My mom decided yesterday would be a good day to clean out my old closet, and while doing so, found this gem tucked away amongst other pictures, and news paper clippings from my past.  Someone had told me about this before, that when I was in Kindergarden they asked me “What do you want to be when you grow up?”  To which I replied “A policewoman”  Or, at least that’s what the newspaper claimed.  Now, I wasn’t the brightest 5 year old on the block, but, I still have a hard time believing I didn’t know the difference between a girl and a boy.

So, when I found this, I took some time to examine this ATROCITY, and it turns out I was right!  Sam answered the exact same thing.  So, either we were both idiots, or the person typing it didn’t know the difference between a boy and a girl.  Either way, this is a scar on my legacy, and I just want the controversy to die down.

I officially state that I did NOT want to be a policewoman/artist combo till at least high school.

Nothing is worse than my kindergarten “grown up” answer. I had this entire script in my head. I wanted to be a fireman, and I knew what they needed. I was ready to impress my family and be regarded as an intelligent child. I was so painfully shy though, and my teacher misheard “fireman” for “farmer” and I was too nervous to correct her. So I let her write “Farmer” down or whatever, and then I realized that I had no fucking idea what the fuck a farmer needed, so I just began to name shit off that I personally wanted. By the time the paper went out, under my name, it read: “I want to be a farmer and I will need a gameboy and a surfboard.” To this day, my mom makes fun of me for it whenever she can. And nobody believes me that I really wanted to be a fireman. Whenever my mom would get a copy of the paper, I would rip it up and flush it down the toilet. The only thing that embarrassed me more was the fact that I once smoked grass (literally) with my cousins. I remember those days. I wish those were my biggest regrets still. That’d be nice.

Both of these stories made me laugh pretty hardily.
