If you'd never picked up a pencil and started drawing, what other hobby would you have liked to pick up or showed promise for? In terms of things I never actually made an attempt at, I think I would have enjoyed trying my hand at volunteer work at animal shelters a whole bunch. I could really see that eating up my time and even having gone down that career field, since 'zookeeper' was my first dream job as a smol bean. |

I legit wanted to do art since the day I was born, so that's kinda hard to think about, to be honest.
The closest thing I can defect to is either a stand-up comedian or an accountant. Stand-up because I like to make people laugh while doing stupid shit, and accountant because crunching numbers is calming to me.
EDIT: Other occupations I've looked into were neuro-surgeon (Too much schooling and precision), anthropologist (I only like the gross stuff when it comes to the human condition though), Food or Movie Critic (I'd have to taste and eat a lot of shit), and TV Show host for Traveling (I'd get a shitload of creative control up my ass for that one)

I don't know. I don't remember life before being a weeb. Maybe I'd just be a dumb tomboy who plays video games. That's all I remember really doing as a child apart from the occasional doodles on MS Paint.
Now that I think about it, maybe I'd be going into computing or programming cause I would play with all the computer programs as a kid.

If life had gone a different route I probably would've become a dancer. It was my first love lol then I got injured physically and started using art to vent.
I used to tell my mom I wanted to be a lawyer when I was like seven but looking back it just would've never been plausible because I'm just way too shy lol

As a kid my first obsession was paleontology. Digging in the dust for old bones was my idea of heaven. But I think my addiction for world building and creating characters would have caught up with me eventually and I would have focused that into getting a novel or two published.

I attended a lot of theater camps as a kid so I might've pursued acting. I was also obsessed with the idea of writing my own fantasy adventure novel when I was in middle school. I can't imagine myself doing something that's not along the lines of "creative."

If we're taking strictly hobbies? It's really hard to remember, like what it seems with everyone else here I have to dig around to really think about that kinda stuff.
I know I really love Disney World, even now I stalk around the community of Disney Goers and learn more and more about how some rides where made and produced, secrets and fun facts about the park, and just overall keeping up with Disney Theme Park related news? Idk if you'd call professional Disney-Goer a hobby though, but I do spent a lot of time in that subject and have been for my entire life.
Outside of that I played around a lot with music (both Flute in High school and independently doodling around with piano at home). I guess if I had the chance to take piano lessons in my life I'd very much be way into that more.

I probably would have been an athlete. Either track or ultimate frisbee -- I also looked into trying out for the football team when I was in high school but that seemed less likely.

No seriously, here's the link: 
Messed up life situations got in the way, and now no one entered anything, even me. I'm sad...
