Am I the first one to notice something wrong with the title?
What did you want to be/do when you grew up?
Anyway, back on topic.
I had wanted to be a vet when I was a little and that dream lasted long, but ended with a, "Really?" After watching to much ID I thought I wanted to be a detective even though I don't have a lot of good deductive skill a lot of times though I was surprised when I found out I didn't want to be that.

It went from vet to primary school teacher to nurse to forensic scientist to vet to primary school teacher and now I'm back to forensic scientist.
I wanted to be a vet for a very long time. I would still love to work with animals, but forensic science if just wayy to interesting.

First I wanted to be a nurse, then I wanted to be a psychologist, and then I wanted to be a cop. xD
Now I want to be either a writer or a doctor.

For most of my childhood, I wanted to be an English teacher and an author. This fall, I'll be starting college. I plan to major in English/education and minor in writing.

Ever since I was younger, I wanted to pursue music, like be a famous singer or be in a Broadway musical. Sometimes nowadays, I wish I could just drop out of school, move to Nashville and become a country singer....I've been singing since I was young and I really love it, and I've been told I have talent! I don't think being famous would exactly work out that well for me, it's not all that realistic, so I'll probably go into the medical field, I'd love to be a nurse, specializing in labor or delivery.

When I was 5 or 6 I wanted to be a farmer.
When I was 9 or 10 I wanted to be a basketball player.
In middle school I wanted to be a veterinarian.
In high school I wanted to be a doctor.
In early college I wanted to be a pharmacist.
Then I finally settled on being a doctor and I doctor I am becoming!

Well for the longest time, I wanted to be a teacher. Until I got into grade 9 and took welding, then I decided I wanted to be a welder. I've graduated college for such and it's getting me nowhere. So now, I'm debating on going back to school to become a Youth Worker, specializing in Troubled Teens. Either that, or helping out with Special Needs Students. But I don't think I'll be able to do it.

I think I already mentioned that I wanted to be a cop. I will tell something more. I thought it would be wonderful to be a cop and to put the bad criminals in prison. I even thought about it until 14/15 years old. At 15/16 years old I knew someone who had been innocent while being arrested and hitted very hard by a policeman, during a manifestation. At that moment I said: 'No. I don't want to do that.' It's quit cynical, because a lot of people know me like 'the little girl that wanted to be a cop', while now I nearly dislike them.

Now I want to be a psychologist, I think, but if anyone asks me I say I want to be a cryptozoologist, just to watch their reactions.

I wanted to do a lot of things to be honest, especially since I was the age of 10. I wouldn't stop talking about wanting to a doctor,lawyer,teacher,dancer,etc.I had certain aspirations that came to mind. I'm still trying to figure what I want in life. I don't know 100 percent of what I want be/do. But I'm definitely leaning towards to working with people,possible do some missionary work,especially in Africa. And I'm always up for something new. :]
