I always wanted to be a train driver. I had my own model railroad and spent hundrets of hours building model landscapes and playing with the trains. I still like trains today, especially steam locos are fascinating.

My second big dream was to work with the (first and old) "Gamestar crew" as game tester or to get a game programmer like John Romero with his cool hair style grin
My goodness, this were different times when gaming industry was a bunch of creative, cool people in little sympathic companies producing fantastic games that were so different compared to the staple articles from today.

Back at ya buddy.
Then when I got into computers (My first was a Tandy 1000HX 8088) I started learning Quick Basic I think it was back then.
That's when I wanted to be a programmer.

1st grade through 3rd grade: US President
4th through 7th grade: cancer research scientist
8th to now: game designer and CEO of a independent game developer, and eventually working for Jagex.

As you can see, I had massive dreams when I was younger, and I have gradually downsized them to be more realistic. Plus, I now realize with today's community, I would be at more risk of assassination than just about any other job in the US.

when I was little i always wanted to be police officer. When I learned about SWAT and played the game with the same name, I wanted to join the SWAT, but when I learned that it was almost impossible, I wanted to be police officer again. few years later, I got interested in games and game development.
Now I want to develop my own games and hopefully be able to join a game development company grin

Hmm... let's see...

At the first time I used Windows 95, I wanted to be the pwner ahmm... I mean owner of Microsoft.

Then a guy in an office (As far as I remember tongue My father was taking me to a tour in the company he works in)

Then a physics scientist.

Then in the first time I played Crash Bandicoot on Playstation 1, and I completed the game, I was reading the credits while saying: "Wow! I weally wanna wanna wanna be in their OMGWTFBBQ team!"
And that was my first step into the world of game creation and begging to get a job in a gaming team.

And in 2000, I found a program called "RPG Maker 2000" and I was something like: "OMGUOMG I SOOOOO WANNA BE IN THEIR TEAM!"
Then I got the trial version. There was a bug in the program, if your trial expired, just change the date setting on the PC! grin

And in 2001 I found 3DGS and I was sending messages to Conitec: "Can I be in your team PLZZZZZZZZ!!!"

And they were not replying to my messages... so I used the program instead. grin

then i wanted to do something with the movies. special effects, directing...anything but acting.

then i got interested in "how in the hell they create those video games i play"

oh yea, i almost forgot...for some longer time i wanted to be a director and have my own company(for anything) but now i'd be more than satisfied with lets say, a coffee shop for start grin
