It's hard to see your future after that first blog that I posted. LOL.
Well, since I accepted this challenge. Bear with me. This is the second topic on the list.
Some deep soulsearching in progress.
After 10 years, I would be 35 years old.
I would like to have a stable career, family, kids, and a house. The american dream.
Career: Wherever my feet will take me. In this industry and in this kind of economy, finding a job is hard. My goal is to become a CRNA and there is still time to pursue that path, It's just a matter of strong will and determination to advance.
I would be honest, it's always hard to get out of your comfort zone, and it's always scary to make major career decisions.
After 10 years I can still be in my Specialty which is Nephrology, probably in Acute/Chronic or I can be in ICU and could be going to school for CRNA.
The goal for now, is to get as many experience you can, and grow from there. It's always about gaining new skills and knowledge.
In any career, of course, the goal is you always want to advance, not just for more money, but also for self worth.
Family: When do I want to get married? When the right guy asks for my hand? I'd say 28-30 is a good age.
If God permits me to have someone in my life. I'd have a husband who loves me so dearly and I would love him just the same. I'd prefer someone to be in the same field as me, so I don't have to think about translating a medical jargon, but if not, it's okay too. Someone who can cook and wash my dishes. I hope he likes working out because, we would work out everyday. Someone who have the same interests and goals as me. Someone who can calm me down when I get really mad, because I have a bad temper. I would like to have that kind of love that would kill you, if you're not with them, like air.
Kids: I want to have kids at the age of 30-33. I would love to have twins.
They say I'm not the nurturing kind, as evidenced by my dying orchid at work, and my vicious pet at home, but I hope I would be a good mother someday to my children.
House: I would like a home that would be a witness to many of our memories as a family. I'd like it to be big enough for friends and family who would like to come over. I'd probably throw tea parties with my girlfriends and he'd host poker nights with his buds.
Again, in 10 years, these things that I mentioned are just expectations.
It may turn out as I want to be, or it may not. We decide what's going to happen, we write our own story in our own little book. We may encounter a few wrong turns along the way, but it's what we do to get back on track that matters.
Never ever regret the few bumps on the road that you have encountered in your life. It maybe just what you needed at that time to grow and to become much better. I hope someday, if ever I encounter them, and not meet this expectations after 10 years, I will go back to this blog, take a deep breath and say:
"It is okay........Love what you have, appreciate what is there, and have faith that it will happen someday, not today, but eventually."
Where would you be ten years from now?
Smooches,
P
