In high school I wanted to be an architect. Graduated and went on to struggling for years working in retail til I finally had enough and went to college. Found out quickly that there was zero demand in my area for that and pivoted to being a mechanical engineer. I now have 13 years of doing that and am glad I went that option as I can go anywhere in the world with this skill set.
I wanted to be a civil engineer and design bridges and buildings basically since I was 10. When I went to university and took my first Statics/mechanics class, I noped the fuck out and studied chemistry instead.
