As a kid, how did you imagine yourself as an adult? - Beyond Tiki

Then I found out that it's more difficult to get into vet school than medical school, and it's really freaking expensive, so I went into graphic arts instead. Still love animals, maybe I'll do some volunteer work at the animal re-hab center. I was pretty sure that women were married by 23(since my parents were). When I got to be around that age I kind of laughed at myself for thinking I'd be married by then. Wait a minute, I was engaged at 24, not far off. Adults always seemed way to serious. My brother and I had far too much fun to ever grow up, we still do, and it's getting a little easier to get the older generation to relax. My kids will probably be the sort that's all practical and rolls their eyes and gets embarrassed by Mum and Dad. I mean more than normal.
