you remember what you wanted to be when you grew up when you were a child?
Unless you actually followed through and did it — which is likely not most of us — you probably haven’t thought about it in a long time.
But Canadian blogger Eric Alper had people recalling those childhood dream ambitions when he tweeted last week, “Congratulations! The job you wanted to have when you were five is now yours. What do you now do for a living?” People started sharing their delightful answers, some of which included:
- Hurray, I am a policeman clown!
- I’m a Broadway star who moonlights as a palaeontologist during her off season.
- I am now an astronaut who is also the president.
Whatever Jeff Goldblum is in Jurassic Park. - Jedi Knight
- Assign names to lipsticks at the lipstick factory. Still want that gig.
- Astronaut Rock Star. I play all over Mars. I’m serious.
- Ice Cream Lady. Drive the truck, ring the bell AND free ice cream.
What was your DREAM JOB?
