When you were a kid, how did you picture yourself at the age you are now?
Original post by MrsTC
I am 27.
When I was a kid I thought that after college, I would live in a fabulous penthouse in NYC or LA and have a glamorous job...I guess I got this idea when Mattel came out with 'Working Girl Barbie' ....she came with a suit and a briefcase.
Then after that I figured I would marry a rich guy and stay happily at home with the kids. I wish!
How about you guys?

Yup, I imagined I'd finish college, get a high profile job and be making big bucks. Ha ha.....how could I have been so naive? When I was younger, I also thought that 24 was the perfect age to get married. Well, I'm 24 now, and will be getting married at 25. And at times, I feel too young to be getting married! It is funny how your perspective changes.

I always pictured myself being a teacher. It's what I wanted to do for my entire childhood, also married and having my first child by the time I was 25, 2 out of three When you are a child, you think 25 is old

I thought I would still be single and a huge corporate women who worked in the city and had a huge house. I really thought I was going to marry a big time banker and live in a penthouse in the city and have a summer house in the hamptons. I used to love this dream until I realized my life now though nothing like my dream is so much happier. I wanted to have my doctorate before I get married and be out of school. Need less to say I was engaged at 18 and married at 24. God how things change.
