When I was told in kindergarten that I could be anything when I grew up, I wanted to be an "octopus" but instead of a tentacled creature, I was thinking of a fox.

When people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I would alway say "rabbit" or some type of animal. I used to think if you acted like an animal you could turn into one!

I was determined to be Ariel from The Little Mermaid. I wanted a big house with a moat, so I could live on land, but still swim. EVERY YEAR I dressed up as Ariel for halloween...and still do.
