I had many things i wanted to be but an author was one of the main ones. But just listening to the forth Harry Potter and it says something along the lines of it was hard work holding the golden egg and map in his hands. My first thought was why did he not put the egg in a bag so he would have his hands free.
Of course the practical thinking probably makes me a great childminder but would of made for a rubbish author.
Looking back i am glad if my choice.

What about you what did you want to be. Are you glad you didnt do it. What would of made you good at it or bad.
