An Open Letter To The Big Dreamer

We chase dreams that are unrealistic sometimes.

Have you ever been told your dreams are unrealistic? Or, the choices you make in the career you choose will greatly effect you? In this world, not many of us are taken seriously because we are chasing dreams rather than looking over tests that require us to take the time we have in school seriously. What we don't know is that it's ok to chase after dreams, but to also have a clear conscious when meeting at the turning lane of where to go next.

In this world, we're told to do our best, but sometimes our best isn't enough. To the dreamers out there, don't be afraid to reach your goals; no matter how unrealistic. Set up a game plan to get yourself there. It helps to have GPS where ever your dream is. Be the big dreamer you've always been, set those goals and make yourself run to that finish line. Come graduation day, when some have an idea of where they're going, what would be your calling? Where would you go and what would you do?

With those careers that are unrealistic and hard to come by, it can seem like it is oceans away. It seems close, but it truly isn't, unless you have connections and money to make yourself known. It's hard to make it anywhere, even as a doctor, lawyer, and president. Making it in Congress is even hard. Every career you set your mind to, it's going to be hard. There are no easy routes to take in order to get to the dream you've had growing up.

Reaching a goal is important because of the sense of relief that comes with the realization that you've finished a task that has taken a while to finish. The realization of achieving a goal is so rewarding because it gives you that feeling of accomplishment. The excitement that comes with wanting something is a feeling only those who want to be successful get

If you truly seek to be the next doctor, lawyer, or even entertainer, set a game plan. Don't feel bad if you don't make it right away, it happens with time. Without a game plan, our world would not be what it is today.

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
