what do you wanna be when you grow up? - Page 2

The only thing I wanted to be when I was younger was an animator. Then I got into music and wanted to be a musician... but my ideal realistic job now would be a teacher.

When I was really young I wanted to be a garbageman. Broke my mother's heart. Then for a day I wanted to be a toll booth operator because I thought they got to keep the money.

I grew up in Brooklyn. What the fuck do you want from me.

As of 30 seconds ago I want to be a hermit crab that lives in various attractive celebrity vaginas.

reclusive author

alteredcourse · 01.21.2010, 10:45 PM

before junior high, I made a pro/con list for marine biologist, novelist, and surgeon.

To tell you the truth...for the past few years at the back of my head I've always kept an interest in psych nursing. Not to take care of people one on one so much as being involved with mental trauma.

Lux Interior. I saw the Cramps in my 30s and was blown away to see a geezer who could climb around on shit and rock the chaos like that. I said outloud, "That's what I want to be when I grow up!"

SuperCreep · 01.21.2010, 11:02 PM

lawyer -> film director -> musician -> teacher (finally settled on that one)

knox · 01.22.2010, 10:12 AM

I wanted to be a mutant that could look like any person, not real people, but invented people.

I wanted to be a school teacher and work with children at some point.

I wanted to be that person that squeezes blackheads for a living.

_slavo_ · 01.22.2010, 10:30 AM
