We live in Florida, so my parents even sent me to Space Camp a few times. I simultaneously wanted to be a marine biologist, as well.<br /> Enter high school; I realized I couldn't do more than basic math or physical science to save my life. So those dreams died rather quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-39667 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 09:24:52 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 39667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A vet! haha, a classic i think amongst young kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-39620 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 05:43:05 +0000 mediagirl 39620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>An astronaut or a veterinarian. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-39138 Wed, 21 Dec 2011 12:58:00 +0000 Clementine 39138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be a Supreme Court Justice... too bad, reading long court cases bored me to tears, so I never ended up in law school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38891 Wed, 21 Dec 2011 07:52:22 +0000 tequiero21 38891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i wanted to be a vet. but i found at in jhs and hs that i sucked at science. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38647 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 18:36:57 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 38647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A marine biologist. I wanted to study sharks, specifically great whites. I had a hard time with Freshman Biology so I doubt I could have fulfilled my child hood dream if I wanted to. I still love reading about sharks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38637 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 18:21:35 +0000 banana 38637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be an anchorwoman. Looked like fun for some reason and I would always be practicing in front of my parents, making up fake news about things that were going on in my neighborhood. Like "Fuzzy the next door neighbor's cat has been missing for 4 days. Nobody has heard from her. Her food tray remains full and she not eaten anything for 4 days. Please call us if you know where she is."</p> <p>I'm a banker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38616 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 17:54:07 +0000 MaisyMay 38616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was really little I wanted to be an archaeologist because it was the longest word I could spell. Yeah, I was a nerd. I did get to help out on an excavation once though. After that I wanted to be a teacher and stuck with that one. I taught last year but got laid off, so I manage a bridal salon now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38526 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:32:25 +0000 Rescuemom10 38526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was really young I wanted to be a vet and fly. So I could "fly sick animals around to better places" Yeah I dont know...hahaha. As I hit Jr. High I wanted to join the Military, I did so I guess that worked out. Now I work FOR the military even though I am no longer in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-38522 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:29:50 +0000 heffalump 38522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A music therapist. I was a weird kid. But I actually ended up being an art therapist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37945 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 02:44:45 +0000 SAHM0811 37945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>an astronaut when I was really little... then a doctor for most of my childhood, but that was mostly because of my parents' wishes. thank goodness I didn't become a doctor though. I have seen firsthand the hours they work. I couldn't do it and respect those who do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37937 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 02:02:12 +0000 Boogs 37937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A lawyer because I liked to argue, lol! I couldn't imagine actually doing that now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37907 Tue, 20 Dec 2011 00:56:12 +0000 DigAPony 37907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be a singer and started out college studying opera. Unfortunately, I just couldn't hack it, but it was also no fun, so it all worked out. </p> <p>Now I'm a writer and a teacher at a university. I'd also like to become a doula someday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37803 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 23:02:28 +0000 mrstilly 37803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be (in order of age from 5ish to late teens) a ballerina, a cowboy, a veterinarian, a lawyer, a teacher, a therapist. </p> <p>I was insistent that I was going to be a cowboy, not a cowgirl. When I was in middle school our family's vet let me ride around with him for a few days, which was pretty cool. Then in middle school/high school when my parents were divorcing, my siblings and I were in counseling. I remember thinking that our therapist didn't have a clue and I could do it better. </p> <p>Now I'm a social worker for kids in residential care, and a big part of my job is therapy with kids and teens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37747 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 22:11:54 +0000 mrbee 37747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be a business person.

I probably could have made that goal if my parents had a lot more money... they did their best though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37631 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:24:43 +0000 Rosie Girl 37631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A vet. I would still be a vet too if the YEARS of college didn't scare me away! I also wanted to be a teacher and a nurse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37579 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:10:47 +0000 Mrs. Bee 37579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a lawyer. i can't imagine myself being a lawyer now though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-want-to-be-when-you-were-a-kid#post-37519 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 20:39:31 +0000 Andrea 37519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to be a doctor for most of my childhood.
