An excellent start, thankyou my wishers! I appreciate the time you took to help me with this.
Now, I want to start giving you all ideas for wishes - post as many times as you can think of something! And remember to keep in mind hopes and dreams as well. I'll try and do this once a week. I figure if I say it *out loud* it might actually happen. I think I'm up to 50 or 60 stars so far - which is pretty good but far from a thousand. I'm going to start posting pictures of my progress and process so you can see what I'm up to.
This week I want you to think about jobs. What is your dream job, the thing you want to be when you grow up? Did you just put in for a raise, or a promotion? Is there a position opening up that you desperately want? Is there a life long goal you're working towards?
Tell me all about it. Or post another wish entirely that has nothing to do with jobs - just post something. And remember, it's totally anonymous.
I wish I didn't have to sell my Harry Potter DVDs to help swing my rent check this week. On the other side of that coin, I wish my job offered living wages.
ReplyDeleteI dream that one day I'll be a half way decent actor.
ReplyDeleteI hope acting will always make me as happy and accomplished as it does right now.
I wish that other people would give me the shot to prove myself.
I wish I had a talking narwhal that I could ride around and we'd go around to different aquariums and perform tricks for the circus or something and people would be so amazed that they'd just hand me money so I wouldn't have to work, and everything would go swimmingly well (pun totally intended).
ReplyDeleteOther than the narwhal, I wish I was more adept at my chosen career rather than feel like a complete moron everytime I went to work.
I wish I was able to write the story I've had in my head since my senior year of high school so that my niece would have a proper, badass, and female literary character to look up to.
You can write the story.
ReplyDeleteBut you have to sit down and actually DO it. Creative work is just like your day job only a lot more fun.
So, no excuses. Sit down, put fingers to keyboard and start creating. And the really amazing thing is that you never know where the work will lead you.
If I can do it, you can do it. Get busy. :)
When I was younger, I always wished for the type of job that would result in me getting thank you cards written in crayon. Now that I have it, I simply wish it paid enough to live on.
ReplyDeleteI also want to go back to school because I love learning and know ill be ready to move on shortly, despite how much I love all the kids.
I wish I had health insurance. I wish I was compensated for the extra work I do. I wish I had a new car. I wish I had a job in my passion, not in my hobby. I wish we had a.c. at work.
ReplyDeleteI wish my ex wasn't a fuck up. I wish I stayed in college longer. I wish I wasn't socially awkward. I wish my friends wanted to hang out with me. I wish I was smarter. I wish I could paint. I wish I could sing. I wish the most important life lessons weren't the most painful. I wish I got paid for my photography. I wish I had nicer hair. I wish I didn't have leg hair. I wish I had a real bed. I wish I had more confidence. I wish I wasn't in debt. I wish my parents could build their new house. I wish I was more active. I wish guys would tell me if theyre interested. I wish I was with my ex, despite him being a fuck up. I wish I ate more meat. I wish I hung out with my roommates more.
I wish I still hung out with people from highschool because I remember being so happy then and with them, but that was probably due to being so damned oblivious to anything else. I also wish I could make everyone some fudge, especially Sadieight, because chocolate done right does make things better if only for a brief moment. I wish I could be content with life's small pleasures instead of seeking out the large ones and failing miserably. I wish I were more socially apt than I am now and capable of having an argument without bursting into tears, although that may be due to PMS right now than anything else.
ReplyDeletei dreamt that i was pregnant. i wish that wasn't a nightmare. i hope that one day if i ever want to get pregnant, i can.
ReplyDeleteAbout a month ago my brother was in a very serious motorcycle accident. He was in a coma for a week and a half. He’d had some very serious head trauma and we almost lost him. Now he is out of the coma and can talk again, but his brain is still swollen and healing. He’s not really himself at all. He gets confused sometimes and he forgets things. And there’s a lot of things he just doesn’t know anymore. It’s a bit heartbreaking talking to him because it’s almost like talking to a child sometimes. If could have only one wish, I would wish that he makes a full recovery and that I could have my big brother back. I miss him so much.
ReplyDeleteIf I could have two, I'd wish to be pregnant also. We've been trying for almost a year now with no luck and I'm starting to worry. I want the little girl I saw in my dreams.
