Set your goals, write your dreams

[moezychan]

I have another goal:

I want to quit self-mutilating myself once and for all. I did it when I was younger, and I was able to put a stop to it a year ago, but I started up again yesterday. I don't want to kill myself, thank God, but I do want to stop hurting myself once and for all.

I even have the motivation I need; my students at Sunday school. They help become stronger. Cheer me on minna, this goal is going to be hard because I still want to do it, and I've wanted to do it for a year now.

[Møon Li]

To publish a book of mine and have my own theatre

[AkaiYuki]

Oh, I just remembered!
I wanna study/work in Germany for a while! A year perhaps? Ah, Germany~

Ooh! Same here, but in Japan, instead! XD

[Tessaiga]

Ooh! Same here, but in Japan, instead! XD

I wanted that too at first, but then I thought I was too stupid to handle japanese school/workdays...

[Tooya_Mizuki]

I plan to go to Japan too to make my very own manga  .

You can do it, Moezy-chan. I know people with issues with similar things, and they seem to be doing alright, and their reaching his goals. You just have to work to get yourself into a place where you can feel comfortable.

XD Yeah, I've often worried about that, too... But then I realized I love Japan SO much, that even if I had to work every day the rest of my life with no breaks or anything just to live there, I'd still do it. No one who knows me in real life believes me, but it's true! I really have no passions in life except to one day live there, if even for a short time.

My only real worry about going there is not being able to get a job! XD

You can do it, Moezy-chan. My bro has issues with similar things, and he seems to be doing alright, and he's reaching his goals. You just have to work to get yourself into a place where you can feel comfortable.

Arigatou. Currently my comfort zone is college, and I don't go back until January 17th. For me it's still the 28th. 3 weeks. I always get depressed during breaks. I miss college, and I also have my Catechist classes that I teach, but that's not back until the 8th. I do stress myself out when I'm busy, but I hate it when I'm not busy. Staying busy keeps my mind off of hurting myself. When I don't have anything to do, I have too much time to think, and thinking is dangerous, because I always think of hurting myself.

I know what that's like. I don't hurt myself, but I tend to get into really big depressions when I feel like I'm being unproductive or when I have nothing to do. Even worse is when I'm busy with things that are fruitless (dumb gen ed classes, for example) and I have to spend all of my time focusing on things that don't help me, and even more to the point, don't help others. I always feel like it would be better to run away or die or something. I get spend too much time thinking about how stupid everything is and I put myself in a really dangerous place. I start sleeping all the time and fall behind in classes. This happens almost every year at the beginning of the schoolyear.

Since I know what the signs are, to keep myself sane when I start to get depressed (or when I AM depressed) I try to pick one event that I know is coming (even if I have to plan one myself) so that I can tell myself to keep going so that I can get there as a healthy happy person. This year it was my friend's annual New Years party.

GOAL: Have a kick-butt awesome time at Justine's party!

When I'd get depressed and start thinking really dark thoughts, I would read something meaningful, or watch a good show (often CCS) and tell myself that all I had to get through was so much time before Justine's party. And that got me to break.

Haha...I think I got a little off-track, but I guess all I'm saying is play hard and chin up, and remember there are people who love you (like me, even without knowing you ^_^ ) and always things to look forward to.

[Lillianna Megami]

[Time-Machine]

I have a new goals!

Pass my classes with good grades! Japanese especially! And learn a lot of Kanji!

-and-

Fill my new sketchbook with stuff that doesn't suck entirely!

-and-

Work on my writing! Especially my stories, which I need to finish! Included in this is a need to improve my spelling and vocabulary!

haha, the second one is never going to happen ^_^;;

[moezychan]

Great idea TimeMachine-chan! I'm going to like this thread!

I have 2 goals I want to achieve.

1) I want to get rid of my anemia. My blood count is currently at 10.7, and it's supposed to be between 12-15. My goal will be to keep up with my diet and bring my blood count back up so I will be a happy and healthy person!

2) This goal is even more important for me because I've worked so hard for it. My goal is to become an elementary teacher. I've gone to school for 4 years now, and it took 2 years of switching my major for me to decide what I really wanted to be. I've been persuing the dream of becoming a teach for 2 years now, and I have 2 more years.

So my goal is to maintain my average of a 3.0 because education majors cannot get below a 3.0 and bring it up to a 3.5 so I can make the dean's list and then obtain my Teaching Certificate, and become a 2nd grade teacher.

A little update on my goals. I went to the doctor today, and I'm no longer anemic! My blood count is now at 13.1! I'm now crossing that off the list! One down, two to go!

YAY!!! Congratulations, Moezy-chan! That's awesome!

Financial goals! I have to save my money for:

-Cellphone
My old cellphone takes about $5 each month, even if I don't do anything with it... Plus, it's old and... crappy. So I definately need a new one!
-Driving licence
...It costs a lot.
-Glasses
I think I need glasses too. >.< My eyes are just getting worse
-Computer
Me need it, me need! My mother is getting cräzy at me, sitting at her computer everyday...
-Nintendo Revolution
I'm a nerd. I need this... And I need it this year if Nintendo decides to release Zelda: Twilight Princess to Revolution instead of GameCube...

And for that, I need a job... I'll be looking! I'll work on weekends and holidays, since I still have my studies!

Wish me luck!

[Tooya_Mizuki]

I plan to get my drivers license, for that I must complete some necessary requirements  .
