    Dream: Neil Peart's eventual successor (theoretically this could still happen, right?)

    Studied: Music

    Reality: Drummer for money-making corporate/wedding cover band


    I guess I came closer than a lot of people.

    Childhood dream: Vet

    I stopped wanting to be a vet around middle school. However, I didn't really get into politics until my senior year of HS.
