When I was 5 I was convinced that I would be a bus driver. I mean, what kid doesn't look forward to getting on the big yellow transportationmobile and heading off to school with all the "big kids"? So, in my little mind, driving it would be even better! Ya, that dream faded quickly when I realized how gross school busses were.
I matured at 6 and was sure I would be an Olympic gymnast by the time I was 15. I mean, I was in the rainbow program and headed onto the competitive team. Duh, the Olympics is next! Sadly, the American's won the 1996 Olympic Gold without me. I could just have easily done that vault on one like like Kerri Strug....psshh, bitch please, any level 9 gymnast can handle that. Haha
Somewhere around 1990 my sister and I got involved in community theatre. You know what came next? Star Search! It was coming to Cleveland! OMG, we TOTALLY had to go. We were obsessed with the show and of course we would win and a sister type act....hello, we are adorable and loveable, and well, we are awesome! But no, do you know what we had to do that day? Write a paper. Ya, we had homework, and having an English teacher for a mother means no skipping homework to go become famous. I bet Britney's mom didn't make her do her homework (ok, she turned out to be a trainwreck, but we would have been solid and stable with good morals and only slighty slutty to sell our records). We are talking like Hillary and Halie Duff, but WAY better.
By the time I got to college I was sure of my passion. Pharmacy. I loved it. I studied it for 3 years in college and was sure I wanted nothing more than to continue on to the 8 year Doctorine program at OSU. By year 4 I had fallen in love and decided I did not want to spend the first few years of married life in school so on the brink of assuming I would get engaged I changed my major and got a degree in Sociology. Well, we all know how well that whole marriage thing worked out for me (See: "What a day, what a day, what a silly little day").
So, what do I wanna be when I grow up. Wait, Holy Shit! I am gonna be 30 this year!?!?!?!? It's not when I grow up....I am grown up! Oh my goodness, when the #$%#$#$ did that happen!!!! Bus driver---Hell no! Olympic gymnast---HAHAHAHAHAHA! Famous musician/dancer/actress/total kick butt "triple threat"---still in my dreams Pharmacist---way too late for that! WHAT DO I DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't wanna grow up, I wanna be a Toys R Us kid!
