I wanted to be an actor but found that unrealistic. Then I wanted to be some sort of an engineer but I didn't want to take all the math. Then I wanted to be an actor again or involved in film somehow but found that unrealistic. Then I wanted to be a cop and studied law enforcement my first year of college. Then I went to trade school to get a degree in video/TV production, then community college where I took many acting and communications courses, then a university where I took so many theatre courses I could've put in one more semester and gotten a degree in Theatre Performance but decided to end early with a BGS instead. Then for two years straight my sole source of income was performing improv comedy professionally. The first year was tough, the second was lucrative. So, I got to live my dream of being an actor, though I still found it unrealistic. Then I wanted to work in marketing so I got an MBA in Marketing. Now I just need to find a job in that field. In the meantime, I'll continue acting, doing comedy, variety performances, teaching stage combat, et. al.
But what I really want to be when I grow up is older.
