Ok... here is...dont laugh -_-

I always wanted to be the hero who saved the girl I had a crush on from bad guys ( evil ninjas etc) in some spectacular way and live happily ever after.



Today, I am more mature and realize that it might not come down to ninjas...probably some robber or thug. LOL.

My youngest sister, when she was about 4, she said "I'm going to become Finland's president." :D She held that thought for several years. ;D

I wanted to be the greatest kung fu woman on earth. I loved jackie chan and thought he was the bestest of the best.
Then I wanted to be a farmer from reading too many little house on the prairie books

I never wanted to be older... Didn't really dream of being a mother or a wife either. lol. Nothing's changed there.

I used to wanna be a doctor for a while, and then around 10 didn't really think of that anymore cuz I wanted to be a computer programmer or make video games. I duno what I was thinking. It might have been cuz of my sis majoring in Computer Science and I used to want to be a mini her. Then when I was like 12, I wanted to be police officer, not sure why. Then in high school I wanted to be pediatrician for a while, and then a web designer or graphic designer.

And now I'm planning on becoming a Child Psychologist and getting my teaching credentials alhamdulillah.

It seems several of us had ambitions of conquering the world. The big disappointment comes when you discover you have to conquer yourself first. I am just now making a small dent in that.

Wording problem in the name of thread. I want ( considering I'm the youngest I can be to dream of jobs) a lawyer like Muezzin.
 
I was just here sitting and thinking over old memories.

It seems that the things I feared or hated became the things I actually did.

I had a morbid fear of heights, yet I became a pilot and Mountain climbing was my favorite hobby.

I feared reptiles and became a herpetologist and eventually handled snakes of nearly every species and had pythons, cobras, rattlesnakes for pets.

I feared public speaking, yet much of my adult life was spent giving public lectures.

I hated school, but ended up being a life time student. The past 3 years being the only time I remember not taking any university courses.

Odd what Allaah(swt) has planned, yet I found Allaah(swt) truly is the best of planners.
 
I was born poor and I always thought I was gonna be poor so when i was a child i really had no dreams of what I wanted to be. As I grew older I was really interested in Islamic history and classic Arabic.
