What did you want to be growing up?

I always wanted to be a marine biologist...

currently, i am a biologist that works with a marine type of organism (though my focus is more on development and evolution)

so, guess that counts!

James Bond with his fancy tools.

Archaeologist... hehehe.

I was so into dinosaurs as a kid that I made, from scratch, a triceratops costume for myself out of forest-green Bristol board...

Edit: Sadly enough, this was in grade 5, when most girls were into New Kids on the Block and dirty Dancing and sleepovers.

Needless to say, I went out T-or-T'ing with my mom that year.

Wait a sec... I ALWAYS went out T-or-T'ing with my mom... all my classmates were too embarassed to be seen with me.

Well, technically I am still growing up, but when I was younger I really wanted to be in robotics. Then I realised that kind of career required great skill in math while 2+2 seemed like an extremely complex equation to me.

I always wanted to be a physicist.

While initially I wanted (this was in teenage years) to be an astrophysicist, events at University scuppered that, and I have decided to go into forensics....

Which I have had as an interest at least two years before CSI...

As a child, I really wanted to be a cartoonist. But now as a seventeen-year-old, I want to be either a marketing executive, a real estate broker, or a lawyer.

A lot of people tell me I should be a lawyer.

I've wanted to get into politics. Now I'm glad that I didn't get into politics.

Never had a clue. I only figured out a few years ago that I like working in libraries. Not sure I want to be a librarian though.

First I wanted to be a gigolo, then a cow inseminator. I finally settled on being a member of Michael Jackson's entourage.

You already told us you were a child molestor, but a member of Michael Jackson's entourage? You need help!
I keep having nightmares about him. Are you the one making me dream about him?

*Nods head* No.

*Writes out "I did it. I planted dreams about Michael Jackson into One-Winged Angel's head."* I would never do such a thing.

You did it because you thought it would weaken Garlic if I turned into a child molestor. But it didn't work. It made me create a werbert molester. Viagra WEAPON, you know what to do.

Won't that be an interesting news story.

"Our top story tonight, a 13-year-old serial rapist from Oklahoma was arrested for trading obscene e-mails with a victim whose name was withheld because he is an adult. Police say the rapist intended to drug his victim with garlic and take advantage of him."

I don't know yet.But something that has great pay but me not having to go to college.
