I'd be a fashion designer. I spent all my spare time in high school and college designing, making clothes. And going to the thrift store to buy clothes and sewing on other designs, lace, etc.

What would you be?

I'd be a New Age spiritual guru giving lectures around the world and doing workshops in sacred locations when not writing books. Laughing

A sky-diving instructor or an Olympic figure skater (my childhood dream. Alas, I never got beyond single jumps...).

Or, more realistically, a disgruntled office drone.

p.s. Speaking of porn/sex-type stuff--I've always wanted to learn pole dancing. What talent those ladies have!

Gosh, the possibilities are endless: dangerous recluse, tortured genius, ditch digger, petty con artist, US Senator, spy...

With any luck, I may be able to weave some of my other interests into my teaching career

I'd be the weather doofus on local TV giving the day's forecast. Either that, or stuck in some government office working night shift and cranking out weather models.

After an intense internship at Environment Canada related to my major (Meteorology) I decided this wasn't my cup of tea.

"Real" teacher, probably. Or something with a bit of an international bent to it, like a comparative culture or comparative religion professor at a university.

definitely an actor, comedian and entertainer.
being in this business (tefl) is the best practice/training for it you could ever expect to get without doubt.
