Let's picture this....

The movie was cute in it's own oldies type of way trying to inspire it's audience and I suppose when it comes to dreams, there are a few that I have accumulated through the years:

1. Travel around Europe. It always seems like everybody after college always has some crazy road trip with their friends and it looks like an amazing experience, one that I would like to have myself. It would be nice to just wander around aimlessly with friends in a foreign place.

2. Law school has always been in the back of my mind. Too much Law& Order, I suppose but it has always been something that I would love to do. I guess that in high school, I pushed it aside to just pursue something that seemed more practical but after taking a couple of law classes at Baruch, it has stirred up some interest in law again. My professor now also has a bachelors in Finance and after that, he decided to go to law school so that is a possibility that I would like to see happen for me too. And he loves what he does

3. Within a year after graduation, I would hope to find a steady job that I'd like. I'm still not quite too sure a career in what yet but a fall back would to just stay at Abercrombie and become a manager until I find something more fulfulling. Then I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to move out. I do love my family but it's time to spread those wings and fly. Fly far away.

4. My dad currently owns his own mechanic shop / used car dealership and I would love to keep that running when he chooses to retire. He spent 16 years as a taxi driver to provide for his family and then he finally was able to go after his dream when I got into college to open up his own business and I would love to keep that alive for him. He worked so hard to get it, it'd be a shame to see it all go away when he gets too old for it.

One thing I should do is to become more organized with even something like time- management and budget to help get some of those dreams moving along.
