I wanted to be a nurse to help people and a mommy. In Highschool I wanted to be a speak Therapist who specializes with the deaf and/or a sign language interpreter. Now I am just a mommy who enjoys photography, writing and sign language. I hope to go back to school some day to be an interpreter. What about you?

Before, I wanted to be a fireman but, with how firemen handle everyday issues in their stations alone, I shifted interest and began to think on sports and thought about being a basket ball player, they said that my height was an advantage but, I really didn't find the sport as a career so I ventured elsewhere. I began to like to draw and was drawing since I could remember anyway. However, I wanted to make comics with interesting stories which influenced my decision to take up literature in college.
Now that I'm soon to claim my degree, I realized that I had to go back with drawing since it has been a long time since I drew with focus. Unfortunately, it won't be easy anymore since I really have to earn my way to it. I could not take another degree in arts since I have to get a job first. ^_^;
I really wanted to be a comic illustrator of some sort..

When I was little I wanted to be a teacher. It always sounded like such great fun to me. Around 5th grade I decided I wanted to be a news anchor. I wasn't thinking Connie Chung, lol, just a local news anchor. But gradually that dream faded and I really just wanted to find something that could help me achieve happiness.
