No, not in the way I wanted it to be, I wanted to be the wife of my childhood crush, but I’m glad things aren’t that way now.

Considering I never had a solid idea of what I wanted to do when I grow up, I'm doing it, lol. I'm gonna give beauty school a shot I think.

I wanted to be a lot of things as a kid.... a lawyer, an artist, a writer, a political activist, an unemployed hippie, lol!!! Yea, I was an interesting kid, lol!!!

As an adult I have been very lucky to do most all of those things (except the lawyer thing, changed my tune on that one, lol!)... I worked as a fiber artist for several years and still occasionally sell my work, I have had several books and MANY shorts published (erotica and urban fantasy/paranormal romance), I have been an activist for many causes over the years, and am currently loving the unemployed hippie gig!! I have also done a dozen other things I never imagined as a kid. I get bored easy, and love making my living following my heart and whims!!

I'm pretty much not doing anything I'd planned on doing as a child.

Nope, my super powers never kicked in, at least not yet.

Kind of. When I was 3, my mom has a video of me saying I wanted to be a mommy. I did that. But I also wanted to be a vet, a therapist and an accountant. I'm only a mommy, but my current career fulfills me more than those others!

I wanted to be either a doctor or a physical therapist when I was a kid. I'm about to be a physical therapy assistant when I graduate this summer and I am also a massage therapist, so I guess I sort of followed what I wanted to do.
