What did you aspire to do when you were 15?

[JustAnAverageGuy]

When I was 15? I wanted to drive.

Now that I do it, I find it highly overrated.

Job wise? Probably some IT tech guy.

Anyway, I was just making sure it wasn't normal for people to want to be a help desk tech.(Yes, I heard someone say that)

15?

I couldn't decide between professional poet, doctor, or a jesuit priest.

I went to college for writing, but I got burned out on poetry by sophomore year, and eventually landed in IT after graduation. (though I did have a brief marketing job writing copy).

yeah me tooo

I was too busy trying not to get arrested/in serious sh!t for hacking to think about my future at 15. Eight years later and I'm planning on going to med school.

 

[herkulease]

Lets see as a child I wanted to be a garbage man. cuz they got to ride in those big trucks.

later I got Dentistry drilled into my head. I'm thinking from 6th grade and till 12th grade. My family is mainly dentist. there's 9 of them.

Which wasn't a problem but now that I"m in college I've lost interest in science so I'm doing Law. I might go back and give dentistry a shot. I know I can do it, just right now Law is grabbing my interest. But I dunno, I'm not sure i want to go back to school when i'm done with law school.

Heh, I remember thinking I was so 1337 at age 15. Back then I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but now I'm pretty sure I want to go into the medicine, possibly as a medical researcher. My senior year of high school right now, so a bit more school left...

Sucks to have something drilled into your whole life, doesn't it.

Yeah... Mom wanted me to be a doctor, and I think that Dad wanted me to be an architect or something. Neither of them liked computers all that much when I was a kid... Mom didn't understand them, and my Dad just hated them from his dealings at work. But, hey, they're proud of me now!

That reminds me of someone, very much like you, around your age.

Intelligent, beautiful, blonde, and WAY taller than me.

"What did you aspire to do when you were 15?"

drugs...well, not really, but I felt I just HAD to stand out as the guy with the bad jokes that only I think are funny...

But in all seriousness, when I was 15 I wanted to be in the Army...that's when I was in my "I'm invincible" stage and felt I could go clear up the world's problems with an M16 and a grenade or two...

Yeah, then I had my appendix out and realized that getting cut with a knife hurt, so my aspirations of being a fearless soldier kind of dissappeared.
