Very early on, I wanted to be a housewife. I was watching too much TV back in the day. :p
As I got older, I wanted to be a sportswriter. In fact, reading about controversial Reggie Jackson led me into journalism.
I didn't expect to be a business journalist, but glad that I am one today.
:D

Between the ages of 4 and 17......


I wanted to be like Claire Huxtable and become a lawyer

I wanted to be one of the Miss Americas like Debbye Turner

I wanted to be a police officer...because I thought that they were all nice people who didn't get hurt :(

I wanted to be a college professor because my dad and I thought that I didn't have the temperment of a secondary school teacher

I wanted to be a medical doctor because I wanted to help people

And I wanted to own my own hair salon on the side of the lawyer gig so that I could make a lil' extra CHANGE (think: Cedric the Entertainer in Orig. Kings) on the side.

Let's begin at the beginning...

First I wanted to be a palentologist (sp). Then I started to think that by the time I finished school, all of the dinosaur bones would be dug (is that a word) up, so I let that go. :rolleyes:

Then, astronaut but then there was that whole thing with the challenger. :(

Then, lawyer--that would be the familial influence.

Publishing--always loved to read, so I figured this would be the perfect occupation.

Finally, teaching--decided I wanted to try an do something meaningful with my life.

Right now--I don't know. I am going to get a degree and then we will see what happens. :cool:

Aero. Engineer throughout HS
Fly Girl on In Living Color
Fashion designer
Personal shopper
Stylist (hair and clothes)
Computer programmer (for a hot sec!).. i'm still trying to define RAM... so what was this about?

*not in any particular order*

i'm still searching

Always...
 

I always wanted to be a teacher. My mother tells me that when I was smaller, all I wanted to play was "school". When my sister came around I'd just force her to take these made up tests for her and everything :D It was sick!

I still want to teach, but it's High School now...I'm an English major so I'll probably become the same English teacher you hated when you were in school...:D

I was just reminding my sister yesterday that when she was little, how she wanted to be in the educational field as well...as a bus driver though :p She never wants to be reminded of that!!

I wanted to be a fly girl as well:D (but I think being a strobelitehoney, i can get my dance on erry now and den, so i am a fly girl in my own way,) right? ha ha ha

an olypmic runner to run with flo jo ( I may not be marion jones, but the masters olympics held every year rev's me up to get out there and run) :D

Someone helping homeless people, abused children, and battered women, (I've helped so many)

at the age of 10 I wanted to be Someone to make all the women wake up and understand that women were not meant to cater to men hand and foot. (and my aunt always said, keep dreaming that ain't gonna happen:mad:) and look at us now, women have EVOLVED TO CAREER MINDED PEOPLE, who no longer chase men, or feel we need to (I have empowered many to choose their own paths)
Man, had i listened to my aunt, i'd probably be just how she was.
:rolleyes:

But none the less, psychology was my major, so I think i am on the right path.

Y'all are killing me with your "Fly Girl" aspirations. LMAO.

I wanted to be a pediatrician...until I hit DC and Howard U...and then I wanted to be a lobbyist..like Wade Henderson and work for the Washington Bureau of the NAACP. In all seriousness, that's still my true career goal...but here in little Monterey, CA that's not much of a career option. Hopefully, I'll be able to work my way into the political arena at some point in my life.

LoL
 

I wanted to be a
1.Singer till my dad my me sing a solo (when i had a cold) in front of thousands and i do mean Thousands of people:rolleyes: I sounded BADDDDD

3. A Model.Until My neighbor *once again* said i had to model naked the first time, turn around and shake my butt to the crowed... lol.. :rolleyes:

4. A McDonalds manager b/c they made 25 cent more and get to eat free..

5. I use to always beat my cousins climbing trees and everyone in the neighborhood use to brag on me;) so I asked my worldly smart neighbor:rolleyes: how much I could make climbing trees.. he said 10 dollars an hour..Boy!! Was I thinking of all the candy I could buy..LOL...


L.OL I had a neighbor from HELL..:D

I swear, CT4 won't let you live down your embarrassing childhood moments ! ! ! ! That's alright cuz I love her anyway.

a doctor (pediatrician)
a lawyer
a crime scene investigator
an actress
to marry an NBA player
a profiler
a mother
a model (I actually went to modeling school for a minute)
a baton twirler (did that for 2 years)

thats all I can come up with.

Re: LoL
 

Okay yeah, your neighbor had some serious Rra like tendencies. :eek:

LOL I wanted to be a computer programmer too. I was crazy to say the least. You have to be a certain kind of person to enjoy computer programming and I am not that person! :D BTW RAM=Random Access Memory

When I was younger I wanted to be:

-A beautician (I still want to learn how to do hair and nails but not do it professionally. Just hook up my family and friends.)

-A doctor

-A lawyer

I am still thinking about the lawyer thing so I can combine my computer skills and knowledge with that and become a tech lawyer for companies like Napster and Morpheus.

Early on I wanted to be a nurse.

Then I wanted to be a pediatrician. As someone else stated, I realized that I would be in school forever so I let that one go.

Before entering college I wanted to be a psychiatrist or psychologist. Infact my major was psychology upon entering undergrad.

Well now my major is Family and Child Studies and I have no idea what I'll do with the degree so I'm going to grad school as well to buy myself some time and maybe get a clearer vision.

When I was little, I wanted to be an OB/GYN...that's how much i loved the Cosby Show

Then, as I got into high school the thought of physical therapy came to mind.

College...nursing was my thing until Organic Chemistry whipped my butt :confused:

Somehow, I switched majors from nursing to, speech pathology, to english, and FINALLY Communications and STILL graduated in 4 years...

But when it's all said and done...I really want to be a greeter at Super Walmart:D

As a child, I've wanted to be.....
