what were your childhoood aspirations?

i would really like to earn a living as a professoinal skateboarder, but thats not going to happen.

i like to run, but i wont be able to earn a living off of that.

anything involving art would be cool, but then i would have to beg on the streets.

ive flown little cessnas in the past (as it i was the pilot and my instructor was the copilot.) but if i crashed it i would not want all of those people to be dead because of me.

i like to act and do that on and off. that would be okay. and not like celebrity acting, but theater.

life seems so boring as an adult.

but then again you get to drink smoke and make out w/o having to look behind you and make sure no parents are looking. hahah.

-blustery saturday.

Professional skateboarders are just hardcore dropouts.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 3:55pm

I wanted to be a soccerplaying firefighting superhero martial artists lover.

olie! on Mar 15 '08 at 3:56pm

I wanted to be a shark when I was little.

olie! on Mar 15 '08 at 3:56pm

And I was really upset when my parents told me I couldn't be.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 3:57pm

professional skateboarders are getting paid to play.

Chipmnk on Mar 15 '08 at 3:57pm

I wanted to become an archaeologist but then I saw Jurassic Park.

deathcabfortom on Mar 15 '08 at 3:57pm

Pokemon master

canceromega on Mar 15 '08 at 3:57pm

From the ages of 2 - 5 I wanted to be a dinosaur, then I wanted to be a concert pianist, then I wanted to be a concert bassoonist, then I wanted to be a politician, and now I don't know what I want to do.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 3:58pm

Now I want to join the mercant marine.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 3:58pm

when i was 4 i wanted to be jesus and my aprents had to explain to me that i was not christ.

worst moment ever.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 3:58pm

TOM hahaha i havent seen you in forever!

Cactus Pirate Jr. on Mar 15 '08 at 3:58pm

When I was 5 I aspired to be a circus clown.

SheepMan22 on Mar 15 '08 at 3:59pm

That was adorable.

sonmi on Mar 15 '08 at 3:59pm

haha alvin! i wanted to be a paleontologist after seeing jurassic park, a computer animator, and a teacher. i remember specifically saying when i was in 3rd grade that i didn't intend to become an artist, because it was a financially stagnant career choice.

DaniellesGarden on Mar 15 '08 at 3:59pm

I found something i wrote in elementary school that said I wanted to be an artist, so that kind of worked out.

Chipmnk on Mar 15 '08 at 4:00pm

I also wanted to be an artist. We did self-portraits in elementary school and I made myself look like a black kid.

But I want to be a writer and that's an artistic medium I excel in, even though it's pretty easy to call yourself a writer. Just carry a notebook around with you and seem very contemplative about things.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:01pm

yeah id love to have art be a hobby. i should post some stuff ive drawn.

DaniellesGarden on Mar 15 '08 at 4:01pm

same with artists chip.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 4:02pm

What kind of a writer, Alvin?

kayceislost on Mar 15 '08 at 4:05pm

in elementary school i wanted to be a an artist/scientist (both at the same time), then when i was doing the school newspapers comic strips i wanted to do that when i grew up. i also wanted to be a writer, and got a few things published as a kid... then in middle/high school i wanted to either be a designer, a musician (then later a concert bassoonist), a geneticist, or again, a writer. Then I decided I wanted to do everything. Or anything dealing with expressing and communicating ideas and thoughts with others creatively...

Then I picked graphic design as a major.

At one point I also wanted to be a cook, and a bird.

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:05pm

I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was little. I don't like animals that much anymore.

Chipmnk on Mar 15 '08 at 4:06pm

Chris: No idea really. I've dabbled in poetry and short stories (even though I have yet to actually complete any of the stories I start). I just know that it feels good to write and it's one of the few things I can do well.

Other things I can do well is make fried rice and English muffin pizzas.

But I'm pretty happy being the mediocre nineteen (almost twenty) year old college student that I am.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:06pm

hhahaha

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:06pm

oh yeah, I did the writer thing as well. I wrote Dr. Stootle's Adventures In Space. I illustrated that bitch as well.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:08pm

i wanted to be an explorer when i was 7ish and then realized everything had been explored.

SheepMan22 on Mar 15 '08 at 4:08pm

ha malcolm i am going to school to be a veterinarian its so much fun

kayceislost on Mar 15 '08 at 4:08pm

crap i forgot to add my fascination with film!

also im margo fucking tenenbaum. i should have been married twice by now and have a finger cut off... and i should start smoking.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:10pm

freehand skizzles

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:10pm

Kayce and I are the samer person...almost.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 4:11pm

Cool beans, Alvin.

You may know this already, but I'm a writer, too!

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:12pm

Is't everyone a writer?

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:12pm

that spelling error was very unfortunate.

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:12pm

for what jackanapes?

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:12pm

Have you ever seen a fortunate spelling error?

Chipmnk on Mar 15 '08 at 4:13pm

Yus.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 4:13pm

What, for what, Snaps?

kayceislost on Mar 15 '08 at 4:14pm

yes there is many fortunate spelling errors.

maybe not a writer, but i loved analyzing things and writing about them. so that. whatever that is.

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:15pm

NAME ONE!

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:15pm

sorry i meant what do you write for? like tv, books, comedy, poetry etc

5napple on Mar 15 '08 at 4:16pm

why did i phrase that so confusing like?

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 4:16pm

Yes, in a way, Malcolm, everyone is.

Which is part of "the problem" of wanting "to be a writer." Whatever that means.

How do you know you're really good?

Besides, unless I'm good enough to stand the test of time (read, "centuries"), I'll be disappointed--not that if I'm not "famous" I'll be disappointed. It's only about wanting to be good and knowing when/if I'm good.

Malcolm Man on Mar 15 '08 at 4:18pm

Exaclty Chris.

Jackanapes mk.II on Mar 15 '08 at 4:21pm

I write fiction and poetry, Snaps. Both long and short fiction, and both lyric and narrative poetry.

In fact, I'm "working" on an epic.

edean on Mar 15 '08 at 4:37pm

i wanna be this guy

edean on Mar 15 '08 at 4:39pm

or this guy

edean on Mar 15 '08 at 4:40pm

dammit,

squeegebeckenheim on Mar 15 '08 at 4:42pm

WTF?! ^

Pizazz on Mar 15 '08 at 4:46pm

I have wanted to be an artist since I was one. I was already drawing huge dragons 'n' shiz when I was 4.

blossompossum on Mar 15 '08 at 4:47pm

When I was 11, my only role model other than my parents was Ernesto Che Guevara. He left quite a mark on my young impressionable mind, even if I didn't fully understand Communism at the time. It's more of his personality that I liked, rather than his political standing.
