You can always change your mind.

When I was a child I wanted to be a zookeeper. I loved spiders and would toddle around the garden to collect them in my sand bucket, to be observed on the climbing frame. I was never afraid of them, unlike most of my friends and family. The way they walked, their distinct appearance, their webbed abodes, it was all fascinating to me. I read books on dinosaurs, creatures of the past, and watched animal shows (ROAR! By the BBC was a particular favourite). I was a cub scout, always outside roaming, enjoying kayaking and adventure sports at any summer camp.
