what i want

recently, in school, we had to answer some questions about ourselves for a project. one of them was "what do you plan on doing with your future life when you graduate from school?" that got me thinking. (i know, inspiration in the strangest places, huh?) what do i want with my life? i came up with quite a few answers, but chose the first.
the way i defined that question, it has two meanings; a) a profession & such, or b) how you want your life to continue & such.
here are some of my answers --

++   i want to be a photographer. it seems the "latest stuff" to be a photographer. but i truly love photography. yes, i know, i'm certainly not the best, and i've got a lot to learnbut isn't it that way in life? how there's always more to learn?

++   i want to learn more about designing. designing fascinates me, and i have always dreamed of being one. maybe one day...

++   i want to be a role model. seriously. i want to be someone whom people look up to and wish to be like; yet not someone who people become jealous of.

++    i want to serve God in every way and glorify His name in the best way that i can. i want to also be down-to-earth and normal, to show people that one can serve God, yet also be fun, etc. i don't want to be embarrassed about thisi want the whole world to know about it, on the contrary.

++   i want to be happy. simple as that.

my weekend


i had an awesome weekend - filled with pillow fights, games, late nights, ghost stories, and blueberry pancakes. i woke up to the sound of laughter floating from the kitchen. i got up and slipped on my robe. when i came downstairs to the usually dull house, there was my dad, trying unsuccessfully to flip a pancake. i started my day with pancake batter on my nose.
the rest is history. awesome history.

family time officially rocks.

who'm i kidding...
they've gone, behind my back.
whispered, laughed,
in my face
they don't care
they don't think 
i have feelings
it wouldn't matter
either-way.
they hate me, it's clear.
it is written
on their faces
their eyes shoot daggers at me
why?
what did i ever do
to make them despise me so
how they look down
at me
as if 
i'm nothing but a small
ant
doing everything, all the work
only to be laughed at
by the lazy grasshoppers.
they're traitors, no less.
fine.
let them
go
