I had a lot of childhood dreams. They changed more often than I changed my clothes, I think. xD I don't remember all of them, but the more memorable ones included becoming a nurse, a dictator, a leek (I kid you not. o_o), a truck driver, the person who pumps the gas at a full service gas station, and a waitress. But I've changed my mind now that I'm older and have more sense and know that I can't be a leek. xD Now I want to be a programmer. :D

Oddly enough, I have never wanted to be a princess, unlike most of the girls I know did.
if you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear

if you've something to hide, you shouldn't even be here

When I was in kindergarten, I wanted to be a nurse. Shortly after that, and for the longest time, I wanted to be a teacher. In hindsight, I have no idea why. o___o; I... don't think I'm responsible enough to be a teacher. So I've long since given up on it.

As a young child, I didn't aspire to become anything. I only looked forward to growing up, as any child would. I never really had any real dreams until I got old enough to realize I needed a goal to work at.

Only when I got older, is when I decided what I wanted to do. Honestly I'm STILL finding myself and who I want to be.

I wanted to be an author for as long as I can remember. Still do. Only difference is that now I understand how impossible a job prospect that is.
'It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments . . . nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.'

When I was a kid, I wanted to be an Indiana Jones-style adventurer-for-hire. The desire is still there I suppose, but it's more along the lines of Bear Grylls-style outdoor survival methodology...just for sport. XD

As far as career goals, I wanted to be a comic artist when I was a kid. After high school though, I had all but given up on my art until recently...I entered a couple of art contests during the get-together specifically to get back into and refine my old style. XD

When I was much younger, I wanted to either be a professional athlete or a military person of some sort (it's not all about combat-oriented stuff, you know). Then I shifted towards the traditional lawyer/artist/doctor towards my preteen years. Now I'm seeking to become a science professor for life at a decent university somewhere. My preferred choice of career is still a seafaring pirate, though.

When I was child, the two things I wanted to be were either a firefighter or a policeman. As I grew older, both these career paths did not appeal to me in any way whatsoever I think I used to aspire to be them because I had a firefighter outfit, and I used to watch shows about policemen. It's funny, though, as I look at my cousin who is also wanting to be a firefighter, and he stands up so adamantly to his dream, and I'm curious as to whether or not he'll actually carry it through…

When I was younger, I wanted to be a teacher. I don't really know why, I just wanted to be one. Since then, I decided that wouldn't be the job for me.

Silly Jolene is still silly?

When I was little, I've always wanted to be an astronaut. Then a lawyer like during 5th grade. >__> don't ask why. And now it's off to Computer Engineering...I think.
