    I figured this for a good thread. You know those really nice people who tell you that you can be anyhting you want if you try hard enough, but you get old enough that you call BS on some things cause you know it's just not possible? Well share those things! Real world type things, fantasies, etc. I'll start it off!

    I would love to be a cyborg mercenary (Yeah, well, I like the idea) or, preferably, a Sky Pirate Captain! Among other things, I read a lot of fantasy and sci-fi so I'll throw the blame of my unattainable dreams there.

    Ooh, perfect answer here: A lottery winner. Even though that'd probably lead to some major problems, I think it'd be nice.

    Well when I was younger I wanted to be a successful pro-wrestler, but the more I learned about the business I realized that I would be doing it for the wrong reasons and would not make it far at all.

    Trained for 4 years, came to the same conclusions, plus I just destroyed my body from it, didn't want to be that guy in a wheelchair at 45, I know what you mena, loved parts of it, but not worth it long run.

    A boy. I've never really been fond of the fact that I was born a girl. It just never felt right although I've come to accept it over the past few years.

    I know there is surgery and stuff but I don't want that. I wish I was born a natural boy. I don't want to get a sex change and have to deal with all the harassment and dirty looks that come with it. Just not worth the effort or money.

    Eh there's a couple things I wish I could be.
    An astronaut, I've always wanted to be one. I love astronomy a ton. It's just so amazing.
    A psychic, I also enjoy the idea of paranormal and would like to be able to converse with spirits.
    A singer, it'd be cool to have some musical talent and be able to sing. But alas, I cannot sing for the life of me :<
    A millionaire or at least rich to where I don't freak out at bills all the time and can help everyone in my family.

    An ice hockey player! I suppose a more unrealistic idea would be a pirate.

    Some things I've always wanted to be are kinda similar to what you guys said.

    Musician - I've always wanted to play piano or violin but I never learned. Being able to play in a huge orchestra would be amazing!
    Veterinarian - Always wanted to be one but the classes are just crazy long and too expensive. I'd love to work with animals daily :\
    Millionaire - Like Banshee said, bills >.< It would be nice to pay everything and not worry about money at all. I wouldn't spend my money as if I'ma millionaire, but knowing it's there I wouldn't have to work for a bit and relax!

    Yes!! That's also another one! I saw the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie when I was in 6th grade and wanted to be a pirate so badly. I even have a boat picked out that I found online. You can find it here.

    I'd love to have any kind of magical powers, but sadly, those only exist in games/films/books/etc. I think it'd be awesome to be some sort of arcane superhero, haha.

    As for something more realistic, I'd like to be able to go into the game development industry, preferably somewhere that does concept art- designs for characters and environments/designs for games (rather than the coding and whatnot). I have no idea how I'd get into that field, though, and my art is nowhere near good enough for something like that.

    Another thing I'd love is just to be a normal guy, but due to several things beyond my control, that will never happen.
