Vet

Answer 2

i always wanted to be an air hostess, they looked so classy walking out of the arrivals with straight postures, perfect smiles and a classy uniform.

but lately that dream has sort of worn thin, since ive developed a small fear of flying (despite being a frequent flyer). plus i get really sick from jet lag, so it wouldnt be a very practical job for me.

Answer 9

In elementary school, I mainly wanted to draw comics and write stories.

In middle school, I wanted to be a journalist.

In high school, I wanted to be a journalist.  After being a journalist on the high school paper, I decided that I wanted to be a writer/artist of children's books.

In college, I decided to be an elementary school teacher.  I quit college and became a stay-at-home mom.  

Now, I am working on being a writer of children's books.
