What did you want to be?

I fancied being an author like Angela carter but as I was lazy I never tried. Tbh I've never had a dream to be anything else. I am a teacher because it more interesting and rewarding than anything else I could do/ had done.

It's a somewhat nonsensical mish-mash of several quantum theories/observations:

1. Electrons can be in two places at once (see: double-slit experiments).

2. Solid objects can pass through solid barriers, with no change to their own or the barrier's structure (see: quantum tunnelling).

3. Observing one of a set of possible outcomes removes the probability of other outcomes happening (see: Schrodinger's cat)

4. Selena occupies parallel universes where she either falls in the water or turns back for home (see: Many Worlds Interpretation).

I love the Big Bang Theory. Ha.

I wanted to be a dancer or choreographer. Then I met my OH + discovered nightclubs (I was 16 going on 17 when I met my OH) and my thursday + friday night dance classess went out the window. don't mind though, met someone who makes me happier than any job could!!

You know what...I think I really do occupy a parallel universe. Perhaps it's just as well I didn't become an archaeologist after all.

1. Woohoo! I've read about that

2. She can slither right through the pier and into the water

3.What?

I wanted to be a teacher, I am a teacher, I don't aways want to be a teacher anymore- as I don't like paperwork or early mornings! But I do love my kiddies- most days!

Footlong can I adopt you?

The first thing I remember wanting to be was a My Little Pony. When I realised that wasn't possible, I moved onto Spiderman.Then a nurse, like my mummy , but then she told me about all the poo and I changed my mind and decided I wanted to work with kids. Then decided I wanted to be a mechanic and loved it, but when I was told by colleges that I would have to do a years intensive theory course to 'catch up' to the boys (!!!) I changed my mind as I was already fed up with school. Was then forced (asked nicely by my mummy and didn't want to disappoint her) to do A-levels, and decided I wanted to be a forensic scientist/pathologist. Found Chemistry too hard to get better than a D and got so bored with Biology and so distracted with more fun outside school stuff, that I only got a C in that. Thought about using my Psychology A-level to become some kind of profiler type thing, then I needed some pennies so got a job working in a bookies, never went to uni and now I'm a stupid bus driver. Where's that long pier??

I wanted to be an Archaeologist, teacher, nurse, model (my dreams were shattered as I am 5ft3!!) and a singer!! I am now an Estate agent!!? haha xxx

I wanted to be an air hostess, i did owrk in the travel industry for 6 years selling holidays and flying all over the world now im a service administrator in a big hospital

I also wanted to be an air hostess but was informed by someone that I may be alittle too short to do the job (5ft1). Then I wanted to be a Midwife, ended up doing Nursing and just started my 3rd year at uni... Not sure I will be able to get a job once I leave. Will probs go on to do more courses...

Looks like i will never leave education...

Me too...I forgot to add that one!

I wanted to be a barrister from age 14. Circumstances resulted in a 2:2 law degree bye bye dreams.

I am a legal aid solicitor and I wouldn't change it as I do most of my own court work and it means I can see the case from start to finish.

I wanted to be a tv presenter or a dolphin trainer. I work in an office in the finance sector. Being a grown up SUCKS

I wanted to work in a sweet shop because a) I like sweets and b) I wanted to have a go on a till as it looked fun.
I have a degree in genetics but am now an IT contractor doing nothing related to science whatsoever....

When I was little I wanted to be....

a) A teacher (when you're five you don't know many professions)

b) A mummy (same as above)

Then when I was a teenager I wanted to be...

A) A psychologist (because it's cool)

B) An Aeronautical Engineer (because its cooler than Engineering with anything else)

Now I when grow up I want to design Roller Coasters

But I work in a Cinema Head Office as an Analyst......

Something didn't work out there ?

I wanted to be a teacher or an interior designer (was the changing rooms era!)

I am now a nurse & pretty happy with that

Ha me too, but managed to avoid legal aid. I do family law - what about you?

First of all I wanted to be a pop star, then I wanted to be a TV presenter, then I wanted to be a zoologist, then I wanted to build movie sets and now I'm an event manager!

Quite happy as my job is really fast paced and I still get to be creative!

Ooh Eclair, I'm an OT and love it, feel free to ask if you want to know anything.

When I was a child I wanted to be an author, until I realised I had no writing talent. When I was at uni I wanted to be a clinical psychologist until I realised my heart wasn't really in it, and now I'm an occupational therapist.
