Build a v8 944
Start a business with my silly beer making
Travel to Europe
Own a house farther in the country so I can has a siqqq dirt track in my huge amount of land yo.
Own a large boat so I can spend many nights on it lol
Over all I want to make sure my wife and kids are happy and well taken care of.
and i just want to:
-own investment properties
-get my bachelors degree, maybe masters
-the whole wife thing
-Whatever money i make during life use it to provide for my family and give them the most enjoyable experience they can have
Have fun and live comfortably. However this comes about is fine with me.
Oh boy. There is so much I wanna do.
- Travel the world. Germany and Australia being the main countries right now. So far I’ve been to England, and I’m going to Guatemala in May/June.
- Get my Bachelor’s and Master’s.
- Move out of Buffalo in the next year or so.
- Become multilingual. So far I have a bit of French and I’m taking Spanish now.
- Be a singer in a band.
- Learn to fly a plane. My grandfather and uncle both own their own planes so this might happen soon if I move to Texas…
- Get my motorcycle license. Probably this summer.
- Drive on the autobahn.
- One day make enough money to support my dad so he would be able to live without stress and not be in pain all the time.
- I guess do that thing that involves rings, dresses, expensive food, flower girls, and a new last name.
- Get breast implants. And a nose job. My nose has been broken way too many times. I need to get that fixed soon, I’m just too scared. Haha.
Ill think of more later. Too much to type on my phone.
Many peoples with many lofty goals. I wish you all good luck in attaining them.
If there is one thing I have learned in all of my triumphs and epic failures is that no matter what happens barring being dead each day will come. So long as you have air, water, food and shelter you will survive.
Materialism and materialistic things don’t bring true happiness, and although true happiness is subjective, I say this because most of that stuff serves to tie you down and trap you to the point that they may begin to own you. When that happens traveling and experiencing life for the simplicity it is becomes very difficult. Seeing the big picture or the forest from the trees becomes harder and harder.
As for me.
- Out of monetary and personal debts.
- Much more education
- Travel, not just traveling to a resort destination but travel the journey, experiencing and seeing things you would not have seen on a daily basis in the humdrum of everyday routine. This summer I plan to Kayak the entire Erie Canal and back.
- Finish my motorcycle.
- Have many different avenues of income that filter in to support my ass so I don’t have to work. While drinking during the day is over rated, knowing that you can if you like is not.
- Some property to tie me down to as a cheap home base. House, garage, missile silo etc. I want to live off the grid because I can.
- Simple life
- Spiritual Enlightenment. Perfect harmony within myself and world I exist in.
- Learn the philosophy and art of Jeet Kune Do.
- Someone to share it with, happiness is only real when shared.
:tup::tup::tup: to someone that gets it. Notice how my list doesn’t contain anything materialistic.
x2, (for the most part.) I could have listed 473845 cars that I wanted, and typed up my dream home, but I don’t need those things to enjoy life.
Well, yeah, sure, but I take all my life changing cues from QVC hosts.
seriously: I’d like to publish research that is valuable.
Within the next 1-1/2 to 2 years:
-Leave Buffalo/New York and never look back.
-Land a job teaching in a great school district.
Within 5 years:
-Secure my position with tenure
-Purchase my first home
-Get married
Life-long goals:
-Spend as much time as possible being happy/stress free
-Be happily married
-Actually make a difference in kids lives.
*I know ton of people say they “wanna change a person for the better”, but I have the opportunity and ultimately the responsibilty to directly affect the lives of our future generation. I hope to reach out to even a percent of the students that will pass through my classroom, I want them to know that life is full of opportunities and they are not stuck living in one spot doing one job.
-Besides living happily, I hope to be a good father at some point and a role model for others.
Ultimately, I just want to experience life, it comes and goes so quick and I don’t want to waste a single moment of it.
:tup: Always take that responsibility seriously. It’s sad to see schools with teachers that just don’t give a fuck.
On a sidenote, I could totally see you getting in shit for making out with one of your 13 year old students.
I’ve always had amazing teachers, especially in my content area, and I would love to take after them. I want to constantly be learning and growing as an educator and never fall into the “same lesson, same unit every year” routine.
Word to Carnut.
I will admit my list after I graduated college was a bit materialistic. I felt that I had worked so hard in college that I deserved to treat myself…well 5 years later I realized that all these things that I bought/built I really don’t need anymore. I think I tried to grow up to fast…and forgot how to live life. That’s changed since then, but it’s a bit of an uphill climb now to figure out the new chapter, pack the bags, and move on to something greater.
Make mad Chedda, get all the bitches, have the biggest rims in ma hood
+1
The materialistic stuff sure does help along the way though
Hm mine wasn’t material either although the garage could be kinda.
As far as what people say though I do firmly believe that material things bring some happiness but however some people are just better at being happy with what they have(as they should be). I see nothing wrong with people striving to have some really cool stuff though.
Mine isn’t really material, per se, but moreso having enough money to just do what I want and pay someone else to do what I don’t.
Material items that allow you to pursue a hobby are never bad.
money isn’t a material? not saying your goals are bad, just wanted to point that out.
Wanting material things certainly isn’t bad. But striving to obtain a specific possession as a life goal could easily lead you down the wrong path. As much as I want to buy a super nice car, owning and driving it would not be nearly as fulfilling as doing the things that are on my list. That’s all.
And I didn’t mean to imply that carnut was the only one who gets it lol. I’m liking these lists guys. :tup:
I just want to live comfortably with someone I love and raise healthy children.
I don’t want a job where I dread going into work and I generally want to be the best at what I do.
I’d like to work for myself someday and have a bunch of really good friends.
I hope I never get fat and I always stay this god damned good looking.
I’d like to spend a summer on a boat in the ocean.
I’d like the opportunity to celebrate my father’s 90th birthday with him.
