When I grow up, I want to be a physical education teacher, just like Mom and Dad...or maybe a cartographer...no wait a marine biologist...well, actually, a composer and concert pianist...why was I not born during the Renaissance?
I’ve always wanted to grow into some graceful combination of the following components:
1) She-ra / some version of the warrior princess.
2) An "inn-keeper" / one who runs a B&B by the sea.
3) A pirate / a vagabond / an explorer on a boat or in a submarine.
4) (A pre-Henry Higgins) Eliza Doolittle / Madonna circa True Blue / an actual mermaid.

I want to be a businessman when I grow up, mainly because my parents own a business and I've always been around their work. Beyond that anything "computer related" as we have always had a computer since they first came out and I am always playing around with it.

NathanIllusionist
Between the ages 6 and 11, my life was consumed by the acquisition and manipulation of Legos. If my mom didn’t make me clean my room periodically, the floor would have been covered wall to wall with a lego civilization, complete with public transportation, a space program, and a representative government. It hurt like hell to step on them in bare feet though.
What was the question? Oh, a Fireman.
