My youngest memory is being a locomotive operator on the railroad. Now I finally reached my life goal; retired!

@OldBrit hey at least you tried!👍
OldBrit · 61-69, M
@Primnproper ex members of teenage bands of mine did make it. I assumed my chance was just around the corner. I ignored the obvious fact that they were infinitely more talented than me 😂
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@OldBrit sometimes its just being in the right place at the right time..
SunshineGirl · 36-40, F
I wanted to be a ballerina and a gymnast. Ended up as an actuarist, but might redeem myself by retraining as a maths teacher 🙂
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@SunshineGirl as long as you're happy thats the main thing..👍
windinhishair · 61-69, M
I wanted to be a paleontologist when I was young. I didn't go into paleontology, but now I enjoy it on a non-professional level.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Primnproper Yes. I wanted knowledge to understand the world better. I still do.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@windinhishair well that knowledge will never stop being available, theres always some new popping up.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Primnproper There is always something new to learn, and that keeps life interesting.

I was interested in electronics and music...they are both still in my life.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@fun4us2b wow, very inventive!
fun4us2b · M
@Primnproper It must've sounded terrible! My poor parents...
Primnproper · 56-60, F

Geologist or an Archeologist. When I was in middle school I decided I wanted to be a librarian.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@nonsensiclesnail that’s quite a leap and…..?
@windinhishair @Primnproper I ended up going to college for architecture and education. I was talked into the education degree. it suits me, but I didn't want to do it. And then I never finished college. So no, I still beat me up everyday for this. I really love the idea of being a librarian.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@nonsensiclesnail could you not still fulfil it in some capacity now…

What is an air hostess if I may ask?

@Casheyane above is basically right, they see to your needs whilst flying in planes, drinks, food etc..
JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

HumanEarth · 56-60, F
I wanted to be an army man, police man, semi truck driver, a superhero and many different things when I was little.

But the two most important ones I couldn't do, because of my seizure disorder I had a child and now it has returned in my later years of life.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
Locomotive engineer. 🚂🚃🚃🚃
JustNik · 51-55, F
The only profession I remember considering was teaching. I had the smartest Barbies on the block. 😂 it is one thing I didn’t follow through with that I think was for the best.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@JustNik 😁😁😆
Piper · 61-69, F
Yes, I wanted to be animal doctor. Preferably one who could communicate with animals like Doctor Dolittle, if possible.

Adogslife · 61-69, M
I wanted to be a lawyer. I’m not a big fan of them today. I think the legal system is broken.
Primnproper · 56-60, F
@Adogslife you're not wrong..
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
I didn't think about who I wanted to be but what I wanted to do. I wanted to study and breed butterflies but I'm not entirely sure if I thought about it in relation to future, let alone a job. It was what I wanted to do then and perhaps hoped to keep doing that. I also wanted to watch and learn about birds...you know, when it was too early for butterflies so all I saw in nature were birds coming to the feeders.
Then I lost interest, of course. 😆
Wol62 · 51-55, M
I bet you've got the uniform though.
Primnproper · 56-60, F

@Wol62 I’m not discussing my dressing up wardrobe with you! 😂😂 behave yourself. Lol

Ballerina briefly though it quickly became obvious to me that aside from other barriers, you have to have no life whatsover to get anywhere and be beyond amazing. 😅
Not really. I remember that pressure to grow up and work. I was directed to work all the time by my parents, and everything I did was ordered by them.
Wol62 · 51-55, M
Actually I wanted to be the usual, astronaut, fireman or a secret agent.
