I didn't know what I had to do just to have that construction tractor with the arm that could dig..I used to see construction workers in those things..so I guess that's what I wanted to do..

I also wanted to be a hang glider man..cuz when my mom would take us to the beach..people would hang glide off the mountain..I was like hell yeah..

Ain't gonna lie... as a lil kid (aged 8-11) I had that fantasy job & car in mind, thought that would slowly take shape as I got older....but I had to snap outta that thought pattern real quick as soon as I got my first job at age 14 selling Christmas type Lord of the Ring figurines & bootlegged fake Avirex winter coats.....(weird product combo but thats what the chinaman supplied me at the time)....Fo me I used to want to become a Pilot....get my on in the cockpit. I still do....but lets just leave it at that

p.s: Your thread just reminded me of Cams lyrics from 'Crime Pays' about little kids that aspire to have crazy stuff talking that goo goo gaa gaa due to naivety

BIRD CAGE! That's what it's gonna be
3rd grade Mr. Massey asked us what we wanna be
Jeff said a lifeguard, Bobby said a firefighter
Jeff gonna have a Porsche and Bobby said he'll have a Spyder
David said police, Wanda said she wished to dance
They gonna get married, have a big crib in France
I started actin up, wait a minute back it up
This ain't math class but this shyt ain't adding up
Then Mr. Massey looked and that's when the teacher asked
"You got a problem Cam" Yeah, I should teach this class
Maybe I'll reach they ass,
Tell em they don't need to have degrees in math
Know your credit, debit, plus receipts for cash
A few geeks had laughed, I told the dude stop your wishin
You won't have a pot to piss in with that damn job you gettin
Call Cam a gift, they wasn't understanding this
Damn I'm rich, a drug dealer turned out philanthropist

love that intro...so hot

when I was a little kid, I always told EVERYONE I wanted to be a garbage man. I dunno why even I think I just thought the truck was cool.

everyone thought it was funny, but actually that is a very attainable goal. little did I know then, that if I took that career path, I'd probably be banking some serious bread working for the city.

oh well.


in high school, EVERYONE wanted to work at foot locker. the cats that worked there always wore their uniform to school if they had to work after school. i thought it would be a clean way to come upon some gym shoes.

never worked, there, ended up working at a grocery store bagging groceries instead.

my grandfather was the first of the family to get higher education, see the world, was published, all sorts of shyt

he said he never accomplished his goal he set when he was 7 to be a trashman just because it looked fun jumping on and off the truck

i wanted to be a monk when i was 8. i thought you just got to sit there and think until someone came to you with problems and then you used kung fu to solve them

 

[Tic Tac T O]

I wanted to get bit by a radioactive spider and fight evil doers

Pro Wrestler

Cab Driver
