In kindergaten they asked what we wanted to be when we grew up,what was your answer? If you were asked today would your answer be the same? I went from wanting to be a teacher at age five, to a cashier at eight, to an artist at age thirteen, to now I want to design video games.

At kindergarten, I wanted to be a nurse. That did not change til 5th grade. When I graduated from elementary, it went astray a bit. I went from being a nurse to certified public accountant. But it didn't last long. It's just that my Mom kept on pushing me to it. At the age of 15, I either want to be a Multimedia artist or a Medical doctor. It all changed when I stepped to College, my mind's fixed that I'd take a paramedical course. I ended up taking Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Therapy. No regrets.

I can't remember what my answer was in kindergarten specifically. however, I pretty much always wanted to be a teacher. i am still a teacher of sorts and hope to continue in my present field. however, I have broadened my horizons some what and would like to be a nutritionist and a personal trainer. But in a round about way those are both teaching as well!

I guess at first since I saw my mom just stayed at home I just wanted to be a good mom and wife. Although now I have gone on to want to be an amazing transcriptionist and I am quickly on my way to doing that. I also always dreamed that I would have a gorgeous two story house with dogs and kids but that is only half complete. I have the dogs and a nice house but no kids yet, hopefully that will be the next dream that comes true for me.

... oh my gosh, what HAVEN'T I wanted to be? Haha! When I was in kindergarden, I wanted to be a veterinarian. I have wanted to be an artist, a journalist, a lawyer, a teacher, a freelance travel writer, an anthropologist, an archaeologist, a poet, a pastor, a missionary, a doctor (cardiologist), and so many more. I am finally just sticking with teaching and maybe doing some missionary work with my teaching. It's really insane how many options we are given. We are quite blessed.

I always dreamed of becoming an author up till the age of 12 because I loved reading and I seemed to have quite a bit of creativity because of this. I was a bit of a dreamer and I used to fantasise and imagine loads of different scenerios so I guess that sparked me wanting to create my own stories. However, by the time I was 12, I matured and I knew I didn't have enough talent to become an author so I changed my dream to becoming an accountant. I had always loved money and used to be very cautious with it and coming from a fairly poor family, I wanted to make sure I would have a reasonable income and if you work with money, you will definately make money! But just recently, I realised accounting wasn't nearly as much fun unless it was your own money you were controlling so now I've decided I want to become a pychologist. I've come to a decision that I want to make a difference to people's lives and I have always thought it fascinating, the whole concept of psychology and analysing what people are thinking.
