My Big 5 For Life(:

When writing my blogs I tend to think long and hard about what to write exactly. When thinking about the five things in this life that really matter to me and make me want to wake up every morning to get a day closer to made it a little easier. In a simple list my BIG 5 for LIFE would be:
1. Graduate from college and get my degree
2. Have a job that I love and makes me happy
3. Have a husband and family
4. Travel to Rome
5. Help a complete stranger in some way or form
My big 5 may be strange but they make perfect sense to me. Going to school is not only my dream but my family's dream as well. Seeing me further my knowledge and make something out of myself is a goal that I have always put in front of myself. That ultimately leads to me having a job that will make me happy. Some people tend to have jobs because of the amount of money they make or just cause it is what they are use to. I want to be a teacher and help little children learn new skills and to read and write. Which brings me to my big #3 of having a family and a husband. Growing up and playing house was always something I did, and having a family is a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. A loving husband and great kids that may not be so great at times. I've only been to New Jersey, Chicago, and Florida my entire life. So traveling out of the states is really important to me. I would want to go to Rome because it just seems so beautiful and it is completely different then anything that I know of. Going somewhere far and beautiful doesn't sound like a bad idea to me! The last one on my list is helping a complete stranger. When some people think of helping someone out it usually has to be financially. But I don't mean just financially, to me helping someone out goes further then that. Maybe helping them in a tough situation and just being a friend for them to lean on. Giving advice and pointing them in the right direction, but it can't be just anyone it has to be a stranger. Making a difference for someone else seems like a good idea to me. There are many things I want in life, like my hair to be longer for example, but when taking a step back and actually thinking about what to me are my Big 5 for Life these are the ones and in some way or another I will always be trying to reach all of them. With just the right amount determination I know that my Big 5 for Life will be reached!(:
