Since i was a child,I have wanted to be a doctor.I find saving people one of the most rewarding concepts of humanity.I don't think I can acknowledge at its fullest how it is when you think "Man..yesterday I saved some lives.Made a mom cry in joy".Of course,bad things can happen..
What about you,my friends,what would you like to be? Or what professions do you have?

I know, I also wanted to be a doctor because of that reason you have provided in the discussion, but I could become one as I could not bare the sight of blood as I grew up. I then switched to engineering. But it is not bad either. thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Thankfully you switched to engineering. I can't imagine my doctor to be afraid of blood. Haha. Good day!

When i was a child,once i've wanted to be many professions. Doctor is cool and i can heal many patients and thus feel happy about my career. But i've always wanted to learn those languages which makes me feel joyful. Just stick to what you really love and i believe you can do it.

Being a doctor was my childhood dream. Too bad I wasn't able to pursue that dream coz I was discouraged by mom. She told me that I might just end up being a teacher after taking the pre-medical course and would not be able to go on with Med school.
I grew up surrounded by 2 uncles who are both surgeons and my mom was a nurse.
In College, I took Dentistry just so to be close to the one Course I love.
When I got married, my brother in law, who was then taking up Medicine put up a pharmacy. I managed it for almost 10 years. I really loved working there. During working hours, i would spend reading Medical journals and Medical books.
Until now, I am still interested in reading anything about Medicine.

When I was a child, I wanted to be a student, a teacher, a driver...... It is interesting to think back. And now I am a teacher.

Well,you achieved something that you wanted.
There was a time in which I wanted to be a taxi driver.I thought it's relaxing,but now,as I come to terms with this job,I don't see the comfort anymore.They all look stressed,they need to respond to requests,rush,hurry etc.Don't like it anymore.

I am too an admirer of Newton and Einstein!
Physics must be understood thoroughly before application.What I see is that in school,physics is taught at an absolute level(perfect pulley,no friction,no distortion),not applicable at that stage in reality.It's better if somewhere,you get margins of error,etc.
Man,luck can be found by everyone.You just have to wait.Be hapy with what you're doing and hope to the best.

I'd love to work in the background in a theatre. I would do marketing or I would plan arrangements for the leading staff or I would organise their events.
Now I'm a student worker. I am a media observer. Well, I like some aspects of the job, but no way I wanna do thus for my entire life. All things are so hectic there.

when i was a child, i've always wanted to design houses. i've wanted to an architect. but as i grew older, i realized that being an architect is not easy. i was also influenced by people around me what to take up in college.
i graduated information technology because of the influences. it didn't even occur to me that i liked computers. i only enrolled because my parents wanted me to.

As a kid I was fascinated about cars, I still am. When I was a child, I thought if I had a car, I'll sleep, eat, drink and move around in it. How needs a house? Haha. Thus, my ambition was similar. I wanted to be a chauffeur and stay in a car the whole day. Now I'm grown up and understand better. Today I'm a finance student. Good day!
