Lately all I've done is fantasize about my future and everything that it holds. Here are a few of my goals and dreams for the future.

• I just changed my major to journalism!!- This is the second time I've changed my major and about the 900th time I've changed my mind. This time I think it's going to stick, though. I've always tried to pick a major or a dream that was convenient. Finally I've picked something I actually want to do- something I can be excited about. And even though this isn't as concrete and secure, I can't shake this feeling of confidence.
• I can't wait to marry Ryan Vincent Kenney.- There is no doubt in my mind that Ryan is the one for me. God has continued to confirm this fact constantly throughout Ryan's and my relationship. I'm sure I will list about that later.
• I WANT TO BE DONE WITH SCHOOL.- I don't know what possessed me to think that college would be the highlight of my life? Dude, why would anyone condemn themselves to that belief?! There is SO MUCH MORE. This is just preparation. I want a family and a husband and a home and a job. I want to travel and see the world. I want so much more than what is college. Goodness. Right now I live in a tiny dorm room filled with a bunch of RA's that insist that I "sign in" every visitor. I'm sorry, but I pay a CRAP LOAD to live in this jail cell... if I want to have a friend over, I will, and they will stay as long as they like. Oh, and you are CRAZY if you think I'm signing them in. Ok, I'm off my tangent now. Thanks.
• Someday I will live in Nashville. Legit Nashville. Not a puny suburb.- When I graduate from MTSU my perfect life would look like this: I'd still be with Ryan (hopefully planning a wedding 'wink wink'). I'd live in a loft in Nashville and I'd work for some sad little newspaper or for an online writing system. I would have a popular blog. I just can't wait for life. I can't wait to be fresh on my feet. I actually can't wait to struggle- to work hard and to work my way up and to live off of thrift store furniture and clothes. That life so appeals to me.
• I'll be a mama... eventually.- Obviously it'll be a while before I reach that goal, but I've always wanted to be a mom. I can't wait until that day comes. I always imagine myself teaching my children things and singing to them and filling their lives with music, laughter, adventure, personality, color, and creativity. If none other of my dreams come true but my one to have children, I will feel like the most blessed person on earth.
• I can't wait to see Ryan shine.- Ryan will always shine to me, but I can't wait until he is recognized for his incredible talent. I can't wait to stand next to him at the end of the day and say, "It all paid off." He works so hard to song write and to improve his voice and guitar. There is no doubt in my mind that this is what God has intended Ryan to do. I can't wait to see him doing what I believe he was put on this earth to do. Make (beautiful, creative, intelligent) music.
