In 10 Years...
I almost didn't write this, when Michelle » tagged me, because like Manda », I had a really hard time coming to my own conclusion of what my life will be like “in ten years”. It's hard to say, and not for the reasons that are apparent; yes, I am young, but what I feared was not knowing where I'll be in one year, much less ten! “Time will tell” kept going through my mind, and before I knew it, three weeks have already passed! I then decided that looking at this in a different way from everyone else might help me open up my shell a little bit, a way that wouldn't scare me from writing it up. A ten year resolution, of where I need to be in ten years, for me; not where I want to be, but where I know I can and will be.
I also decided to actually use pictures(!) in this post. It's not my style or preference – going through my own pictures has given me a new found respect (as if I needed more!) for Krissy », who always uses photos; how she does it on a regular basis is going over my head at the moment – but I felt that since it was my own photography, it would be a great addition (and kind of less boring for those not in any way interested in where I'll be in ten years).
In 10 Years… I will be a photographer that travels, and works for National Geographic and Vogue Italia, because I can multi-photograph like this (and I just like taking pictures of animals and fashion… which, according to PETA, can't possibly happen (I STILL LOVE MY PRINTS AND FAKE FURS)). I will have attended at least three Lady Gaga concerts, photographed her once, and made enough money to print up large posters of my favourite manga(/anime) characters, because it's kind of less creepy than printing large posters of Ewan McGregor, Gaspard Ulliel and Gerard Butler–or worse, Lady Gaga herself.
I have also stated my love for Latino and Asian dudes many times, but if it's not apparent – I want to be partners will a Asian or Latino man-dude in the future, and have great sex with said man-dude. It's no rush, which is kind of why I left it out initially, but like most things, my posts cannot lack of perversion. Just to make you think, “wow, when I'm having a bad day, and Tess posts, I'm like, 'well, at least I'm not her', and I suddenly feel better”.
…and the whole happy thing Manda » stated, because if I don't have happiness with all of that, I won't really be living any of it.
(I also tag Christina » (in her corresponding LiveJournal, of course), Dee » (which should be interesting, because she's one of the few older (than me) bloggers out of school that I actually admire), Clem » (I've never spoken to her personally, but I know she'll make a funny story out of it or draw dinosaur pictures, and I like both (especially together)) and finally Georgina ».)

Oh drat. I used [less than three] and my comment got killed. Here's the rest; sorry for the double post! XD
I used to be one who dreaded the future greatly. I didn't want to think about what could happen, and as much as things like horoscopes and fortune tellers made me curious, I held back. I know a few people who went to those kinds of people and were amazed because they told them things that came true - but I believe that my future is what I make of it.
Only recently did I start thinking about what life would be like for me in the future and I believe that it will be much better than now. High school was a real struggle for me, and now I feel very motivated after receiving great marks in university, I can imagine myself going on to at least a Masters degree. :D
I absolutely love photography, yet I don't have a fancy camera or do anything professionally. It's all for a hobby. :) I made a photoblog where I post daily, because I love taking photos that much! My favourite thing to take photos of is flowers and things in nature - the sky, plants, birds, and the like.
In ten years I would imagine myself to be married. Maybe with a child? Who knows.
I suppose I shall elaborate in a new post on my blog before I write everything in here! XD

Yay! Tess pictures! I demand more of these in the future! Because look how awww they all are.
And that sounds like a marvelous future! National Geographic and Vogue Italia! I approve, I approve. :D If you hadn't have included the latter I would have smacked you. ;) Also, I will lay claims on you now to take lots of pretty pictures of the interiors I design. ;)
