When I was 7 I wanted to be a zookeeper. I loved animals and it sounded really fun. Then I found out that they had to deal with animal waste and that was a big no for my little mind and I settled for artist instead.
My dream when I was young was to be an Archaeologist & an Astronaut. Odd huh lol To look into the past but also the future. I don't have the mathematics know-how to even try. Not to mention, close quarters. Was still a nice dream that paved the way for me to be an amateur astronomer.
