What do you want to be when you grow up?
15 years ago
I can remember sitting in a circle on the carpet in preschool with my class.
When I was asked this, I answered, "I wanna be a cat".
I took the phrase, 'you can be anything when you grow up', literally.
I don't know, I thought you could just... switch once you became an adult.
Before I was told that was impossible, I had spent 2 months or so crawling around my house on hands and knees, having my dad yell at me to shut up and stop 'meowing', and eating my food on the floor, practicing.
It's so easy for young minds to pretend, imagine, and have fun with nearly anything.
I hate feeling like I've lost those abilities.

imagination is "for the little ones" when you learn how tough reality is you lose part of that. it sucks really XP
I would eat my food on the floor too xD I thought that if i did 'doggy' things i would eventually turn into one
