If I Could Be...
No one tagged me, but I thought it'd be fun to do this memearama. The idea is that:
you must select at least 5 of the ocupations listed below (feel free to select more). You may add more if you like to your list before you pass it on (after you select 5 of the items as it was passed to you). Each one begins with "If I could be..." Of the 5 you selected, you are to finish each phrase with what you would do as a member of that profession.
Here's the list:
If I could be a scientist...
If I could be a farmer...
If I could be a musician...
If I could be a doctor...
If I could be a painter...
If I could be a gardener...
If I could be a missionary...
If I could be a chef...
If I could be an architect...
If I could be a linguist...
If I could be a psychologist...
If I could be a librarian...
If I could be an athlete...
If I could be a lawyer...
If I could be an innkeeper...
If I could be a professor...
If I could be a writer...
If I could be a llama-rider...
If I could be a bonnie pirate...
If I could be an innkeeper... I'd always keep one room open, just in case. No one would ever be able to say there's no room at my inn.
If I could be a lawyer... I'd object. To what, I don't know, but I'd find something.
If I could be a bonnie pirate... there would be a "Brandon" in a port somewhere writing songs about me.
If I could be an athlete... I'd play tennis at Wimbledon and scandalize the world by refusing to curtsey to the British royal family.
If I could be a missionary... I'd come up with a new position.
Rather than tag other bloggers, I'm going to call on my fellow contributors, as well as our readers, to answer in the comments. Have fun!

| If I could be a musician...I would take up permanant residence at the newly refurbished La Scala.
If I could be a professor...I would teach my students to understand the foundations of modern society and the meaning of those documents that laid forth our society in all their future actions. If I could be a chef...I would specialize in cholesteral and seafood. If I could be an architect...I would be at peace withmyself for having finally overcome my inability to draw in order to become what was my original chosen profession in college. If I could be a doctor...I would be a pediatrician because there is no greater joy than helping a small child. |

| If I could be a scientist... I would be a tragically mad scientist with hair sticking out in all directions, a misunderstood genius who cures cancer but is killed by an angry mob before anyone realizes that I wasn't so bad after all.
If I could be a gardener... I would make gardens in inner cities. If I could be a missionary... I would be a cool undercover kind of missionary in a hostile foreign country like my friend in China is. If I could be a chef... dinner would never again be cancelled due to lack of interest. If I could be an architect... I would design and build awesome sci-fi houses. If I could be a librarian... my library would be open 24 hours a day. If I could be a llama-rider... I'd be an equistrienne and take some sweet jumps like Napoleon Dynamite tried on Pedro's bike. |

| If I could be a gardener... i'd be cross pollinating all of the time, in search of that perfect plant. that's right, my garden would be a regular roman bathhouse.
If I could be a professor... i'd sit on my can and blog all day long. All night too. If I could be a psychologist... i'd tell people that i was really a psychiatrist, then when they asked me for prescriptions i'd refuse and accuse them of being a drug addict. If I could be a librarian... i'd be a really quiet and reserved librarian, but i'd have a dark side. one day they'd find the bodies in my basement, and my neighbors would all be on the news saying, "he was quiet. kept to himself." If I could be an painter... i'd paint in the morning. i'd paint in the evening, all over this land. i'd paint out danger. i'd paint out a warning. i'd paint out love between all of my brothers and my sisters, all over this land. |
