What I Wanna Be When I Grow Up

I wanted to be president or a porn star. I got the tools and the skill set.
This will be my porn song

First a vet, then not long after that, a singer.

 

A surgeon (i loved to draw and that takes patience with the hands) when I was in grade school. As I got older, I wanted to become an officer in the Army or go into Law Enforcement. Not a ton of money to be made in either profession, but it's where I believed I fit in. Sometimes that's more important.

One of my uncles was a MP in the air force, then came out and became a state trooper down in Roanoke. I remember him sleeping over between the transition and having him show me his Beretta and being in love with his profession. After that, law enforcement seemed like a cool career.

 

Did he have to get sprayed by that hardcore pepper spray and do that whole subdue the enemy drill?

no idea

i was told not to inquire about someone's military background, unless they came forth and told you. One of my older uncles was 'supposedly' a sniper in Vietnam (because no one says they shoveled shit on base, during a war), and no matter how hard I wanted to ask him a question, my family told me not too because of the psychological trauma. They said it was okay if he initiated that kind of talking tho. So, I just got into the habit of not poking around like that.

ROTC was different tho. You asked your instructors anything under the sun, because they been through it all, and are in the profession of passing on what they know to you, to make you better.

I remember one of the cadets asking our First Sergeant if he killed people back in 'Nam. He just gave him a weird look like 'what the fuck do you think i did'

 

Makes sense. I wouldn't ask somebody something as personal as killing somebody. A kid would do that shit. I thought it was alright to ask about basic training though since so many people talk about their basic training experience and it isn't giving any info about what their actual job will be.

 

depends on their experience

we had a few guys that went through army basic during the summer, and weren't exactly thrilled the following fall semester

 

that is sooo true. happiness to will trump money anytime

 

yeah it is what it is. sent you a letter tho

 

When I was a kid I wanted to be:

- in politics

- Marine biologist

- Egyptologist

- Archaeologist (I do have my bachelor's in Anthropology)

- in movies.

As of today, I've worked in Anthropology (even going on a dig) and I've acted and produced movies.

Unfortunately, I'm not making any money doing either at the moment. :smt042

I'm hoping to change that soon enough, though.

 

I don't wanna grow up
I'm a Toys'R'Us kid,
There's a million toys
At Toys'R'Us
That I can play with.
From bikes to trains to video games
It's the biggest toy store there is (Gee Whiz)
I don't wanna grow up
Because maybe if I did
I couldn't be a Toys R Us kid

 

never dreamed of working in Toys R Us

sorry boss



that used to be the spot tho...remember when all u had was K-B or them? Toy R us always had the bigger spot and aisles of games...ridiculous

 

Naw mane, I don't want to grow up, don't even want a job, I just want to be a kid forever...

I forgot about K-B, You brought me back.

 

I wanted to be:

- archeologist or anthropologist (and still do!!!)
- a social worker in a ghetto (LMAO @ that. I was a fool)

 

KB Toys was the shit man. Them prices were ridiculous. Mad ass cheap. I'd be buying them wrestling action figures and props n' shit. I was stocked up on that shit.

 

was informed this morning by my daughter that she will be a princess...then she asked me what i want to be when i grow up...!!!!
