    Now that I'm about to embark on the biggest changes of my life, my reply is still, "A vet."

    Except, now, I've discovered how much I really like dogs, training, and agility, so I see that in my future somehow =) Okay, so my reply is: "A vet with a slight obsession with agility."
    I had a great friend in school. Since the first grade he said he wanted to be a vet. That's all I ever heard him say he wanted to be. We graduated co-valedictorian and he got a scholarship and went to the University of Tennessee at Knoxville to be a vet. After less than a year he left college. He's now a farmer. Must be doing well because he has a really nice home over looking the lake and 3 kids. He said that it just wasn't what he thought it would be. He was the only one that I ever knew that said from day 1 what he wanted to be. And then in the end he decided he didn't.

    I was only 3 years old when I told my parents that I wanted to be like my godmother : teacher in primary school .

    When I was 18, I went to study for...... teacher in primary schools!! Yup, I 've known all my life that I wanted to work with children.

    I tought during 10 years, then I decided to stay home to raise my own kids.
    Due to health problems, I cannot teach anymore; but I can assure you that I miss teaching a lot...
