What do you want to be when you grow up?
What did you want to be when you were little? and What do you want to be right now? How did you change your mind about it? Discuss.
|
I don't have it planned out yet. However, I do want to be involved in science and/or medicine, so maybe a nurse doctor, despite the messy work.
|
I have no idea yet. I guess a possibility of being a rhythm guitarist for a metalcore band.
|
I thought I wanted to do something along the lines of graphic design or work for a magazine. But since then, I really don't know anymore. I've been having doubts and questioning what I was going to do with my life ever since I started really looking at the fact that this is my final year in high school.
|
Chef. Already in Culinary school so its not something I want its something I will achieve.
|
I want to be on the radio. ;'(
|
I remember wanting to be a hairdresser first, because my Dad's cousin was a hairdresser.
Then I wanted to work for the RSPCA, because I love animals, but quickly went off the idea when my Mum was all "I don't think you want to see injured animals." Then quite a few years later I started taking Cisco Network Academy after school when I was 16, I decided I wanted to be a computer technician, technical support and the like, particularly in networks and security. Two years later, I scored an apprenticeship with my local council, and I'm one year into it now. Winner. =D So yeah, I'm in the middle of getting what I wanted to do. |
I want to look into journalism. I was sure I wanted to teach but.... It wasn't really for me.
|
Game Designer.
I have so many ideas for everything. Why not put it into use on something I love? |
I'm working toward a computer science degree. I plan to go into IT.
When I was younger, I wanted to be a firefighter, then a politician, then a lawyer, then a doctor (in that order). I gave up on doctor around 16 when I realized it would take eight years out of my life just training for it. |
At different points in my life I have wanted to be a writer, an astronaut, a ghost, a whale and a giant marshmallow.
Right now I just want to be happy. |
I've wanted to be a paleontologist, marine biologist, professional musician, author, photographer, photojournalist, and now a journalist. In that order.
|
Me?
As far back as I could remember, the first "thing I wanted to be when I grew up" was a fireman, then a martial artist, then an astronaut, then a voice actor, then a cartoonist, then a graphic designer, then an architect, then (and currently) an engineer. My college classes are geared towards civil and mechanical engineering, so for the sake of not wasting college money, I hope I don't change my mind again. XD |
I want to be either a singer, author or architect. I also agree with Scarf on the Giant Marshmellow (called Ethan).
|
I'm not sure yet. An pre-teen/adult author, singer for my band, gymnastics person.
IDK! |
Since I was a wee little lad, my dream was to be animator. But, I lack the talent for that and have moved on. While not my dream job, my current career path looks like it will be in the Information Technology field.

ive wanted to be a Broadway star, author, palientoligst, lawyer, and Spiderman.
Though, I really dont know what i want. Maybe i could be a star chef, and not know it. Maybe i should take what everybody keep ssaying and become a Broadway Star. Or should i follow my parents dreams for me coming a corporate lawyer. I dont know. I just know i want to have a happy, successful, and awesome life. I also want to be a father. <333 |

hah, and I see you paired with my Gaga Buddy. Nice ;D |
I wanted to be a teacher, but the college told me my health made that impossible.
I'm studying finance now, but I'd really like to be a trucker. Or stay in college my whole life. |

|
I'm still not 100% sure, but perhaps an author, or an English professor.
|
I want to be a detective's sidekick.
|
Don't know at the moment, might try being a lot of things :3.
|
Hm... I either want to be a History Teacher or a Forensic Scientist.
|
When I grow up, I wanna be DANGEROUS.
|

|
Corporate Lawyer. I'm pragmatic. :P
|
I'm already grown up!
Let's just say I wish I could be these things after I'm done studying... 1. Lawyer 2. Prime Minister of Malaysia 3. Robotics Enginner 4. Author 5. Newspaper Editior 6. Astronomer @No.2: No seriously I do... |
When I was younger, I wanted to an electronics technician (I think that's what it's called). It's the job that my dad does. When I visited his work, I was enthralled by all of the computers, half-disassembled computers, and just random computer components laying around. Looking back on it, I'm not even sure why I wanted this job.
However, I now want to be a pharmacist. I guess it's mainly because in the rare instances that I'm taking medication, I find it interesting to look up the said medication(s), see what they treat, and how they work. I have a strong interest in science (particularly chemistry), am decent in math, and can write and speak pretty well. So yeah, pharmacist it is. |
I'll list some of my previous ideas
-Astronaut -Artist -Astronaut -Game Designer -Graphic Designer -Game Designer I've decided I want to be a Graphic Designer now, but I still remember when I was little and wanted to be an Astronaut. |

Well, when I was a kid, I never looked forward into becoming anything. It wasn't until high school that I decided to work somewhere in the field of arts, like graphic designer, even a cartoonist. Some family issues made me change my mind so I wanted to work in law enforcement. I'm getting ready to work on an AA Degree in Criminal Justice and I just interviewed the chief of police at our local police department a few days ago. So far, I'm liking it this career. |
I'm not too sure really. Something to do with writing might be nice. Maybe a salesman of some kind?
|
I want to either be a pilot for the army, buy, renovate and sell houses for more or get into a earth-moving trade.
|
I want to be a pro basketball player.
|
When I was a kid I wanted to be a vet, voice actress, or forensic scientist. Now I want to be a journalist, though voice acting still seems fun.

I'm really interested in something related to music or the medical field.
|
I've always thought something involving computers, however atm I've found what I'd like to do; Computer Forensics (legal and professional hax0rz ftw). With a backup of Game Design if I don't like it/can't find a job in it. I know the subjects I need and the degrees I have to acquire at university. But there's still time to decide what I want to do. ^.^
Though I need to decide soon, however having a Bachelor in Computer Science sounds ftw imo. XD |
I am currently studying English Literature and Linguistics at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez Campus (Top public college in PR).
I plan no becoming a professor and then maybe later get into Law, probably Civil or Federal. So yeah, teaching or defending people, I AM grown up but in the process of becoming what I want to be. :) |
Right now my plans are to be a professional musician, however that doesn't usually fly to easily so my backup plan is to be a spoken interpreter for either business corporations in oversea trades OR the US Army. ^^"
|
Considering every week I change my mind about what I'm really ~passionate~ about, I really don't know where I'm headed. I see myself living in a Camry parked in someone's driveway seeking WiFi service, which doesn't sound horrible. I'm notorious for carelessly improvising my life. The only thing I don't want to be when I grow up (to think I actually use that phrase as if I ever will grow up) is lonely.

I wanna be an Astronomer. With a side course of Botany(I like plants you know).
|
I used to want to be a doctor but now i'm leaning more towards teaching, i also wanted to be a super hero when i grew up lol i also want to go into plants so botany ftw yay
|
I don't really know right now, college is so near to me I don't know what I'm going to take. But sometimes I want to be a lawyer or an engineer and something to do about arts and music.
|
I want to be either a Forensic Scientist or working in a tattoo parlor as a piercer, i don't know which one is better, they both sound great
:t354:TG |
I want to be the next Daniel Craig.

I want to be a Stylist/Fashion Designer;; =P, Or a lawyer, Who knows what will my future be.. =DD... THIS OR THAT!? XD;
|
I want to act in/make movies.
|
I want to study/teach the Arabic and Hebrew languages.
|
i wanted to be an actress when i was little [who didn't?], but now i want to be something along the lines of graphics designer.

When I was very young I wanted to be an astronaut O.O I have no idea why, considering that now I am afraid of even the very prospect of going into space. So that won't do it for me. I wanted to be an astronomer after that but when I found out how much went into it, I didn't want to anymore. I went through a couple of different job choices and now I've settled on either a magazine writer, an author, or a singer. My dream job is to be a singer because I love singing with all of my heart. It's just something I love to do, and to perform as well. I like making people happy with my music and just entertaining in general. I sing for my friends all the time and even today in school I took the microphone from my music teacher's room and used it and walked all around the room like it was a giant stage :pink_giggle: An author would be fun because I love to write. I'm always writing, so I think it will be the job that suits me best. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, but I'm good at it (possibly very good?) and it's the most promising career for me. I might start off as a magazine writer if I don't get to be a singer (even though I am planning on recording a demo CD recently). That way I can pay my bills whilst I write some kind of book or something. I've got my career pretty well planned out. |
I WANNA BE A SPACEMAN!!!
:DDDDD |
I want to be... White. Or a YouTube celebrity.
But honestly, I'd rather look into something in a computer-based field, maybe programming, R&D, or medical robotics. I'm gonna be in school for a while... |
I am already grown up (my growth plates have been gone for over two years).
When I was younger (age 3-6), I wanted to be a paleontologist. After that, I wanted to be a physicist. Then I studied astronomy and considered that as a possible field. At age 11, I wanted to be a chef. After a year, I settled on some sort of scientific research, either chemical, physical, or biological. The 6 years after that were devoted to deciding which of the three I would go with. I chose biology, but continued researching/studying other fields on the side. I'm pretty good at cooking today, though. |
When I was young, I wanted to be a fruit. Then a tree. Then a pizza. Then as I grew up, I wanted to be a Vet. Then I wanted to be a doctor and dedicate myself to helping other people after the death of my friend, but I wasn't smart enough so I decided on the three things I posted earlier.
|
I would like to be a Vet or Veteran Nurse Or an author, but If I had a choice, I'd be a singer.....<3

You could always be an ectoplasmic marshmallow whale. |
For a while, I wanted to get into a technical school to become a mortician...
But I'm kind of re-thinking it, because I don't know much about the field and how to become one in my home state. |
When I grow up
I wanna be famous I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies When I grow up I wanna see the world Drive nice cars I wanna have groupies When I grow up Be on TV People know me Be on magazines When I grow up Fresh and clean Number one chick When I step out on the scene o.o;; But seriously I wouldn't mind graphic design, but I'm incredibly lazy and haven't got much better since a while [goodz grammerz?]. Anyways, that's the plan atm XD |
A bum, living in my parents house, unable to find work.
|
Its kind of stereotypical, but I have always wanted to represent my country at a sport, but I am pretty good at so many i haven't chosen a path quite yet (I am 14, still have a lot to think about).
|
I'm not pretty sure with this because my mind always change. :((
At the moment. My dream is to become a Chef or a Fashion Designer. ^.^ I'm really good at cooking and I'll always treasure that talent! :DD Being a Fashion Designer is pretty easy to me. ;3 I know how to mix, blend colors and style properly. :P |
I wanted to be Spider-Man when I was very little,but I decided that I wasn't Peter Parker.Now I wanna be a Pokemon trainer,a cat,a whale(considering my size),and a Pokemon.
|
I'm hoping to be a web designer when I grow up,I've been learning CSS & HTML lately for some webpages and getting the hang of it.
|
I would like to do anything with animals I just love animals so much always have since I was a kid but if I couldn't become something to do with animals I would probably be a photographer.
|
I've always love to fight ever since. So I decided as a "offical" dream. I really want to become a shinobi. (ninja). yes, it may be weird but, I'm doing something optimistic and supporting as well. a perfect blend.
|
I'm not really sure lol. I'm majoring in biology next year when I start college, but I don't have a specific career in mind. I don't want to be anything in the medical field, though, that doesn't interest me in the slightest and it annoys me that everyone keeps suggesting it.
|
when i was really little i wanted to be a vet, then a trucker, then a Trauma Surgeon in a hospital, then Graphic designer, Then a Forensic ME, and now a Forensic Entomologist!
|
Baaaah, I'm in university right now doing my BA in Literature and I have no idea what I want to be when I leave. More so since the economy all went to pot and shrunk the job market in the lit field even more ;.; But hopefully I'll get some ideas in October - I'm volunteering at the Literature Festival in Cheltenham (my uni town \o/) and I hope to get to talk to some people about where to go in the literary world.
Journalism is one option I won't ever consider, though. Unless it's to be a research-assistant or something. |
To be an Assistant Admin on PC!
I dont know yet, Im thinking about it, though! |
As of this current moment, I'm studying to get a BA in both Japanese and Asian Studies. I had originally planned to pursue a degree in Japanese Education so that I could one day become a Japanese teacher here in the United States, but that would involve transferring both my major and my school, and I'm not liking that option as of right now.
I'm not quite sure what kind of career a BA in Japanese is going to land me, but I figure it can't hurt to have one, and I'm not sure what else to do with my life right now. If nothing else, I could get into the JET program and teach English over in Japan, but I guess we'll see what happens when I get my degrees, eh? |
I wouldnt mind a suitable job at Nintendo, but that would take alot of work and Japanese language X_X
|
I really have no clue at all. I don't really care, as long as it pays. XD;
