My Time At ACLC 

20 Year Vision

Where do I see myself twenty years from now? Well in twenty years I will be 37. Wow that is quite a long time from now. twenty years is longer than I have been alive, and my life has changed a fair mount in that time. I've moved houses, moved schools, made friends and lost them, my mother has been chronically injured putting her out of work, I injured myself in ways I could never have predicted leaving me dysfunction in chronic pain. All of these little things changed me  and drastically changed the path of my life, if i had never become friends with jenny in middle school I would never had transferred to ACLC in high school and I would never have become the person I am today. I could never predict what my life would look like in 20 years, that is a life time or me. Instead I will say what I hope for. I hope to be content with my job, to being doing some profession that brings in a proficient amount of money to sustain my lifestyle but is also something I love doing and I feel gives me some sort of purpose in life. That job could be in the field of research and development, massage therapy, or something I haven't predicted yet. I also don’t want to be alone. I am an extrovert and I thrive on the company of others, but more specifically I want a partner. From my current perspective that companion will be Zeke my boyfriend. However, as I said before, I can’t predict what is going to happen in between now and my 37th birthday. The one thing that I am more sure of than anything else is that by that age I will be a mother. I would think of two children still in elementary school, but who knows I could have surprise twins or become pregnant a bit earlier or god forbid be sterile. I would live either in the east bay or out of country; maybe in europe.

 

Over all I want a satisfying job, a loving partner, children, and to live somewhere I enjoy. In total it is extremely vague, but that is because I don’t want to make in stone plans that are indefinite. To say I know exactly what I am going to be doing over the next twenty years is ridiculous especially since my life is in such a state of flux and I am about to reach pivotal points in my future.
