The Many Adventures of You & Me

When you wish upon a star....

Everybody has dreams.

BIG dreams.

Little Dreams.

Current dreams and dreams about the future.

I was reading a blog about a girl who is currently studying abroad and was a little sad, that used to be one of my dreams. The thought of being emersed in a culture while going to school was always appealing to me. I love to travel, so my dreams usually included an new exotic place. I thought about the dream I have had over the last 25 (almost 26) years.

I have dreamed about...

being a doctor

traveling to every country in the world

making a difference

being an OT

being a PA

getting married

having kids

being successful

being creative

inventing something great

humanitarian trips galore as a medical professional

having fireworks at my wedding

Recent dreams

moving for grad school

going to nursing school

a house

a real career

I really can't complain, I have a great life and many wonderful dreams have come true.

The dream that can't come true fast enough...

randclang said...: Hmmmmm............new questions. Are you going to love princesses? Are you going to love the color pink? Are you going to be a ballerina? Are you going to hate bugs? Or are you going to be like your mom loving sports, not liking pink until you are in your twenties, loving bugs and castrating cows. We love you already and can hardly wait to meet you.; 31 July, 2011 17:21
