    If they litter in your library you could throw the book at them.

    When i was younger i always wanted to do anything to do with animals. I still do. Hoping to go back to college next year to do veterinary nursing.

    I currently work with b!tches but they're the two legged ones. Its not the same. New's years resolution is to get the fck out of there. No reason why i can't, i achieved last years resolution (pay off debts and start saving for college).

    I was conditioned to believe I wanted to be a teacher/shop assistant/nurse as that's what girls did (and my mother was a nurse so obviously I'd become one).

    When I was a weee nipper I wanted to be an engineeeeeeer. Then I wanted to be a photographer, but my parent bought me a shoyte camera so I ditched that. Then it was an accountant, thank fúck that didn't work out. Then a computer programmer. Unfortunately that did work out. My ambition now is to be a professional bra. I seem to be constantly supporting tits at work so I reckon I'll be good at it.

    Failing that, I'm back into the photographry again though so here's hopin.

    I didnt want to be anything when I grew up. Cos even as a kid I knew when it came to the time that id have to work for a living, it would be uniformly shít. I was right.

    Curious, what are you now?:)

    I wanted to be an engineer or a doctor.

    It went from a dentist, to a hairdresser to a nurse, then to a saint (but my sister ruined that one, she told me you had to be dead to be declared a saint, which is true in fairness)
    Then I wanted to be a famous actress on broadway (does anyone remember that programme on tv, the john player tops!?!?) Found out I couldnt sing, but then found out I was good at drawing so wanted to be an artist.
    I work as a designer now, not at all as cool as I had imagined but thats life I guess! :)

    Book critic.

    Will never happen if things like Twilight keep appealing to the masses.

    If I could be anything, the other two options would be A) Palaeontologist, or B) Curator at the Natural History Museum in NY, looking after the dinorawrs.
