Default Your hopes and dreams?
We all had hopes and dreams when we were younger - we were going to be this, do that, invent the other - most of which, I would imagine in most cases, did not come true.

I of course believed I would be a successful writer by now, earning a living by the power of my creativity. BUZZ! Didn't happen.

Thought I'd own either a car or a motorbike. BUZZZ! Didn't happen.

Expected to have my own place. Sort of technically do, but not really as it's still the parents' house and I'm here with Karen.

I also thought at some point I would emigrate, and intended to retire to the Cotswolds. BUZZZ! Didn't happen.


So how about you?

MB, the land of internet strangers' hopes and dreams. If I could have realised my dreams I'd be the vocalist of a punk band called Emergency Tampon lol

I thought I'd be a journalist traveling across the globe at this point in my life. Instead I'm working a soul sucking desk job. Probably making a bit more money this way though.

I guess that's something.

Also I would def listen to a band called Emergency Tampon.

You still have time to make your dream come true.

I know, I haven't completely given up on it. It's just in a back drawer in my mind somewhere and knowing myself the chance that it'll happen is about 0.3%

I just wanted to be left alone to play. Pretty much what I'm doing.

Is this only about unfulfilled hopes and dreams? One I'm still pursuing is being able to grow my own food and weed.

You still have time for change before your soul is fully sucked. They almost got mine.

Indeed. Journalism is cool, you could even start out by doing it on the side at first maybe, if you want financial stability.

All I ever wanted is for someone on the internet to admit I won an argument. Maybe one day...
