    Well I'm still a teenager. I went through many ideas of my future career. When I was 4-6 a singer; 7-10 it was a constant switch between archaeologist and paleontologist; now a days I want to help people, and something medicine has always been my type of thing, so right now and for a few years I've wanted t become a psychiatrist so I can administer medicine and help people with what problems they might be dealing with, I'm starting to like the idea of being a judge, just the knowledge intrigues me and I'm told all the time that I'll change the world. So I hope this answers a little.

    I wanted to be a vet but then it turned out I was allergic to fur so that dream went down the drain.

    Then I wanted to be a lawyer for the money but I kind of got really into art and writing so I decided to do something with that.

    Now I'm in my teens and I want to do something art-related. Recently, I've really want to be one of the people that make models of peoples faces from their skulls so that the police can see what they look like and can identify them. It probably has a name but I don't know what it is.

    Or an author. I have so many great ideas for books and stories. I have an entire journal full of plot ideas and many more notebooks filled with poems and songs.

    And I really want to start my own band. I have a lot of songs already written and I'm getting a guitar for Christmas so I'll be able to start writing my own music within the next year or two. But with all the struggling musicians out there who've been at it their entire lives, I doubt I'll have a chance.

    A doctor, but I don't like blood and guts lol. Well I don't know what career I really want. I'm studying International Relations, Geography and Sociology next year at University. So a Government Dept. could be probable. I love Geography and sometimes I am able to answer questions my teacher can't, so I wouldn't mind being a Geography teacher, but I've been told I can do something a bit higher paying.

    But hey, who knows? I've got plenty of time to decide.

    I was constantly changing "what I wanted to be when I grow up" as a child.

    From about the ages of 5 to 10 I wanted to be an archeologist, I had a fascination with dinosaurs and I wanted to study them and dig for bones and stuff.

    Then I went through a phase of wanting to be a meterologist and I was particulary interested in studying cyclones/tornados.

    Then when I was about 13, 14 I got into drama and wanted to become a famous actress (I was in a band in high school also and thought for about 5 mins that I would be a rock n roll star) but reality soon clicked in and at about 15 I thought I would be a teacher and teach English and Drama.

    Then I dropped outta highschool, became a teenage mum at 18 and 6 years later, Im the office manager of a carpet cleaning company! Thats life!

    At first a vet, then I realized I hated blood and guts and would hate to see sick and/or dying animals so that was not going to be it. Then I went to acting camp and saw that I really liked that. So I decided I anted to be an entertainer. I got into animation and thought that doing voice over would be really awesome! So right at the moment (I am not old enough to work) I want to do something concerning Film/Animation (not drawing) but like scripts or storyboards or acting/voice over work!
