I've asked this question of myself and other people a lot over... well my whole life. As I sit here now, savoring my last days in Korea, it occurs to me that this is a rather silly question. I imagine there are some people who will ask me, "Did you always want to be an EFL teacher?" and I would have to say, "well... no". Go back a little ways in my resume and someone might ask, "Did you always want to draw people's dogs?" and I'd have to say, "Well... of course not, no." Then you dig a little deeper and you say, "Did you always want to make professional webpages" and I'll say double no to that one.

Maybe I will become a writer and then I can say, "Yeah, ever since I was a little girl", but I imagine that there are a whole lot of careers I'm going to fall in and out of besides that... and that suits me just fine.

I think the longest lasting aspiration I ever had was to be a cartoonist. At various others times I've wanted to be certain things, but I think that overall, I've never personally "always wanted to be something." Kind of just assumed I would be something without having to think much about it, I suppose...

What do I want to be when I grow up? Dead. Why? Because I don't want to grow up! :P

Nah but for real, it is a silly question. I imagine most people aren't going to say that what they're currently doing is what they've always wanted to do... seems like we're all dissatisfied in one way or another.

I'm not a morning person. I have two alarms set to wake me up. But the days I get up early without any struggle are the days when I don't have to question where my life is headed. Because my passions overpower my fatigue. Even though I still don't know where my life is going, on those days, I know I'm on the right track.
