So I have set myself a goal. It's rather ambitious if I do say so. Ambitious yet achievable if I really want it. That goal is that by 2015 I will have visited the United States of America.
Call me crazy but I'm sick of waiting around feeling like nothing is happening for me and being stuck in Ireland is quite the pitfall in all of this. I've set myself this goal because who knows, maybe I might actually push myself to go for something I really want for once in my life. And that's the truth of it.

My ultimate goal is getting to live there, somehow. My preferred choice would be California but I think that's where everybody wants to be but no one actually gives a valid reason. Most of the reasons I've heard involve sun and celebrities. But what about everything else? What about the interesting and unique people you could meet there?


 What about the landscape and scenery, it's such a beautiful part of this globe and all people want to do is go there and celbe hunt, what gives? I've been dreaming of this since I was about six years old and honestly have no intention of ever giving it up. Even if it's just a visit I get, I'll make sure it's not a one time thing because how could you? I think if I ever somehow got there I'd never want to leave again. Ever.

So 2015 is my date as of now. It's the year I turn 21 and that's a big milestone for me, for anyone really. And I can't imagine waiting any longer to fulfil this goal of mine. So I will begin saving this year and hopefully by the time sumer of 2015 rolls around I'll have enough to jet off to my second home (or so it feels like). I could die happily then. No joke.
I would be quite happy with all I'd achieved if I had had the chance to visit California because that's all I've ever wanted out of life. A pretty simple wish, people fly back and forth across the globe every day, every hour, it shouldn't be as hard as it seems to me right about now. And that's a concept I can't seem to shake off.

I know I'm somewhat plodding along with everything I'm doing but I've never been so sure of something in my life, then I am about getting to America.

So here's to saving and scrounging and hopefully, to a summer 2015 to remember forever.
