What did you want to be when you were a child?

by
Time to have weekend fun. These days I reflected on how a person can move away from what he originally wanted to be or how he started. When you were a kid, what was your dream career? Me first: I wanted to be an FBI agent 😀🤣 (I probably watched more crime series than was healthy)

What a coincidence! I recently reflected on my 4+ year journey of creating an animation tool. As a kid, I loved anime and drawing, so I made this tool for myself and I want to share it with you for free.

@busmark_w_nika Thanks! The tool is called Trangram. I made it available online 5 months ago at www.trangram.com. Since then, I’ve been improving it with a lot of updates, and I’m planning to officially launch it on PH early next month. I’m new here and still have a lot to learn about launching a free product.

@busmark_w_nika In practice, within the team, I oversee the gamification design aspects, while the fitness components are managed by those with greater expertise :D

I wanted to be an astronaut.
Howard
@busmark_w_nika No, at that time, I thought it was fun to sit on the rotating machine used for training astronauts.😁
Howard
@busmark_w_nika Yes, as I grew up, I gave up on that.

I used to tell my mom: "I want to be the guy that delivers packages in the brown truck!" So yes, I wanted to be a UPS delivery man 🤣

I have always aspired to become a software developer since the day I first encountered a computer. I am glad I persisted with this ambition. As for now, I have become deeply fascinated by the life of a serial entrepreneur.

I wanted to be... a mage/technician with great who creates different hi-tech stuff from magnetic fields to bionic hands and drugs, and with different special effects and fireballs of course, to make the world better as I see it :)) Probably, it's the true reason why I'm here now........

@busmark_w_nika science fiction, fantasy, different comics series, early computer games, and stuff like that and what inspired you, besides crime series? 🎃

As a child, I dreamed of becoming an explorer, exploring the world and solving mysteries. The feeling of adventure and discovery is like playing io games where you are always looking for something new and challenging.

Interesting reflection! It's funny how childhood dreams evolve. I wanted to be a marine biologist, spending my days exploring the ocean. Now, I'm a software engineer! I guess life takes you on unexpected paths. It's kind of like those random conversations you have on Omegle - you never know where they'll lead. Maybe that inner FBI agent in you still peeks through when debugging code, haha!
