I want to become a doctor when I grow up so I could help the sick. I want to become a pilot and fly in the skies. I want to be a policeman, to protect those who are harmed. I want to become a singer and conquer people’s hearts around the world.  I want to be a billionaire, so freaking bad. (Bruno Mars)
