What I wanted to be

Ok this is my first post here so I hope I am doing this right.

I wanted to be a cop when I was a kid (having a gun appealed to me).

During my eighth grade year I then decided that I would use my voice and go into sports broadcasting. That was my goal throughout high school and I did broadcast for my high school's radio station for two years.

Now I am doing something completely different (politics). However, journalism will always appeal to me.

It is interesting to look back on what you were going to be and how that manifested into a indentity that people knew you by. It struck me yesterday at the mall when I saw my old co-worker at the radio station and he asked if I was still pursuing a career in broadcast journalism (I had not seen him in years). We are friends on facebook and he could have seen that career goals had changed but he still asked me that....
