27th tomorrow! NA NA NA NA NAAAAAAAAAH!!!! :P
Dream Big
I
have a lot of dreams in life but I consider most of them ambitions. I don’t
know what the difference is, really but in my own little world, the difference
is ambitions are something I want to become and dreams are things I want to
have in the future or things I want to do and the like.
So
we already got down with the college dream in our first essay and the marriage
thing too so what’s left to talk about concerning dreams? Hmmm. I’m so lost
right now. Haha.
Ok,
here’s one. One day I dream of living a good life. [HAHA. OMG, THAT IS SOO
LAME! And not to mention typical] No seriously, I guess one of my dreams is
that one of these days I’d wake up in my very own home with the prettiest view
right outside my window next to the perfect guy (for me. not the world.) with
sleeping kids in the next room with only one thought in my head, “God, I swear
that I could die right now and you could send me straight to hell and I
wouldn’t mind, really. I’ve been living in heaven all my life anyways.” Because
the truth is simple, I only want to be truly
happy and not just me though, I’d be selfish if I didn’t wish that the
people I love would be equally happy as I am. So I wish them happiness too. And
that’s all I really need to make it through this roller coaster. (And candy!)
Aside
from that, I dream of being well-off, rich even (if possible). I dream of going
to places, a lot of places and meeting a lot of interesting people. I dream of
making a big impact on someone’s life. Hopefully that impact would be great
enough to get an “I can’t live without you” outta them. (hehe. Dream big)
But
aside from happiness and interesting people I can only truly wish for a life
well lived. I want to live a life where I don’t have to look back and regret
doing this or not doing that. I
don’t want to live a life knowing that I missed this opportunity nor do I want
to be in a situation where I’m about to die and the only thing I feel like I
lack is time cuz I think that’s stupid. There’s so much time out there and I
know that it’s up to me to make the most out of it. And right now, I’m trying.
Believe me, I’m trying.
To
cut this short, I want to live a good life. It could be a crazy life or
whatever, for as much as I care. It could be any kind of life you could imagine
as long as the bottom point is that I lived. “Live your life so the preacher
doesn’t have to lie at your funeral.” These are the words I live up to now and
they’re awesome.
I’m
going to live my life, keep dreaming and hopefully accomplish all these dreams
of mine and I’m going to do all of these with a lollipop in my right hand and a
bottle of champagne [cuz sosyal man kuno ko!] in the other. And I’ll be
screaming and laughing my head off the whole ride cuz I’m cool like that. Haha
