Vision Board

I was ransacking my things days ago (see previous entry) and I came across this Vision Board I made when I was still studying. It was an assignment from my Christian Living sort of class, I don’t know what the course was called exactly because I never paid attention to religion themed courses, but the whole thing was about how God made everything and how we should live very saint-like christian lives. Yes, I am exaggerating. You know how I feel about religion. Anyways, were asked to create our own Vision Board, meaning what we think we will be having or what we want to have five years from that day. We had to cut pictures and stuff to make a collage and put it in a 1/8 illustration board. Very highschool, *mumbles* Christians. This was what I came up with:

After five years, hopefully.

  • I didn’t have enough materials with me when I was making it because most of our old magazines were either thrown out or sold to junk shops. The only ones left were the ones in my room which was bought years ago. I remember having those back when I was still in grade school.
  • I am a huge fan of Elliott Yamin (E). I have been since his American Idol days, he was only able to take the third place but you know how talented people are. They still get through the industry. And I have such dislike for ‘artists’ who only cater to tweens using their faces as products. He has Diabetes and one of his ears is impaired. He made me want to be a singer more than how much I wanted to before I watched him.
  • There was a point in my confused adolescent life when I wanted to audition in a local singing competition, disregarding how crappy they are and disregarding how I am relatively less talented than most, and possibly make it and sing. I was deluded. But now that I think about it, that doesn’t seem to be a very bad idea. Hmm.
  • I think I am enjoying these bullets. This is the second time I posted an entry using them. :P
  • New York = Broadway. Someday I will go there to watch my favorite musicals no matter how much they will cost me. I am such a cliche. Of course I have to make money first. I just got inspired to perform a bank heist after writing this.
  • I love dancing. Or I love seeing other people dance.
  • Of course, everybody’s dream. Own a car. Do road trips, visit unsuspecting friends and ruin their Sundays. Go wherever like you have no work to get back to. Life is beautiful.
  • I have an interest in photography but photography hates me. When I get rich I will enroll in a photography class and finally learn how to click those buttons. Seriously, I never imagined it was that hard until I got close enough to a camera.
  • I always wanted to become a teacher. One of the reasons why I want to have my MA after a few years of graduation. I am not sure though if I will be a good one. You know how teachers are? Sometimes they know a lot but it doesn’t reflect in the classroom so the students sometimes think that their teachers are stupid? Well, I’m afraid I may be like one of them. :(
  • And of course, I wanted to do this eversince I learned how to write. Publish a book. Who wouldn’t want leaving a piece of one’s mind in this fucking world after one died?

+++++

It has been a year and I am still as broke as a well, typical Filipino. I hope four years would be enough for me to achieve all these.

How about you? In five years or so, how do you see yourself? What do you want to have? Go share. I’d be glad to hear from you after you put up with the crap I just wrote above. :)
