As a Kid, What Did You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

I wanted to be an ice cream lady and an author. Still pursuing the author career, but I'm planning my retirement to be selling ice cream. When I was little, we had the sweetest old man in a classic car with red and white stripes drive around the neighborhood, and he had the best ice cream. I'd love to do that someday.

A vet. And also an airline stewardess, so I could travel. Both could've been good choices since I still love travel and animals.

Vet is TOUGH. I couldn't handle the most basic class and I had to drop it after the first test. It's almost the same intensity as becoming a doctor...sort of. But my college is one of the toughest schools in the nation, but vet is not easy!

Airline stewardess seems like a great gig, but it's long hours and I heard the employers don't treat you right.

I had three things I wanted to be: musician, marine biologist, or a "an inventor". Of what, I was never sure, but when I was really small, I considered the possibility that I could invent the world's first real-life time machine .

Oh, I love the ice cream lady <chuckles>

I remember the sound of the ice cream truck coming!! I would try to buy the biggest item I could

I wanted to be a marine biologist or an advertising executive.

I really enjoyed fifth grade. We studied marine biology and created advertising campaigns. I could draw really well and made posters my classmates liked.

My mom wanted me to be a doctor, and tried to brainwash me, but that idea just didn’t stick.

Everyone expected me to be a concert pianist or a choir teacher. No desire for that though.

Oh, Little Bjornen had a lot of drive to be creative

And you are

You copied off of mine! I'm telling professor Lark.

I’m a copy cat. It’s just what I do

Now, now, children, there will be no copycats on PC

But....

But.....

I also wanted to be a marine biologist when I was in high school and took a tour at HSU because they specialized in that particular field.

And.....

not to copy the airline stewardess.......

But.....

I also wanted to get my pilot license at some point...you know...before I wanted to be a marine biologist.

Oh my. Do we need to create a social group? "Marine Biology Rejects"??

Hahaha, yes!

"In a world, in an ocean, in the Pacific. Three rejects, one crime on hu-manatee. Coming soon to a cult fiction film center near you. Marine. Biology. REJECTS!!!"

Lark. You didn't...

LARK. OMG.

I like the sound of this. I say we form a band

I bet you didn't...sea that coming. Should we call for kelp?

You guys are my underwater friends <3

LL-you are hilarious!!

I can't stop watching, it's so ridiculous. We need a bass who can play bass and a seal to seal the deal

Aaaaand I'm running out of fishie puns.

Something smells...fishy.

Oh, I love this!!

I found our vocalist!

Aaaaand we've completely hijacked your thread and made it ridiculous. Sorry about that.

Oh well, we're having fun, I certainly don't mind
