When I was little I said I was going to be a lawyer because my parents were lawyers.
In High School, I wanted to get a PhD in Psychology, focusing on Gifted Education.
I also wanted to major in musical theatre, and perform on Broadway. My mom told me I was "too smart to be an actress" and only minimally encouraged my performing
I realize now I don't have the talent (or nerves) necessary for being a professional performer, but I wish I would have had more vocal and dance training.
In college I started as a Computer Science major; I quickly transferred to Information Systems.
Midway through my Sophomore year, I decided to go to law school. I want(ed) to specialize in Intellectual Property and Internet law.
Some days, I hate myself for taking the "safe" path. As I sit here listening to the Will Rogers Follies soundtrack (the last show I was in) I realize how much I miss performing.
