No worries. Today I've decided what I want to do when I grow up!

I am a student at the University of Waterloo studying Rhetoric and Professional Writing. (In my third year, I'd still tell you something different everytime you'd ask what that really means.) I love my family and my friends. I love reading and writing. (That's why I have a blog.) I love people with dreams, and I like dreaming with them. I want to feel like I'm moving forward, always. I love music (especially while I'm walking places), and silence too. I hope to always learn from my mistakes. And if you asked me to come and sit for hours in a small coffee shop and listen to people with great thoughts, I'd be there. I laugh a lot, and I cry when I need to. I don't know where I'll be in the next couple years, but in fifteen years if I live in an old house in the country with a cultural-caravan of adopted children, I won't complain. I like sleeping in. I like letters, downtown shops, farms, old houses, dresses, real (big) dogs, photographs, stories, art, beaches, and blue. Welcome to my blog, or some random thoughts.

ha... i've learned that, in my life, the pairing of "growing up" and "choosing a career" is more coincidental than intentional...
i'm a "grown up" (i think??) but i still don't know what i want to do when i grow up!
maybe we'll never know for sure... and maybe we'll never settle into one thing... but we'll just live life in seasons and get a taste of all our favourites! who knows?

Ya. I really like that idea.
Living in seasons.
Less stressful to just to be intentional about pursueing what your passionate about and see where it takes you. :)
Thanks for the comment!
