Remembering....

....when we were all small kids...
What was it that you wanted when you grew up, or to become and too do in this lifetime?

Did you want to become a fire wo/man, or how about a police wo/man, or perhaps a racecar driver?

These are just examples, but think back when you were a small kid, between the ages of 5-12yrs old.

What had stopped you from being a musician?...I have a soft spot for musicians.
teddybear wave robrt

so how come you didn't pursue being a musician who write's songs and music?

From reading your blogs, you are such a good writer!!!

By the time I had reached the age of 12, I wanted 13 children, but I ended up with just 5crying crying crying

how many kids did you want and do you have any?
wave wave Becca

I wanted you to tell me what you wanted to become when you grew up.

you know, like a Doctor, Lawyer, Teacher, stuff like that.
I wanted to be a Harlem Globetrotter! Crazy notion for a Hispanic kid, huh? My friends laughed at me but I didn't care because i liked comedy and basketball. Goose Tatum was the lead funny guy in that troupe and I idolized his basketball skills.

I used to whistle "Sweet Georgia Brown" and I would practice and practice and practice. I wasn't any good and all that ended about age 13 or 14!
Nah! No kids and apparently can't have any.sad
Dear Sugar , Well when I was younger ( pre teen ) I wanted to search for dinosaur bones . Then when I got into high school I discovered cars ( well girls too ) and wanted to be a race car driver as well as a designer . I wanted to be the next Collin Chapman . I did follow that dream for a while but life and reality did have other plans . It did start me on my way towards being an engineer . I really didn't do any serious paleontology, but I did keep up with all the changing trends . There where other things I did or wanted to do and most I dabbled in at one time or another . All in all it was a fun and exciting ride . It still is . . . . . . . .Your Black Knight always. . cool

Let's see....I wanted to be a ballerina, figure skater, nurse, kindergarten teacher, paramedic, flight attendent. As I got older I knew I would be either in the medical field or working with children. But I'm due for a change & might consider going back to school. grin dancing yay
zweet, there was time that I wanted to be a flight attendant, toohug

OK sugarbum wave when I was 5-12 y.o. I wanted to be...roll eyes an archeologist, an army officer, a flight attendant, a dancer. What about you?dunno
Hey lachiabonita...I still want to....for some reason. I think because I got the travel bug in me. I want to travel!! grin grin
I wanted to be a journalist. I want to travel to places and gather the news. But went to health care instead, hehehe... grin bouquet
Lachi, Zweet wave teddybear hug
Hi shay wave hug
I'm in healthcare too! But not in a way I imagined or expected. But I help seniors & some adults. grin heart wings
YAY! yay Its fulfilling, right Zweet to work in healthcare esp when you can see how much they (residents) appreciated the care we give. It gets tiring too sometimes but need to continue.

I love traveling too. yay
Shay...its true! yay
I always work evenings so I get to put them to bed. When I first started a lady resident living there told me...."always say good night when you got to bed....it means a lot to me but maybe not to you or others" I said good night to her, plus I gave her a big hug & she thanked me.....the next day she passed on.

So every night I say good night because I don't know if that's will be their last. So I get to say good night plus give hugs...& sometimes a kiss. I even get requests for residents for me to put them to bed. grin yay grin heart wings
That's very sweet of you Zweet. teddybear

I love good nights too but not goodbyes,... blues
zweet, good luckthumbs up My obstacles being a flight attendant now is I am wearing glassesblues and can't even swimcrying

shaywave hug bouquet Someone was telling me to be a nurse, shay. But I am afraid the patient will be afraid of me if I werelaugh blushing
Thanks shay heart wings I like good nights too. But there are no goodbyes...just until we meet again, or see you soon, or until next time. grin yay
Thanks lachia! My obstacle was what my mom told me when I was younger. I didn't pursue it because of what my mom kept telling me. I wonder if I can or not? Plus I can't swim either. crying sad flower
Oh sorry to hear that, zweetcomfort hug Well, if you really want it, why don't you give it a try?bouquet teddybear
Lach, I did not dreamed of being in this field, it just happen. grin In a way, my relatives influenced me pursuing health care. Did not like it the first time, but as I practice I learned to love the job. bouquet
Lachia. I've been thinking about it lately...maybe I should try & see if I'm qualified to do so or able to. Her words hurt me & has made me doubt doing so. But perhaps I should dimiss what she said & go for it & see what happens. Thanks! hug heart wings

Did you ever consider adopting, or becoming a foster parent?

There's so many kids in the world that need parents.

@ sugarbum!

Sorry to answer so late. I work at night and I just got home!

I played basketball in high school but at 5' 8" college was not even a dream. I was too short and too slow.

Intramural basketball though (at Pasadena City College, Pasadena, CA) 5 of us "shorty" guys grouped together and we beat everyone of the teams in the intramural class. We even beat this team of tall guys. All over 6' tall!!!
teddybear My Knight

I too wanted to search and dig for dinosaur bones as well.
Wasn't much into cars though, but I did like trucks and I could name the type of truck by the grill in front.

I love trains, and even had a train set when I was younger.
Would you have done something else if you weren't allowed to drive trains anymore?
