As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?

and why?

I wanted to be a teacher. And guess what? I’m living the dream. 😁 at one point though, I was thinking astronaut or astronomer. That one was a no go 😂

@YoungPoet345 Same! Art has been my calling since I was 4. I chose it then and I'm still choosing it everyday 😌❤️

@YoungPoet345 its easier in person , but try finding a putty rubber , and your finger helps creating shading effects with pencil drawings

@NudistS cool, thanks for the tip 🙂

@SW-User It would've been one of my dreams if I was actually fond of children 😅

A vet. And I have no idea why since I hate blood and guts.

A Scot or a pirate. I momentarily thought kilts were cool, but I always did love boats so age 18 I finally bit the bullet and ran away to sea. :-)

A ballerina. I had a pink tutu and everything. I had a ballerina Barbie and I think that was the inspiration as a child.

Something creative. Artist, writer, musician. I just wanted to create. Still do :)
Gelartsyyy · 22-25, F
@SarahAndSamantha Same!! I've always wanted to be an artist and I still do ❤
SarahAndSamantha · 46-50, F
@Gelartsyyy Took me awhile to get there, but I'm actually making a living creatively now. Best feeling in the world.

Milkman or Postman.
I liked the idea of being 'at work' while everybody else was still asleep 🤭

I only knew what I didn't want to be: a nun. Sick, violent, religiously ill perverts!
Before the age of around 12 I wanted to be a teacher. Silly girl.

@NeloAngelo That's fine. It can be as silly as wanting to be an ice cream lol. I heard a child say that before 🤣

I actually vividly remember a conversation I had with my parents about how I wasn’t interested in growing up. It looked really hard and I wasn’t sure I could handle more. 😅
@Mrsbetweenfatandfit Still can't handle it. Where are my nuggets:(
Gelartsyyy · 22-25, F
@Mrsbetweenfatandfit I wanted to grow up quick because I thought I'd have my own house at 18 and be married with a successful career at the age of 23 lmao
iamnikki · 31-35, F
@Mrsbetweenfatandfit I'm still not interested in growing up lol. " I don't wanna grow up, cause if I did, I wouldn't be a toys r us kid" 🎶 😆
