  6. A Vet. I got pushed into Law as my parents were both in that profession but at the age of 26 i decided to step out of their shadow and i started training in Veterinary Medicine. I'm now in my 5th year.

  9. A marine biologist. No lie. I used to love those "under the sea" nature programs on PBS.

    Then I saw Jaws and became afraid of the ocean.(thanks Peter Benchley).

    I always said I wanted to live alone,never marry,and never have kids.

    I married a military guy,had a son, and got divorced.Only part I am happy with there is my son, who does make me very happy.More so than anything else in this world.

    I'm taking up graphic design, and art in general does make me happy.

    Everyone is different.They may grow up and be happy in what they decided on when they were children, or be like me and completely veer off course,end of completely happy or miserable.Either way, life is choices and happiness is a state of mind.
