When I grow up!!

When I was a child I wanted to be a TAXI DRIVER when I grow up.
So I asked my mother, which university I will have to attend. She looked at me and say “a what????? I repeated a Taxi Driver! She said ok my baby you’ll have to attend a Driving University it’s somewhere in Cape Town (. I was so excited I was telling everybody about it. I even asked my teacher, about how many years it was going to take for me to get my degree. She shook her head and say “20 hours”. LOL

What you wanted to be when you grow up???????

When I grow up, I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies
When I grow up, I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars, I wanna have boobies

When I grow up, be on TV
People know me, be on magazines
When I grow up, fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene

Be careful what you wish for
'Cause you just might get it
You just might get it
You just might get it

heheheh and I was thinking this blog had to do with Pussycat Dolls National Anthem.

Iyooooooooo I wanted to be a Medical Doctor, you won't believe that I changed my mind on the last five months in my matric year after I did a reality check that I'm scared of blood and injured person let alone the sick one. My mom was like what were you thinking grand grand ngoba uligwala.

And I am gald u did, coz there is nothing worse than someone who is trapped in a lifestyle they don't prefer. I have a a gay friend who is so cool, 26 years nogal, yet he is still in the closet due to the fear of being judged.

I wanted to be a teacher, and beat the hell out of my class teacher’s child; until I found out she was attending a Model C school, at that time I didn’t know any darkie teacher at a Model C school.

Then I wanted to be a nurse and my class teacher was going to be my patient, I was going to torture her like she did me. Then she never missed a day at school and was never sick.

So I decided to become a truck driver and it would be raining and she would be walking and I would drive into a water muddle and splash her with mud. She got herself a car.

By the time I chose another career I had outgrown my obsession with revenge.

When i was in primary i wanted to be an air hostess, i alwasy thot they looked hot with pantihose.
Then in high school i was a tomboy and i wanted to be a mechanic, even after high school, i begged to be taken to a mechanics course, mnciim, my aunt did not want to hear of it, she said i must start plaiting my hair like other gals (i had brush cut then), maybe then i will know what i want in life, ignorance, she thot mechanics was a man job.
My dream was crushed!
What i really want when i grow up is money, i dont care what happens or what i have to do, im not even sure what im doing is what i want, but it pays my bills, thats fine for now.

she was asked what she wanted to be(whe she grows up) and she said as a kid she always wanted to be an actress
asked what she would be if she wasnt an actress---guess what she said----an actress

My brother wanted to be a Police man, because they wear toooooooo much gold teeth and chains.

@Blueroze, I did read her intervew. what pissed me off with her was that she doesn't talk much about her first born child. and to me it sounds like she loves her younger son more becuse she's married to his father. I din't like her inteview at all!!!

@blueroze, we know she's happily married, but really she should have taken both children to a photoshoot. maybe the older son stays with grandmom not her. she said something about her and her hubby going to New York for holidays and her mother and the kids will go to the Coast. eish bathong!
