Dream Dream

Dreams are what we make up in are head, what we do while we sleep, what we think about at work/school anywhere. We want dreams to come true and get what we want. Dreams and the way of a person’s life.

My dreams in life are to find a nice guy maybe get married to him. Finish school get my degree in nursing. Find a nice 3 bedroom house, with a backyard with a pool, a nice garden, and a Mercedes Benz that is candy apple red with black leather interior. To make these dreams happen I will need to go to a nice collage with a good nursing program. Start saving my money to buy the things I want like my “dream” house and car. If the dreams I have happen to not work out. I will be happy with whatever life throws at me. As long as I am a happy person then I am good. I don’t need everything in the world to make me happy.

American Dream is which freedom includes a promise of prosperity and success. “Life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according the ability or achievement” (James Turslow Adam). Many immigrants came to America because there was freedom and they didn’t have to live under hard rules. It didn’t matter what social class you were, everyone was treated equally. Immigrants’ wanted the freedom and to be treated equally.

The people generations ago dreams were different because, they probably were dreaming about how they are going to live through the winter or getting food for their family. They were dreaming more for survival. Rather than today people are dreaming about the next clothing item they are going to purchase or the next time they will go on a vacation. There are still some similarities today still. Some people mite not have a good job and have kids they are worried about feeding their family and paying the bills, just like people back then were trying to feed their families and so.

Economic depression can affect dreams because, if things starting going into a recession people won't be able to really afford things. Things mite close down and dreams can or could be crushed. Dreams are not constant. A people grow older their mind set change. When I was a little girl I wanted to be a famous people now that I am older I wanted to be an nurse. Things change as people age.

Not everyone is the same and they don't all have the same dreams. People with more money may have different dreams than people that are poor. People from different countries may have different dreams then people in Canada. It all depends on the person and the situation.

Some dreamers may go to far. They mite think that they can have everything in the world. They mite think that they will never have to work again. But in reality they will. They will never stop dreaming which is a bad thing cause when they don't get what they want they will get angry. Some dreams are to complex for the human mind and probably won't work in this world but people will want it. But can't have it.

The Realization Summer

I am ready to live on my own. I am a grown women after this summer. I am ready to spread my wings.

The events that happened this summer were like no other summer. There were many memories. I guess I would have to say that I am ready to be on my own. I was barley even at home, I spent most days with my boyfriend. Even thou I did not spend a lot of time with friends, or family I still had a amazing time. It really makes me realize that, I am ready to live on my own. From camping to going to Vancouver, Im not sure where to start.

Well I guess I will start with my camping adventures. Myself and boyfriend Dallas we went camping with our friends John, Connor, Steph, Mike, Taylor. We went up Carmi on July 1^st for Canada day. What a time that was. From Mike cutting his hand and not realizing it. To Steph and I almost getting attacked by a dog. We were up there for one night but it was a great time. By night so many people came up to visit. When we got there these older guys came and introduced themselves. They were so funny. They took John and Taylor on there golf cart for a ride and when they got back they said they were doing jumps and such with it. Now that would have been a time and a half.  

The next camping trip was sometime in August. We all went up to West Kelowna to a place called Bear Creek Park. That was a pretty good time too. We had the trail park officer come and give us trouble, but  really he just thought he was something special like Wallmart security. We hiked up a mountain and we could see everything. We had a crazy fire going on too, pretty much like a bond fire. But all in all it was a good time.

3-4 days I spent at home, I was going down the channel and going boating. The channel was a fun time. Got bit and attacked by some ducks. That feeling is like an adrenaline rush all at once. I went down with my friends and we had to be at the end for a certain time. Well by the time we got half way we had to swim almost the whole other half. Now that was tiring.  Boating was good, we did some tubbing. Tubbing is intense, the feeling of holding on with your life and not wanting to fall off into the cold water. Or when you jump into the water to get to the tub, that tense feeling your body does with the cold water.

In July my Uncle Michael came. He was living in Australia for 2 years. When he came and visited we had a mini Christmas. Christmas in July hey! I didn’t get to see him much since he was here for his 20^th grad reunion.

One day in August my boyfriend Dallas and I were at his cousin’s John’s house, and his friend’s car blew up right after he got out. That was crazy, the whole car was in flames. That is going to be an expensive fix right there. But good thing he was out of the car before it blew up. That was an eventful day.

My boyfriend Dallas and his family were getting family picture done. His mom wanted me to be in the pictures too! I was so happy. It felt like I was apart of the family. It was a really good time. The family pictures turned out so well. Everyone was so happy.

To end off the summer I went to Vancouver with Dallas to visit his dad and step mom. It was such a nice drive down there. And the weather was so nice for the long weekend. We made Indian Candy. It was a pretty big process. After the 3 days it took to make it, it was pretty delicious. I got to go shopping that was lots of fun. It is to bad we don’t have malls like the ones in Vancouver. It is relly nice when you feel like a big family.

All in all the summer of 2011 was amazing from frezing cold water, to being ready to move out, and feeling like a family. It made me realize that I am ready to move out. It makes me realize the Dallas is with me till the end. And that I am ready to spread my wings and become and grown person.
