Star Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 hiya all! i was just curious to know what everyone wanted to be when they were growing up,or what you want to be right now and whether you actually became it (for all the adults on here) i have always wanted to be a singer but never really admitted it to anyone. I am working towards trying to make it big. I am going to be getting some music to one of my songs i wrote and hopefully will have a demo to send off to the record companies in the next few months i am starting a new college in september (i quit the last one a few months ago was doing psychology,sociology and geography A levels but decided i didn't like them and was only really doing them cos everyone else wanted me to do them.) gonna be starting a national diploma in music production and performing arts in september yay! luv nat xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nielo Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I've always liked singing, but lack the talent, so I guess that's not really an option for me. I've wanted to be lots of things, but the only thing that really stuck is writing. ^^ Now all I have to do is write something and get it published.

Star Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 Yeah my family sort of made me tell them not that long ago and I didn't want them to know. It resulted in tears oh right lol. my family were surprised when i told them they had no idea i kept it very quiet lol and they didn't know i wrote songs either so they were like 'right ok' lol i'm trying to learn the acoustic guitar at the moment to accompany some of my songs which would fit with just an acoustic guitar but haven't got very far with it yet lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been taking piano lessons for a while now so that was probably a clue. I also asked for a fancy little recording thing which she got me for my birthday (but she wasn't happy with the price ). I don't really sing unless I'm alone so I should probably work on that haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finkster Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I used to want to be the lead singer in a band and was convinced that I was stellar, but then I got older and realized I'm not nearly that great. I'm OKAY, but that's it. Don't have the talent to make it. (Plus I couldn't/can't write songs to save my life). Now I'm not exactly sure..I want to possibly become a social worker or a missionary.(Not cause of Mika, for the record). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no way i could do secondary, 10 year olds are hard enough work! I ve only got a few months left at uni then im qualified, scary!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyPenniman Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Ohh I always wanted to be Dafne, Scooby-Doo's detective! And talking about it, I always loved the yellow power ranger! I wanted to be a ridiculous talented guitar player, an Opera singer, Johnny Depp's wife, etc, etc... No, really. I wanna be Johnny Depp's wife And maybe study laws. (but all I wanna study is philosophy, tho.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
