In about twenty years, I picture my life very successful and me enjoying every moment of it-just as I do now. I picture myself that I will be graduated out of college and I will be working. At this point in my life I hope to be a teacher. That could change, as I do not know for sure what college I will have attended and where I will be living. I do want to live in my own house, sharing it with my husband, because I want to get married. I'm not so positive on this thought yet, but it might be nice to have one child at this point. If it is a girl, I would want to name her Catherine, Allison-and call her Alli for short, or Katie. These are my three favorite girl names. I know for sure that I don't have any favorite boy names right now.
Shortly after I graduate from college, I want to be living in my dream house. This would be the house that I hire someone to build, and that I would design/decorate myself. I have a huge plan for my dream house, but it would cost so much money to build and decorate. One of my favorite TV channels to watch is HGTV, which I watch almost whenever I have free time (which has been limited lately). This is almost a "bad habit" because it is constantly giving me ideas to add onto my long list.
Another thing I have myself pictured accomplished is running my first marathon and ultra marathon. When I get older, I plan to be a big runner. I want to run my first marathon either in college, or shortly after I graduate college. If you are wondering and don't know what an ultra marathon is it is a race that is any distance longer that 26.2 miles. This could be around 32 miles or more. My dad has run a few of these races, and it seems like it would be so much fun! I have also read a book a few months ago, and it described another type of race to run. It is 50 miles, and you get to have a team. The team consists of two runners and a horse. One member rides the horse a few miles up the trail, ties it up, and continues running, while the other runner runs up to the horse, unties it and rides it past the first runner, then ties it up..ect. This goes on for 50 miles, and there are various stops on the way. Some of these include aid stations for the runners, and health checking stations for the horses. This is one race that I wish to participate in, even though I don't even know where these kinds of races are hosted, how you get a horse, and how you register.
I believe that the future I have planned is pretty solid. I don't know how much of this will actually fall through, since we all know that things change. Who knows how much or if all of this will even be true. There isn't anything I can even be positive about. I don't know if I will have my dream house-I bet I won't. I don't know if I'll even be able to run-who knows what could happen? Maybe I'll end up getting hurt? And maybe I won't even be married at this point in my life, therefore I wouldn't have any kids. I think though, that if there is one thing that is the MOST promising, it would be my ability to run. Even if I don't do the major marathons and races, I can still count on running on my own. I can also count on enjoying this too. :)
