What did you want to be when you grow up?

[Rummy]

Ok, here's the skinny, somebody is going out for their birthday in a few weeks and I'm invited along, but of course as alot of girls seem to like doing, she wants it to be fancy dress with a theme of what you wanted to be when you were older when you were little.

That's what's important here, what did you WANT to be when you were LITTLE, not like what do you want to be now, unless it's the same, but yeah, you get the gist.

The reason I'm making this is partly for the fun factor, but also because my memory/ambition as a child was clearly limited, and I have no idea what to go as that isn't something boring(i used to say i wanted to be a 'reporter', which i think was the equivalent of a journalist but I didn't know that then because I was like 5 and not many 5 year olds know the word journalist, but I digress!). So, basically, post all your childhood ambitions so that me and my friend can totally jack your five year old dream jobs, due to our rubbishness.

I wanted to be a police constable , currently im a police community support officer at the grand old age of 18

[Noodleman]

I really wanted to be a pilot in the RAF from the ages of about 5-10 until somebody pointed out that you need 20:20 vision to be a jet fighter pilot. I however do not. DREAMS CRUSHED.

[Eenuh]

I wanted to have a bakery together with my sister, cause then we could make yummy breads and pies and cakes (and taste them). That dream vanished quickly when we found out you have to get up really early to bake.

 

Also wanted to become a vet at some point, cause of my love for animals. But then I figured I'm not that good with blood and intestines and all that, so that dream disappeared too.

 

And of course an astronaut. Everyone wants to fly to the moon and the stars, no?

[EchoDesiato]

I wanted to become a doctor...

[Goron_3]

A doctor...and eventually a plastic surgeon (yeah, i've watched wayyy too much Nip/Tuck)

[Letty]

I wanted to be a butcher.

 

I was fascinated with blood and the insides of animals >_>

[spirited away]

I wanted to be a Marine Biologist, was fascinated with dolphins and whales

[mcj metroid]

game designer the usual

[McMad]

God.

 

Can't wait either btw.

[weeyellowbloke]

I wanted to be a wildlife cameraman. To be the guy that gets the footage for all the documentaries I watched as a kid. Either that or a vet. But somehow my childhood love of fossils has led me on to geology.

[DCK]

Wanted to me an astronomer. I was a nerd at young age already

[Supergrunch]

I wanted to be an inventor.

 

And also Willy Wonka at some stage I believe.

[Jon]

Either a Doctor or an Airline Pilot.

[Chris the great]

i wanted to be a palientologyst. then i realised that 8 months in the desert with hairy lesbians and bearded fat men would probebly get boring after 3 days.

[Shorty]

Astronaut.

[DanielTimothy]

Dolphin or a fireman.

[Bren]

I wanted to be a Marine Biologist, was fascinated with dolphins and whales

 

me too, except with coral reef's etc.

[Konfucius]

I wanted to be an inventor. My goal was to invent a car that can drive with water - but it seems I got beaten to it.

Anyways I hopefully become a Mechanical Engineer in five years time.

[Stocka]

Football player

[kellett03]

yoda, lol

[killthenet]

My cousin wanted to be an action figure.

 

I just wanted to be Denver The Last Dinosaur.

[Caris]

I want to open my own Computer Shop up

[The Bard]

I wanted to play music in a band. A very naive goal to be sure.

[Hellfire]

I wanted to be a fireman. Now, I don't really know, I guess a computer engineer, game designer would be nice, but I guess I'm more cut out to play with computers than to work with them. Being a billionaire would be nice.
