What did you want to do for a living as a child vs what do you want to dow (or are doing) now?


When I was a kid I just wanted to be a Vet, I still do but it's difficult for me to do online study and there are no options for me to do the course locally on a campus so I'm now looking at doing a degree in Nursing. I want to work on the ER floor. I'm really surprisingly calm and controlled when is comes to emergencies and dying people.

I performed CPR on my dying friend when he was hit by a car when I was 14 years old. He died in my arms twice and I was so calm it's scary.

Wanted, and still wish, to be a pilot. Horrendous eyesight prevented that from being feasible.

Now I'm just jobless.

I'm a jobless bum at the moment, Probably the main reason for my depression now that I think about it.
I considered being a pilot for the Australian Air Force but I have shitty eyesight too so that dream was very short lived.

I wanted to be an Astronaut when I was a kiddie

And now I want to work with robots, maybe like robotic limbs and stuff

Astronaut then, Astronaut now; space is mine.

Never knew what i wanted to do when i was a kid.

Now i want to work in federal law enforcement.

so you can visit your dad in jail?

I've thought about astronomy briefly and very recently. Until I tried to find somewhere to study that in Australia and said "fuck this, I'm not moving across the country."

Paleontologist
Historian
Writer
Psychologist

Now I don't know what I want to be.

well i can't really remember what i wanted to be when i was a kid.

I remember i got really interested in astronomy in the 10th grade and thought about but figured out i hate physics and its a very limited filed

Finally ended up going to school for computer science based on wanting a high paying, guaranteed job. First semester of my second year into it and I'm not enjoying it too very much at all. I can do the work fairly easily I'm just not interested nor enjoy it. I've decided tomorrow to switch majors to Political Science which is what I originally wanted to major in since I've always had a passion for politics. I was prioritizing money and a wide job market over what I love which was a mistake and actually after a little research the poli sci job market isn't nearly as limited as I once believed in fact its a little more prosperous than Computer Science since a lot of those jobs are getting exported to India. Also what persuaded me is how much my university's poli sci department helps their graduates get a job.

I've never really thought about money. I don't know how I would be able to survive working doing something I don't enjoy. That's not living. That's also why I'm currently jobless. The very limited number of jobs in this area don't interested me so I don't try hard enough to get employed.

There's nothing within a 6 hour radius where I can study astronomy. q_q

Fair enough. Seriously, only reason is visit Australia is to fuck batch and go in the desert and witness the stars

Australia is 2big

You should move here to NZ!

I'm too much of a pussy to move to another country without my family and all my animals.

I seriously told people when I was very young I wanted to be Godzilla. Destroying buildings would be the sickest shit.



But now, I don't have a complete idea for what I want to do. I'm currently trying to get into programming for video games, but it's not the most concrete desire.
