Ambitions that never happened

When I was young, I usually wanted to be an astronaut, but didn't end up that way...

But I did have a slight ambition of being an architect and partially, I got what I wanted as of now...

I may be 29, but I still dream of becoming a biplane pilot. This book made me dream how to fly...and I never stop dreaming about it...

QLers...got some dreams that never happened when you were young or now?

(answer applies for both parachute diving and bedroom diving)

I'm going to take a parachute dive before I get married. Once I get to the marriage life, there'll be no more parachute diving...just bedroom diving. :-)

When I was a small boy, I was watching on TV some story about Icarus and I wish to have wings to fly. One day, fortunately, my mother enter in room and found me on window:) She was scared and took me down and asked why I was on window and I said that I wanted to jump and fly like Icarus. Flying was my dream and lately it became true. I had a chance to jump with parachute:)
