What was your dream job?

Palaeontologist. I realized I sucked at school and probably wouldn’t make it to university. Still, love me some science. Even if I understand about 20% of it. I’m not religeous but I imagine my belief in science is like others who believe in religion. Because I have a basic understanding, I’m happy to take leaps of faith in sciences favour. Bascially I’m still waiting for Jurassic park to open.
Correction. This is how you TOOK over the world.Yes.
Take that euphemism. But also, another thing I've known since I was probably ten: I can do anything if I go slow enough and work hard enough. This is how I will take over the world.
I always wanted to be a model. Well....I guess part of that came true ,) I've been a lingerie model for 12 years now lol

To stay home, and take care of my family. Start another daycare from home, and have kids. Or to get a space out of the city, and create a KIds fun park. An out door one, with jumbo trampolines, andl lots of space to run around.. I'd have swings everywhere, nurf guns, and bubble machines blowing. Ideally I'd also like to have a petting zoo area, and a clibling area. The kids would go home though after so many hours, the ones that weren't mine at least. My mom didn't work because I have lots of sibling and we were her full time job and I liked it that way.
I wanted to be a singer as well, and I pursued it up until 19, but then life got too busy for the lessons, and I was doing other things. That's probably the big one though. I loved to sing, and sang in school choir from grade 1 stragiht though, as well as church choir. I switched to working with a vocal instructor at 16 becuase choir ended, but life got busy. I'm not exactly sure why I stopped altogether. Musicians/ singers/artists run in my family. I'd like to have my book published at some point. I started writing poetry at 7, as well as everything else in the world that came to mind, and I still have all my work. I've compiled it into one place, which took me forever, becuase that's one thing I've never stopped doing. I wrote on everything as well, which was fun sorting. Restaurant menus, news papers, pretty much any kind of paper if I didnt have my book on me..
There's something intimate about a pen, piece of paper, paired with time and a quiet spot.
During the late 50's through the early 70's, I grew up a 1 hour train ride to Yankee Stadium and later Shea was added in 64. My grandfather took me to about 25 - 30 games a year.I saw some legendary Yankees and Mets. With that being said, I wanted to be a baseball player. It was an amazing time to be a kid in new England. Was decent player in my teens, destroyed my right elbow, dream over

Im doing it, been cooking since I left the army. Every day is different, thinking on your feet. Wont get rich doing it but youll never go hungry. Cooking a nice meal for a lady is enjoyable
What is it with that?...Im the same way , I love to cook for a sexy lady.
Although your probably better at it than I am.
Dreams become reality when you start taking steps to make them happen. Tomorrow is a good day to begin.
Its not that hard to make a great meal for a lady. Key is to make something she doesn't get everyday. Cornish game hen w/ cherry sauce , salmon in foil when opened has an amazing aroma, home made cheesecake (hazelnut skor w/ irish cream ganache) all simple dishes to make but the ladies remember you and appreciate the effort
Great you had some fabulous teachers to encourage you in elementary school. I had the opposite. My grade 8 teacher told me I should sign up for the two year shop program in high school and drop out after grade ten to take a factory job, because I would not achieve much in life.
Like you, I couldn't help but be influenced by her words. I chose to prove her wrong (a fuck you bitch) response and graduated high school, excelled in University and got a post graduate scholarship and a Masters Degree. Her five or six class pets who she continually heaped praise on in front of the other students ended up pregnant by Grade ten or stoners. I think two of them graduated high school made it to University and failed because all they did was party. I think of that teacher often every time I check my bank account.

Amen! What a curse to be popular in high school. Imagine peaking at 16. Talk about running out the clock from there. Faaaaack!
I tried game hen on a date once.......FYI, don't shoot the bird out of a tree, with your date standing behind you.
When I was little I wanted to be a teacher (honestly) But the older I got, the less I had illusions about this work. Now I am a professional driver, however, I like it too) As a hobby, I have an online game like https://duckdice.io/lottery. All together allows me to feed my family and pay the mortgage. Probably you can say that I am happy. Although early dreams didn't coincide with the real reality.

ROFL good idea,especially if you only winged it (pardon the pun) and have to finish it of with your Damascus bowie knife. Next thing you know,you've invited a vegetarian for dinner
Of course not, Sy... you have to be a gentleman and let her shoot it for herself... ;>)
That would be a complete leap of faith, handing over my weapon.....unless of course she has her own,and snaps off a shot before me.
I'm not sure if I could handle that.
About five years after graduating I met our high school quarterback and reigning jock. He was sitting on a bench in pigeon park all messed up.
It was really sad. He had everything going for him and just fell apart after high school.
