What did you dream of becoming when you were a kid? Did it follow through?

When I was a kid I really, really wanted to be a paleontologist. Unfortunately, when I studied college abroad they didn't offer a course in paleontology so I was really disheartened. I just picked another course where in I know at least there's income there. I chose I.T. In the end, yes the job pays well but I never had my career. Maybe when I'm in my 30's I'll try to work in a museum.

When I was a child, I wanted to become a doctor because I wanted to become rich. But while I'm growing up, I realized that being a doctor is not for me because I don't enjoy things that are related to medicine. So I became a systems developer, I could say that I have no regrets that I didn't pursue my dream.
