Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Owner of An Island Life and Family Review Network. Wife, mother, and flight attendant . . . living a blessed life in Hawaii. |
A Medical Examiner like Quincy.
I always wanted to be a teacher and mother. I did both of those
i always wanted to be a lawyer. and i’m fortunate enough to be doing exactly that.
All kinds of things, but the one that stuck the longest was a Marine Biologist.
I have always wanted to be a mommy! I am now a mommy of 3 and I am fortunate enough to be a stay at home — homeschool mom.
tfs
Teacher, Vet, Private Investigator and Reporter.
I was a teacher for awhile and I guess writing a blog is somewhat fulfilling my Reporter dream. That leaves the other two. Oh well, 2/4 isn’t bad.
a doctor then I learned I can’t stand the sight of blood
I wanted to be a vet or a writer
When I was a young child, I wanted to be an astronaut but my brother-in-law told me I wasn’t smart enough.
I bet I could have!!!
My next career choice was to have a Wildlife Conservation Reserve in Africa.
I know I would have been good at that!
Finally in high school I wanted to be an Anthropologist.
What I did succeed at is being a fun loving over protective full time mom and now I’m a blogging grandmother!!
Is it completely sad that I really don’t think I wanted to be anything? I wanted to marry John Taylor of Duran Duran. Does that count?
I always wanted to be a teacher since I was a little girl. Then I worked in an elementary school during 11th and 12th grade. I decided to go into accounting.
There was a time when I wanted to be a pilot but I guess I didn’t consider my fear of heights. Ha ha!
when i was younger, it was an architect. then for a while it was a school teacher. then a psychiatrist. and when i graduated high school, i would have loved to have enough talent to be a graphic artist.
what did i end up being? a wife and mother. best job around =)
a teacher
I really wanted to be a teacher. I think this had to do with the wonderful teachers I had in elementary school – I wanted to be just like them!
I wanted to be a teacher or a lawyer. My favorite game was to play school. I used to steal all the junk mail from my apartment building and make my friends do ‘homework’ lol
A mommy, nurse or teacher. I think I’ve managed to combine all three in one. What’s that song? The best of both (three) worlds?
an ARTIST and a MOMMY
A veterinarian!

When I was a kid, I had absolutely no clue what I wanted to be. And really, I’m still not completely sure, even now.
Decisive, aren’t I…
I just emailed you…is there anyway to delete linky #17?
thanks!
A Broadcast Journalist.
Pretty much everything, but the first one that I remember wanting to be is a veterinarian.
I always wanted to be a mommy. I’m sure there were others but that’s the only one I remember.
Business Man which I still wanna be

A teacher . . . and at when I turned 40, I went back to school to become one . . . and now I am!!! Never too late!

A pilot!
I wanted to be a teacher
I wanted to be a lawyer… lol Well first a superhero..
I wanted to be a teacher. I would pretend to be a teacher to my younger cousins and when my mom had a daycare (I was about 16) I would teach the children. But, I’m now in my 30′s and nowhere near becoming a teacher.
I wanted to be an archeologist. So, I sell Clinique. LOL…..makes alot of sense. I think I fell off the plan at some point.
Qunicy. lol. (forensic scientist) OR an archeologist.
Have a great day over there today!
I wanted to be a writer.
I wanted to be a lawyer. I became a legal secretary – close, but no dice.
I always wanted to be an author, as I loved to write. I’m not an author, but I’m happy to be a special ed teacher, a job where I can at least use my creativity.
One of those “meddling kids” on Scooby Doo.
I went through phases! I wanted to be a waitress…a hairdresser…a garbage truck driver…
But teacher is the one that stuck!
When I was really young I wanted to be a teacher!
An actress!
I phased in and out of things, but a doctor was definitely on of the more recurring ones!
I don’t think I really knew. There was too much family drama going on all the time to even think about it.
I wanted to be a lawyer (procescutor) and then I changed my mind to a psychologist. Hey, at least I’m actually one of the two
I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. There were bouts of pediatric nurse, and scientist, but I definitely always wanted to be a wife & mother.
I wanted to be a lawyer for a while then I wanted to be a teacher… I didn’t become either – But I love that I am a Nurse so I guess I made the right decision.
Madonna.
LOL!
I wanted to be a mom! There were times when I wanted to be a belly dancer or brain surgeon, but always a mom, and to a large family.
To me, large was 5, now that seems so small, lol.
Everything LOL. I went from doctor, to vet, to actress. I was going to do it all.
I always wanted to be a teacher. Then in highschool I wanted to be a social worker. My parents didn’t like social worker, so it was not allowed.
