Dreams and "Super Dreams"

Everyone talks about what your dream is, but what's your "Super Dream"?

Dreams and "Super Dreams"

I feel the need to start this off my pointing out that I think about my future a lot in a very realistic manner. I aspire to be a writer, but I don't trust it to give me income so I'm making sure to not focus entirely on writing. I want to be a writer but I don't expect to be published quickly. I try my best to be realistic and, sometimes, brutally so.

Of course I have my own dreams and aspirations. As I mentioned I want to be a writer, but not any writer, a fantasy one. That is my main dream, the major goal I've centered my life around.

Yet I have a dream that goes beyond the other one. A dream that assumes I find success and assumes things go the way I want. That dream, which breaks away from my trend of being brutally realistic, is to write a piece of Fantasy fiction that will give fantasy recognition as worthy of literary study.

It is an impossible dream perhaps. And I may not even have the capability to accomplish such a momentous task. But if the chance arises, I would put myself through the fire to make that dream come true. That is what I think of as a "Super Dream".

It is something so impossible and so absurd that I can't plan for to ever become a reality. But I can hope and seize the opportunity when I'm given the chance to do something far beyond myself. It may be impossible, but nobody ever accomplished the impossible by calling it as such.

I hope everybody keeps a realistic perspective on their future, but I also hope that nobody loses sight of the dream that defies reality because even if it isn't realistic, there is always a chance.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
