Guest Andrea Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 What did you wanna be when you "grew up"?? I started out wanting to be a vet. Then an artist, then an orthodontist. Actually was enrolled in the Art Institute of Atlanta, but wound up going to a community college and getting married. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M00N Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: What did you want to be? I started off wanting to be a Veterinarian did a lot of volunteer work I also used to obedience/agility train dogs for awhile, too. Then it changed to Naturalist and I took several trips with some local Naturalists watching them do their work and helping here and there with their work. Then I went to web/graphic designer and I've been a freelancer specializing in web/graphic design and multiple other internet and computer related freelance work ever since. I still would like to eventually get into Wildlife Management, just not in this state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckslayer Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Re: What did you want to be? [ QUOTE ] A Conservation Officer. That was until I found out how much time they get to deer hunt. [/ QUOTE ] Yep, exactly my dream... and they started off making half of what I make now per year. After the WCO idea, I went on to get a sponsor (Rep. Murtha) to get into Naval Academy to fly fighters. Turned out I needed an SAT score near 1400, which I didn't get by a little bit... So I ditched that idea and went to college for safety science. Graduated a little over a year ago, and have been at work for the past year in the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Re: What did you want to be? I wanted to be a vet, then before college wanted to ba an Athletic Trainer - still do. They took the major though out of the college curriculum so I became an Outdoor Ed. major. Still would like to be an Athletic Trainer or have some type of medica training, but I wouldn't mind working in a state park or better yet working as a fishing/hunting guide or something along those lines.

BowtechsWife Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Re: What did you want to be? More then anything I wanted to be a pilot. The Airforce wouldn't take me due to a heart condition as a child. So I had enrolled in school in St. Louis to be a flight attendant. The floods hit Iowa and I couldn't make it to St. Louis for orientation and oddly enough that same week I realize how important my family and Steve was to me, so I gave up my registration deposit and stayed in Iowa. I still love to fly and really wish I could do it more. Now I am thinking it would be really neat to be a elementary school teacher. I love kids and I enjoy hearing the stories my teacher friends tell. Since now isn't the time to quit my job and go to school, I settle for volunteering all I can at my girl's schools.

mrswtnhunt Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Re: What did you want to be? Always wanted to be a nurse. When I was 5 years old I had a bad kidney infection and had to be in the hospital for a few days on an IV and Antibiotics. I had a nurse that sat by my bedside for hours holding my hand because I was scared. I vowed then that I wanted to be a nurse so I could help others the way she helped me. Want to know something ironic. The hospital that I was in as a child was changed into a nursing home. I now work in that nursing home as Staff Development Coordinator.
