i was a fish...
Jokes.
But here are a few more things which i do really wish for.
I really should have mentioned this earlier, as i'm already on my way to completing this one, though this is just the start of a long chain and is connected to me wanting to be a cafe/restaurant owner. For those who don't know, i'm already training as an apprentice chef, i'm in my first year out of three and every 10 weeks i get moved into another kitchen. Meaning i get lots of experience doing different things, but also means that i have to readjust my routine and meet new people every 10 weeks.
I've always wanted to be a chef, even when i was a kid, but mum put me off by saying about the long hours and weird times you have ot work. I decided sometime last year (or the year before) that i'm really not that great at anything other than cooking and so being a chef would be the only thing i would be able to successfully do as a career.
- I want to do beading and wire wrapping
Seeing pictures of what people make on sites such as deviantart are truly amazing and inspirational. Ever since i saw the first few pictures of what wire wrapping was, i've wanted to do it. And now having gone to the craftexpo and made a beaded charm bracelet it feels like i really do have my foot in the door now and can start learning how to make the beautiful pieces of jewellery i drool over. It's a lot harder than it look though and often the work gets very fiddly. I hope with a lot of practice i can do well and possibly even sell pieces of jewellery.
- I want to be a house wife and mum
Ok, this one might just sound lame to a lot of females out there, however, to me, the desire for being a stay at home mum, looking after babys and making meals for my husband is above and beyond that of pretty much all my other dreams. It's also the dream that creates a whole lot of issues.
I want to have kids young (say early to mid 20's) becuase it is the best time biologically to have kids, i don't want to be really old (and have a beard) when my kids are in high school and i want to see my grandkids grow up, possibly even great-grandkids. That's when the problems kick in, if i want to have kids young, i will have to sacrifice whole lots of other dreams or postpone them until a time where i might not have time to complete them.
Guess i'll just have to find a balance, just like everyone else on this earth.
oh my god Chrissy. that beard comment made me laugh so much :D
ReplyDeletei don't think it's such a bad thing to want kids so early. for some people it's just the best time, and it means that you'll always be closer in age to your kids, more so than mums (like mine) who started when they were 30. and i'm sure there are ways to get enough time to fulfill your other dreams :)
i am the same, chrissy, with the house mum thing. i want so bad to have kids when i am young, but i also want to spend my youth travelling the world. and getting a head start on a proper career. so, i understand!
