My Life Plan; whether you like it or not
So.. I’ve been thinking a lot about my future latley. Well actually I do it a lot. My boyfriend says its not necessarily a good thing , but its just the way I am.
I am a freshmen in college studing early childhood education. I love kids, absolutley love them. It fascinates me how their little brains work and how they develop as they get older. I am actually transferring home to a 4 year community college.
My reasons for transferring home:
1. It is WAAAAYYYY cheaper than the 4 year university I am at right now.
You may be thinking, “ well if your transferring because of money , why did you go to a 4 year school in the first place?” which is a valid question. The answer to that question would be: I wanted to move away from home and be independent and have the college experience. And I did that. I am still currently doing that at the moment. BUT I have come to realize that loans are really scary and being a broke college student is a real thing.
Going into college I knew how expensive it was and I knew that I would be taking loans out and I knew I would be in debt as an adult from my schooling. But as I thought about it more in my free-time, I decided that I would rather work and or pay off my school as I go and save some money, even if that meant giving up my independence.
2. I don’t really like it here..
Initially when I saw this campus for the first time, I fell in love with it. Don’t get me wrong it is a beautiful campus. I just dont really like it anymore. And that’s all there is to it.
3. I miss my family and loved ones too much
I find myself missing home the second I get back to school and when I am home I find myself dreading the fact that I have to be stuck here until the next time I can go home.
Yes I may live in an apartment style dorm hall, and have 3 other roommates but I dont really like them and I dont really have any other friends, therefore I am always alone. ALWAYS. It’s nice sometimes, but after a while it can get boring and horrible. I literally cry all the time here because I am so alone. Yes I have a boyfriend and a family who love me, but the fact that I am physically alone is really hard sometimes.
Thats all for why I’m transferring home, now back to the actual point of this post.
My life plan may be “unrealistic” to some or many or all of you, but to me, it is my dream and is what I want in this exact moment and for my life.
I want to move back home and get a job and go to the 4 year community college and save money while going to school.
As I finish my first year at that school (my 2nd year of college) I would 1. Move out and 2. Get engaged to my boyfriend.
I would then continue school and work for a year or two.
I would then want to get married.
Right after marriage I want to start having a family.
I would continue to work while pregnant and once I am off my materinity leave, I would go back to work and bring my baby with me because I would be working at a childcare center.
I would then continue to have a family and continue working and let life go on.
You all may be thinking, “this girl is dreaming, and she is crazy”. I know I am. BUT this is how I want my life to go. I know it isnt good to have expectations in life, trust me I have learned the hard way.
Obviously if this stuff doesnt happen I will still be ok, as long as I am happy with my boyfriend and am still going to school and making money.
If you read this whole thing, I cant thank you enough. I really appreciate you taking like 800 hours of your life to read this exteremly long post. Thank you a million.
