My Hopes and Dreams
“Daddy, when I grown up I want to be a movie star!" Almost every young girl has that dream of becoming something they admire so much when they are young. As a young girl I had those dreams also. I had big dreams of becoming an aspiring actress, top model, and a platinum selling artist. Those dreams changed into something different every single day and my parents always told me to keep up the good work and I could become anything my precious little heart would desire.
Now I am older and my dreams have changed and I have developed a precious thing called hope to go along with those dreams. Besides my hopes and dreams my parents are the backbone of my life. My parents have helped me to become a caring, determined, reliable, and smart person that I am today. They taught me to not let anything interrupt me while I am traveling on my path to success even though I am bound to run into a few bumps along the journey but I am pretty sure that I will have learned a couple of lessons after my journey is over.
After high school I plan on attending a college that suits me the best and take up Business Administration as my major and continue to grow in my other occupation which is photography. I know that college is a big step for me and will unlock a new chapter in my life. I hope that college will teach me a lesson and help me to learn more responsibility than I already have. Even though it is a big step, I am to commit to fulfill all of my college responsibilities such as getting my lesson and getting a job to help pay for all of my expenses but at the same time enjoy my experience.
Following college I plan on getting a wonderful job that I will love and absolutely enjoy arriving to everyday and also enjoy the people and the environment that I will be working in. After settling in at my job just like any other girl, I want to settle down and hope to find a soul mate that supports me in anything I do, start a family, and not have to worry about any stress being placed on my shoulders because of the way the economy is.
If I continue to travel on the path that I am already on I know that success will be in my future. With me being a smart and self-assured person I will not have to worry about anything because I have loyal friends and a very encouraging and loving family. They will greatly lift me up and put me back on track whenever I have my downs. My mother and father placed me on my permanent path called hopes and dreams and now I just have to stay on it and live my life to the fullest
