when I was in Grade school...

Dreams were bigger and grander when i was in grade school. the world seemed so much bigger and so were my dreams. The future was brighter and innocence was still something to hold on to. Dreams of being a nurse or a teacher or even a singer were still dreams that i wanted to dream of becoming.

I still have dreams... no reason to stop because I'm old(er)! When I was very young, I wanted to be a policeman or a fireman (like most kids). Then it was a teacher. Then I discovered computers and wanted to be a guru - one of those people who knows loads about computers and operates on their own rules. This was the 80s, so the dream was to be the guy in jeans and a t-shirt (instead of a suit), with long hair, sitting in the corner and able to help everyone with their computer stuff or do amazing things no one else could. And you know what? I did it - I was the resident guru in the Paris office of the biggest networking company in the world. Jeans, long hair and all.

No matter what I did i knew i WANTED TO be in some part of the medical field. I started out when i was 15 and became a nurses aide under 11 nuns and Mother Superior. I learned so much peace and kindness and devotion to the patients. The day after i turned 18 i went in the Army to become a 91B20 Medical Specialiste. After that I went back to nursing in civilian life again, went back in the Army durning Desert Storm so I really did land some good medical jobs. When that was finished and Bill clinton was runningfor President that is when HIV/AIDS came into play. I became tghe first HIV/AIDS counselor for the state of Missouri. I think my medical dream come true to help and assiste people from all walks of life. I also became an EMT for the state of Missouri so my active lifestyle in the Medical field really did keep me busy and happy.

when i was a kid i always want to be one of the busiest person. i often see people doing this and that, going here and then running to find a taxi to go to another place. i dont know why, but i want to experience how it is to feel like "if only i can cut my body into 2" (most people here use that term, hehe).

I wanted to be a veterinarian, than a psychologist and finally I decided to go with the business. I never finished my studies. I still think this is my true passion. Any way, I have tried many jobs and neither of them have make me feel like I enjoy what I do. I know people that are living their dream jobs. Not my case. Sometimes I feel incomplete because I am 30 years old now and I still don't find my passion, you know. Who knows? Maybe someday I will find it.

I thought I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was 9, but then I realized I like playing with pets more than I would like operating on them. Besides that I never really knew what I wanted to be.
