I'm witnessing time-passing at its best. Until my Summer holidays, this is what still has to happen:

1. Portuguese presentation on Tuesday;

2. Psychology test next Thursday;

3. John Mayer concert on May 21st <3;

4. History and English test the next week;

5. Miley Cyrus concert on May 29th <3;

6. Portuguese test the week after that;

7. Seven to eleven days of intense studying;

8. Portuguese exam on the 16th, English exam on the 19th, History exam on the 21st;

9. One week with my friends at the beach;

10. Find out the exam results on July 8th;

11. Apply for Universities the day after that.

Then I'm done. After all this, high school is over and I'm on holidays. Ready to - hopefully - go to Italy. I'll be in Uni *crosses fingers* two months after that. I won't be able to see the majority of the people I saw every day for three years. I'm extremely glad I decided to be brave and start high school with a clean slate, in a different school where almost everyone in my old school went to. Clean slates are an amazing feeling, and doing that for yourself, even if it's hard at first, is totally worth it.

And now for Uni, I'm not going to be the shy girl. I'm going to have fun and meet people right at the beginning so I wouldn't be the weird girl in the corner who doesn't talk to anyone. Not that I ever was like that. Not all the time, anyway, only in the beginning. Anyway, MAKING NEW FRIENDS is the key. I can't wait, but I still wish I was six again.

BEDA #20 - Dreams

Dreams. Where do I start? In general, I want to be happy, successful and have people to share all that with. I'm already a very happy person, I get along with (mostly) everyone I meet and since I'm in high school I've learned to put all the drama aside and start over, see new faces and be in a new place and I couldn't be happier as to how it turned out.

1. I want a career in fashion journalism or in post-production. The latter is something I really love to do, but I'm afraid it's only a hobby and can't mix it up with what may be my future job. I would love to be involved in cinema, but I'm honestly too afraid. You have to be so talented and lucky. I've decided to treat it as a sort of second job or plan B. Sometimes I start thinking and I feel like I don't want to go into fashion journalism. Or journalism at all. I haven't quite figured that out yet. Sometimes I want to be a hippie, learn how to play guitar and live on a constant road trip.

2. I want to travel, travel, travel my heart out. I want to visit as many countries as possible and have an external drive filled with photographs. I won't bore you with traveling anymore, seeing as this post really sums it up.

3. I want to find love. But I don't think it's time for that now. At least I don't want to. All my life I've seen myself being or imagining myself with someone by my side, but somehow I've been developing a fear of commitment. I'm very complicated around cupid's territory. I don't even know if I want a family. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

4. I want things. Call me materialistic, I'll agree with you. I want a nice house, nice IKEA furniture, nice clothes, books, movies, CDs, etc.

5. I want to live and work in New York, Paris and/or London. That would be a huge fulfillment in my life.

But damn, I'm about to turn eighteen, there's plenty of time to change my mind on all this and have different dreams. Life's a climb. But the view's great. Yes, that is a Hannah Montana: The Movie quote, so what? It's true. <3

Unrealistic dreams: I want to marry John Mayer, I want to be Miley Cyrus' friend, I want to be editor-in-chief of Vogue, I want to be a Hollywood actress, I want to be on America's Next Top Model, I want to cook with Jamie Oliver, I want to go to Hogwarts and to Narnia and many, many, many more things.

Until tomorrow!

Tomorrow's theme: Guilty Pleasures
