What YOU are?? And What did you dream to be??

When I was a little girl I wanted to be an archaeologist. I would like to be a forensic anthropologist but I do not feel that I would be able to earn my PhD in anthropology and thusly I would only be able to teach anthropology in a university. I have already decided that I do not want to teach (after three years of university education). I am now thinking that I would like to open my own business. Perhaps a craft store or something along those lines.

The first thing I can remember wanting to be was a teacher. By the time I was in 5th grade, I started admiring emergency personnel so I wanted to be a doctor, nurse or paramedic. By the time I graduated high school, I had been accepted into the nursing program at Seattle University and thought I would have a career in a few years. Unfortunately, I did not do well in school so I dropped out. Now I am teaching English, but I have recently completed an HR degree and hope to find a job in human resources soon. I don't know if one is exclusive of the other,but if I could put the teaching and HR together that would be great!!!

Well, this has actually happened with me. From the beginning I have been facinated by computers like anything. In the mid of my primary schooling, I used to like to become an astronaut and wander in the sky...like something which I have always wanted to do. But very soon it drained off again and I am right now back to my wishes of becoming a computer engineer, and a software engineer in specific. I wanna master computers and tame them for my use. However, to be honest, I am still not so transfixed at this, since, I believe, computer has been tamed by so many people, and as I want to do something really unique, I guess, I am not still ready to accept this. It is however, my wish to do something which will really influence the world and my work. Right now, am fixed to Computers, but I can't guarantee this for future.

hello vipulchawla Since I was a child, I was always in awe of flight stewardess. And I promised myself that someday I'll be like them. But reality gave me a wake-up call. For one thing, I don't have the height needed. And second, I don't have a perfect vision. So, my next dream was to become a nurse. At that time, I was fond of watching shows with hospital settings. And I wanted to experience how it feels to work in a hospital and be faced with emergency situations. But here in my country, it's a little expensive to go through nursing school. Even if it was hard for me, I turned my back on that dream and pursued a less expensive course but will still give me the chance to work in a hospital. And I took up a course in Nutrition and Dietetics. I got to work in a hospital even for a short while but then I got married and had a child. And now, looking back on what I first wanted to be since I was a child, it's a lot different. For one, I'm not working. Because I've been a stay-at-home mom for almost 6 years now. Sometimes, I still miss going to work in a hospital but even if it's a lot of hard work doing what I do now, 24/7, I'm happy and content.

You know, i always find it funny when I am asked what I dreamed to be when I was a kid. They expect answers such as being a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer and all those stuff a kid could dreamed of. Oh well, I guess I am different, I wanted to be a Beauty Queen LOL. The beauty and brain thing. When I am about to enter college, I wanted to be in Communication- Broadcasting and so I follow what I desire. Now I am working, I can apply communication but I had the feeling that I am gearing towards management. Life, and its changes... =)

well i wanted to be a pilot but i guess i could not really handle the Physics and Chemistry of class 11th then naturally pilot was out for me..i shifted to Commerce and surprisingly i also enjoyed my subjects and did very well in my exams and finally became a CA...so finally i am happy with myself..have a nice day..

Actually as of now my profession is same as yours, a sw engineer. I wanted to be a scientist at childhood. but later i drifted from taht as it would have taken much time in career to settle down. I think I am at right field.

i am a stay at home mother of three and an army wife. my dream when i was younger was to continue in my modeling career and to become a famous singer. those dreams have passed now and i couldn't imagine it any other way now. i love being a mother that can stay home with her children and i love being a wife. things happen for a reason and i know now that i was born to be a mother and a wife. God bless

[b][/b]when i was the kid.i dont have any aim.when i saw the flites going in sky.then i thought i want to became a pilot.after iam elder i thought i want to became a doctor.now iam a too a engineer

well when i was younger i wanted to be a teacher

years ago, i've always seen myself that i would be sucessfull once i turned 25. but where i am now, god.. that's goona be a long way to go.

I remember when I was about 5 wanting to be and archeologist. I think partly because we saw some on holiday in Italy and it looked like they got to play in the sandpit all day! Starting secondry school I wanted to be a tv camera operator or work in television. I've now started my degree, which is in Drama and now hope to be a lighting technician for theatres or even live bands if the oppertnity arises. But I've got another 2 years of a degree to go so who knows whereI may end up! Looking at it so far I'm pretty far away from the days of an archeologist.

when i was 8 years old,i had the idea that to be a teacher,because a teacher i can make a positive impact in the lives of children,i think that my spritual and physical stamina would contribute to my success as a teacher.

No such goals, from my childhood i was taught to be a good human first and all the other things next and secondary in life, so i am just trying to be a good human, hope i am succeeding in it too and yes...i did want to become a business woman, which i hope to achieve sometime in future

Well honestly, I never knew what I wanted and I still don't and I am all grown up. Don't always act it, but thats another story all together lol.

i have always wanted to be a lawyer or a psychologist. i dont know but i have always thought that i'd make a good lawyer... I tried an exam in a school i always wanted to go to in college. i got declined for the course i intended to take and that kinda disappointed me. :( i went to another school, took up Management information system and there.. i was seeing a future of project developments. it was kinda nice to think of... dream of being in a team working on projects with laptops and all... when i graduated, i worked as a customer service rep... got promoted as reports analyst.. now im in workforce management and a supervisor. it was all better than i have started... mybeing supervisor is as close as i can get to project developments.. my company gave me about 17 people to manage in the past, now they have re organized.. im down to 10 people :( i was really sad to let them go but i guess its just how things are. we do not always get what we want or dream about.

I think the change is very nomorl.I haven't gruated now,and I dream to be a scientist,I hope I will not change my mind in the future.

as for me, i wanted to be an architect since i saw my dad's sketches. He used to design our house or studio but he had no drawing background (he only graduated high school). and as time goes by i decided to be an english teacher since i love english very much. so here i am, bachelor of english education. after working here and there, i began to realize that the most important to me is not chasing career, but to have a happy family and be a good wife and mother. i let go of my jobs and here i am, happy to be a wife and hopefully soon i'll be a good mother. I think that no matter what we are now, it is meant to be that way. And that's the best of what we should have in this life. I never regret it though :)
