher. Now I'm at college studying management in the arts!

I always wanted to manage the county hurling team!:cool:
Then I changed my mind and wanted to become a vet!

In real life, it turns out that I end up being merchandiser for a sports brand!:(

Me too, unless someone decides they need banking facilities in space I doubt I'll get the call.

Wanted to be Batman till I was 5 and when I realised that was'nt possible I decided that I wanted to make Batman so since then I've wanted to be a film maker. Am currently on the way to accomplishing that dream.

I wanted to drive around in a kick ass van with three close friends, on the run from the law. Of course we'd be broke, so we'd have to make money by helping ordinary citizens out with their problems against stereotypical bad guys who wanted their property and other valuables.

That... or Hulk Hogan.

... I'm unemployed.

I wanted to be a civil servant. When I was a lad and all my friends wanted to be firemen and superheros when they grew up, I had my eyes on a nice secure public sector deskjob. Now I f*ckin' hates the bastards. Also, I was a very very odd child.

I don't know what I wanted to be, how sh*t is that?

When I was young I remember I wanted to be a Priest, that was at the age of around 6 -7, my grand-mother influenced that one.

Between the ages of 8 - 13 I wanted to be a Professional Football player, what lad that age did not?

When the school got inside my head and made me choose a profession, I decided on Computers and Business. Sucessfully completed college and now work in IT.

I still dream occasionally, nearly at the age of 30, of being a Pro Footballer.
