I also said figure skater! Although it made more sense since I actually took figure skating lessons. I had a grand plan where I would coach figure skating during the school year and drive an ice cream truck in the summer.
My mom wasn't all about this plan and told me I could be anything I wanted - even president! I asked her what the president did, and when she told me, I informed her in a very serious voice, "That sounds like a lot of responsibility. I don't think I would like that." I was about 5 years old at the time.
