My Hopes and dreams: exposed
Julia Meyer

In This Article:

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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
