My Hopes and dreams: exposed

Take a peek into my mind and heart.

My Hopes and dreams: exposed
Julia Meyer

I have taken some time off from writing, but here I am, hoping to come back better than ever. Here we go...

I have always loved having something to work toward - an end point to focus on. I can't give myself too much credit, as I tend to procrastinate like crazy. But, I love knowing that one day, something that I had spent time hoping for in the past, is now the present, and I can move on to hoping and working for something for my future.

It is so easy to be consumed with the thoughts in our heads, and create a fantasy of what could be. I can't even tell you how often I do this, and how unrealistic it gets. I guess that is just human.

But no matter how much I do this, I try to focus on reality as well.

Even though my unrealistic dreams are out of my hand, the realistic hopes that I hold are in my power.

Take a look below into what I hope and dream for in my future.

1. I hope to always be happy, or at least try my best to be

This sure can be difficult at times, but I always try to stay positive, and hope that that will bring happiness in my future.

2. I hope to always embrace who I am, and what I believe in. And I hope to always be proud of that person.

You all should do this too. Two words... self love.

3. I hope to start a family that is filled with love, passion, and happiness. And I hope that that never fades.

A television show perfect, picture perfect relationship and family is my dream.

4. I hope to remain as close as I am today with my best friends and family, for the rest of my life.

I have been so incredibly blessed with all of the people in my life; I could never imagine losing them or even being half as close with them.

5. On a less serious note, I hope to open a coffee shop later in my life that is filled with local artwork and rustic furniture.

We'll see if this one comes true... but if it does, come by for a great atmosphere and a tasty cup of coffee :)

6. I hope to become successful and happy in my career.

Something most people aspire to achieve. I couldn't imagine putting in so much hard work and not having this happen. I hope to do something including graphic design, advertising, and marketing.

7. I hope to live in Colorado, California, and Michigan at some point in my life.

Who knows where my life will take me, but I hope that no matter where that place is, that I will be happy there. I hope to live in one of these places and explore all there is to it.

So that is me.

I hope that one day, these hopes I hold for my future will become my present.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
