Because I seem to be in a surprisingly good mood today, here is a somewhat upbeat entry for a change.
I heard about this little exercise where you try to make a list of 100 things you want (to do, to have, to achieve, etc.) and then see how many of them you actually get/achieve/do down the roller-coaster road we call life.
Here is mine so far, in no particular order:
I want...
1. To graduate
2. To move out of my mom's house
3. A job that I am enjoy and am happy in, a job that will allow me to still have adequate free time to pursue my hobbies/interest, and is lucrative enough that I can fund my hobbies (Maybe that should be three separate things)
4. To meet a guy I am crazy about and that is crazy about me
5. To make friends easier
6. To take a pottery making class
7. To take a jewelry/bead class
8. To get healthier and lose weight
9. To love myself completely, unconditionally, and unequivocally
10. A boyfriend
11. To be myself without caring what others think
12. To be honest to goodness happy
13. To change the negative thinking patterns
14. To go on a cruise
15. To drive across the country and take my sweet time doing it and to go to Mount Rushmore, and Niagara Falls
16. To fall deeply and madly in love
17. Marry a guy I am deeply and madly in love with and who feels the same about me
18. Let go of the past
19. Develop my skills in photography
20. A nice DSLR camera
21. to take riding lessons in Dressage or jumping with my horse
22. to be able to really and truly talk to my dad without it feeling awkward or forced
23. A house and several acres for my horse
24. A Netherland dwarf rabbit
25. to visit Paris
26. to go on a safari in Africa
27. To wake up every day with a purpose
28. To own a horse that is a good match for me and who bonds with and trusts me
29. To let go of all the anger that I carry with me like it's my identity
30. To know who I am and what I am supposed to do here
