Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>This is one of those fun/game threads. </p>

<p>Here is how it works: You start out saying "When I was 5 I wanted to be..." then you gradually work your way up to the present.</p>

<p>Example:


</p>

2

<p>I knew what I wanted to do with my life since I was 5. It is just that the criteria just got more specific over the years. At 5, I knew I wanted to be a scientist. At 11, when I started programming C++, that narrowed down into Computer Programmer/Scientist. Then now, I want to be in the research field regarding computers like robotics, quantum computing, algorithms, computer architectures and ect.</p>

<p>When I was 5 I probably wanted to be an actress. When I was 8 I wanted to be a cashier. When I was 9 I wanted to be a lawyer. When I was 10 I wanted to be Donald Trump’s apprentice. When I was 11 I wanted to be a model/actress. When I was 13 I wanted to be a pyschologist. When I was 14 I wanted to be a nutritionist. When I was 15 I wanted to be a nurse. Now I want to be a pharmacist.</p>

<p>When I was 5 I didn’t want to be anything. I never thought about growing up. In my mind that didn’t exist. </p>

<p>When I was in middle school I wanted to be in computer science. Later in middle school I also wanted to be a CEO.</p>

<p>When I was a freshman in high school I wanted to be just about everything. Now idk what I want to be :)</p>

5

<p>3rd: Work at an animal shelter…because I didn’t know that it was a volunteer position
Later in 3rd: FBI agent (lolwut)
4th: Comic book artist (I had my own series and everything)
7th: Author or Journalist
9th: Research psychologist
Now: I have no idea, and even worse, I can’t remember what my dreams were when I was 5</p>

<p>When I was 5, I think I wanted to be Italian… </p>

<p>and when I was 12, I still wanted to be Italian, but I also wanted to be an engineer. Or maybe a lawyer. </p>

<p>When I was 15, I discovered the beauty of biology. Then I wanted to be a research scientist. </p>

<p>When I was 17, I had an internship at a lab and learned how much I hate bench work, so I decided to be a doctor instead. I still love biology though. </p>

<p>I don’t want to be Italian anymore…</p>

<p>When I was five I went around saying I was 100 years old if anyone asked me my age.</p>

<p>I try to be more honest with my age now.</p>
