Radvent Day 11: Dreaming

Finally, a post that's actually on the day it's supposed to be! Today's prompt:

What is your personal dream? What would happen if your dream came true?


I'm pretty sure that anyone that knows me knows that my dream is to become a teacher. Right now, I'm 5 semesters away from it and that feels pretty good, but also pretty scary. I have to finish this degree first, and I need to be admitted into the Education Program before I can really start celebrating. I would be very happy if this personal dream would come true. Ideally, I would be back at Abby Christian teaching Biology, as well as Chemistry and/or History. That's my very far off dream, I'm not foolish enough to think that it will happen right away. Unless I can convince Mr. Bakker to retire in 2013, lol. But I still hope to be able to head back to the Fraser Valley once I'm done and teach somewhere in that area.

It's kind of funny how when I was younger I felt I was stuck in Abbotsford and I couldn't wait to get out of that city, but now that I've been away, my heart longs for it all the time. I guess there really is no place like home :) It's just such a beautiful place, and I miss it all the time. Especially when I'm buried under 3 feet of snow and it's -40C outside here in Edmonton... lol. I miss the mountains, I miss the beautiful prairies, I miss the rain, I miss how green it is all year long. I can't wait to be back there for a couple weeks for Christmas. Only 8 days til I get to be home for a short while :) I can't wait.
