In five years I'll be 24 (eek!). In an ideal world, I'd have got over the whole SI thing, would have found some way to move to new zealand, and would have a secure job that I enjoyed, a partner, a dog or two and an icelandic horse. Not likely to happen, but you know what they say, its better to aim high...

In 5 years time, I'll hopefully:

1) Be sober - because I never want to have to do rehab again.
2) Own my own home or condo instead of renting
3) Be in a healthy relationship
4) Like myself more than I do now.
5) Play the harp well enough to justify going into debt to buy a concert grande pedal harp - a Lyon & Heally style 100 specifically.

5 Years time...I'll be forty. FORTY!!!

I'll still be in VFX (It's amazing the difference having a fun job makes to my life.)
I'll have a flat (I expect I'll still be single and a whole house would be extravagant) in London - Maida or Hampstead - or here in Bristol.
I'll have the same good friends I have now.
I'll have made it to Antarctica just once.
I'll have loads of prints by Vettriano, Hopper, Spain, Titchner, Elmore, Rothko and Mondrian.
I'll drum when I'm down (but just as badly as ever)

I'll remember SI and depression as small unhappy things in an otherwise unremarkable life.

in 5 years I will be 22. Hopefully I will be at a good college pursuing something I want to do for the rest of my life (probably graphic design--nothing's written in stone though). SI free...but still on bus to help others. At a healthy weight and still at least going to occasionall weight watchers meetings. Living in an apartment, finally away from my mother...and, if I may include my greatest wish...hopefully in a relationship of some kind with a person I love.

In five years I will be 26.

Ideally I'll be graduated from law school for about a year. And I'd have a job prospect. I'd also be somewhere that isn't here.

Cassandra · Post by **Cassandra** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 6:46 pm

In five years, I'll have been two years out of college with a double major in film production and theater design. I'll be living in LA (my fiance graduates one semester ahead of me and is moving first) and, HOPEFULLY, have a job by then, but it's Hollywood, so who knows?

. Wish we could have our own studio. Might be married. More than likely just get a common law marriage for the tax breaks. So much more but dreaming blows.

i will have found some dreams to hold on to.
and maybe someone to hold on to me.

In 5 years, I'll be 22. Ideally, I'd be in a stable relationship with a nice guy, have learned how to play guitar and maybe be in a band! Also, I'd have a lip piercing. But most importantly, in five years hopefully I'll have more experience with life instead of living in the protected, rich environment of my school. Oh, and not feel like an outsider.

Dream on, honey

Licentia Poetica · Post by **Licentia Poetica** » Tue Sep 05, 2006 4:06 am

I'll be in my last year of uni.

I'll be able to speak French fluently (trilingual go me)

I'll hopefully have some sort of label started.

I'll be and feel loved by someone special.

I will no longer struggle with depression every day. That's not to say I will be free of it. But on a good day, I won't even think about it anymore.

* Me and D will be talking about having our first baby by then.

* I'll Be Happy.

red umbrellas · Post by **red umbrellas** » Mon Sep 11, 2006 4:59 am

I'll be 25.

So I'd like to be married and loved - by the most amazing man in the world whoever he may be.
I will be thinking of having children soon...but probably not right away.
I will have written my first novel-maybe published.
I will have a circle of close, caring, fun friends.
I will have a home full of books and cds and prints of old travel posters.
I will have a job I love, and don't mind going to each day.

I will feel secure and happy...more often than not.

And so that's what I hang in for, day after day...the hope for all this.

In 5 years I'll be 30
* stopped being weird & able to open up to people & let them get close to me
* playing music - a lot of it - and not needing the dole in between!
* either back with J. (unlikely) or with someone just as wonderful (even more unlikely! Might have to settle for less on this one!!)

Not_what · Post by **Not_what** » Thu Oct 05, 2006 10:24 am

In 5 years, I'd be 25 - scary!

I'd have my own house, either with friends or with a boyfriend
I'd be a world class playboater
I'd live somewhere other than England - pref. Australia
I'll have been to disneyland!

Oh dear, this thread has made me realise I don't have any goals! I think I'll just go with the flow
