i found this on my old livejournal
[no, i won't tell you where it is]
and when i read it, it made me laugh.
When I grow up, I will have 4 cats.
And a husband.
We will sit around and eat Chinese food and read all day, and the cats will climb and be easily amused.
After we're done reading, we will go out to the water and just look and smell and be, because I wouldn't be able to survive any differently.
Even though I don't like swimming in it, I can still like it.
My husband will be great.
He will tell me I'm interesting and beauiful and amazing and breaktaking and I will laugh and blush because I don't take compliments well.
He will rub my head while I lay on his leg and we will live happily ever after in a world with no hunger and no disease and no hate.
Just me, my husband and our four cats.
When I grow up, I will be a singer.
I will be on stage and people will love me and clap for me.
I will inspire people with my songs and move them with my music.
I will go to hospitals and see sick kids because that's what famous people do.
I might even get a fast white car, because that's what famous people do.
I will be sought after and wonderful and have fans everywhere.
Just me, the singer, and the sick children and the fast white cars.
When I grow up, I will look back and hope that my life hasn't been a bunch of what ifs.
I pray that I do some of the things I want to, not just sit and write and hope.
I want to visit people, do things.
Maybe not great things, but things I normally wouldn't do.
I want to go to the mountains.
I've already been, but only with family.
I want to go with someone special; a friend. Or someone else.
Just me, my someone, and the wide, limitless world.
