When you were really little, what did you want to be when you grew up, and why?

Question

From the time I was about 3 years old, I wanted to be an astronaut. My father had taken me to the grocery store, and bought me a balloon. When we got out to the parking lot, I lost hold of the string and it floated away. I was upset, so my father told me that it was going to the moon. From then on, I wanted to go to the moon. I had these amazing visions of the millions of balloons floating around up there, and tiny little me bouncing around collecting them all. Hooray!

Answer 1

i did and still want to be in the army! i dont know why but i would like to be a woman in the army and i like training/shooting/early mornings. i do seriously.

Answer 2

I wanted to be a famous singer, because my idol was a singer. I used to imitate her music when I was 3-4 years old, and I would put on shows for my family, mainly because I enjoyed being the center of attention. Throughout elementary, middle, and high school, I participated in musicals and choir; and as my love of music developed, the focused shifted away from a selfish one and more into a fulfilling, entertainer role.

Interestingly enough, I almost went to music school, but decided on business school instead (the safer choice). Although singing is not my profession, its definitely a hobby. I still sing at Christmas parties, for family and friends, and at karaoke.
