We all had dreams of doing something really cool when we were kids, but not many get to enjoy that childhood dream. However, we still can enjoy the job that we have (or not). So share what you dreamed of and where you ended up!

I always wanted to be a teacher. We had an actual blackboard in our basement from when an old school was torn down, and a couple of desks. I played 'school' all the time with my friends. I had many excellent teachers over the years, I suppose that's what inspired me. I've been teaching since 1998. I currently teach reading and math to Title 1 students in grades K-8.

I always loved museums and when I found out that people actually worked in them, that's all I wanted to do! I started my first museum job in college and today I run a museum. It's my dream job!

I wanted to be an astronaut. I loved the stars and the possibilities of exploring areas nobody had been in before. I ended up a middle and high school science teacher and oddly, astronomy is one of the few courses I haven't taught.

I wanted to be an animator. It was my biggest dream but for some reason it always seemed impossibe. It was so important, that I didn't share it with ANYONE untill I was around 19yo. Three years later my life was falling appart on every level, so I didn't have much more to loose. I started over in a diffrent city, went to film school and now work as an animator in an independent studio. And I really love it!

At about five years old I got my first dinosaur book and saw a picture in it of some guys digging out bones larger than themselves. Ever since I wanted to become a paleontologist. I'm a physician now working in internal medicine, and even though I'm still somewhat of a dinosaur nerd I don't regret how my life turned out

As a kid I grew up in a difficult family situation so I never got my head free for something like that. But now I'm a pedagogue helping kids like me. But my innerchild would have become a Paleantologist. 😉

When I was six, my schoolteacher asked the class, what we wanted to become.
Most said "teacher" but I told her I wanted to become a mother. "Silly girl", she said, "you will become one anyway!" And I thought: " How can she know that?"
Luckily I can say, my wish was granted and the job I worked in was very interesting too.

Whelp i went through a couple job phases as a kid...
First one was to be a ballerina, turned out i sprained my ankle doing lessons and discontinued.

Next was to be a scientist. I like the idea of mixing up liquids and making them explode. Turns out my cousin explained there was chemistry, and biology, and table of elements and stuff like that. later i discontinued, but it inspired my little sister to be one
Next was marine biologist. I had no idea what they did other than dive in the ocean and see animals. I think I wanted to be a ocean photographer, but i was really young and got mixed up. My dad told me the real job, and I thought it was boring
My last phase was to be an author/artist. This lasted from age 8 and beyond. My last phase.
Currently I am still in school, but I will be an author soon!
