I have a question for you guys.
Where do you honestly see yourself in 5 years? You all should answer this; I'm really curious.
Here's mine:
Ok there's a worst/best case scenario here. If I don't learn any self-discipline or learn to fight for my dreams, then I'll most likely be a college dropout trying to "get by" by endlessly searching for a job that will keep me financially stable. AKA a boring 9-5 desk job that I don't enjoy, but that I have to have in order to keep food on the table. And as far as my personal life goes in this worst case scenario, I'll be empty inside and either be going through boyfriends like whoa trying to find someone to fill the void (even though no guy can do that...so it'll be an endless pursuit), or I'll be alone and bitter and already starting my accumulation of cats.
In the best case scenario I would be out of college in 5 years with a degree in Philosophy. Depending on whether or not I wanna go to grad school (or have the money for grad school), I'll either be working on my masters in law or philosophy, or in the Peace Corps. And as far as my personal life goes in this best case scenario, I'll be happy and living my life the way I want to: appreciating all the little things in life and cherishing all my priceless friend. and not taking life for granted. And hopefully in 5 years I'll either be engaged or in a serious relationship with whomever. I hope I won't be ready to settle down, by any means...in 5 years I'll still only be 23 and way too young for a husband and kids! but hopefully I'll at least know what/who I want, and be able to distinguish my future on the horizon. Oh, and in 5 years I'll still be short. =(
