Growing Up Isn't Growing Old

When I get older I would like a simple life. Nothing to fancy or unimaginable. My goal is to get married around the age of 25 after I finish university for.. honestly I have no idea yet. However whenever I graduate that and get my diploma I'm hoping I can marry the man of my dreams. Tall, muscular with brown hair are a couple of the main attributes I'd want my husband to have. Being wealthy isn't a huge weigh in for me, however an unemployed bachelor is never second glance able. Women and especially people like myself, need to have a man they can rely on for not only income, but intellegent advice. Sense of humour is a hit home for me. If a guy can't put up with someone who likes to just have fun 75% of the time, then he's not the right guy for me.

To complete my family I see myself having 4 beautiful children. Tait will be my oldest son and I see us having him before I turn 28. Sophia will be our second child followed by our twin boys Noah and Khal. I know it's irrational to think you have any say in what order your children come in or their sex, but hey the futures coming up with some crazy stuff, so who knows? I'm not going to be one of those parents who make their children do sports that I love to play or do activities their not interested in. As long as their doing some after school acitivies I'd be happy.

I've always seen myself as a kindergarten teacher. I love hearing what younger kids have to say and I find everything about them quite fascinating. However I'm scared to limit myself to a career in teaching when people are finding it close to impossible to get offers for full time positions. Yes, I love helping people solve problems. Yes, I enjoy making up games and songs to help my younger families catch on and remember things. And yes, i've been wanting my whole life to be a teacher, but my fear of getting stuck just substituting and not being placed into a full time position limits my desire to follow my heart.

To me growing up is a scary thought, and being in a relationship with someone for the rest of my life is close to impossible to come to par with. However I think planning out the path that im interested in going down and the family type I want to have, won't just help me find the right career, husband and future... but knowing what I want in life might help life figure out what it want's with me. As long as I end up happy, my dreams of a perfect future have come true.

  1. Tori, I was extremely impressed by this post. I thoroughly enjoyed the title, and the line, "Being wealthy isn't a huge weigh in for me, however an unemployed bachelor is never second glance able." You're honesty was admirable and I really hope that this works out for you!
