When Procrastination Strikes: The American Dream

Well it’s official Joshua has started calling my place “home”. Guess it is time to start dropping hints about which engagement ring I want (rose gold, round morganite, pave diamonds all the way around the band), planning our wedding (fall, vineyard, dip dyed dress, and sunflowers), designing our house (stained concert floors, a glass retractable wall, huge green backyard, and a walk in closet), and picking out baby names (Ezra Owen, Madeline Ryan, and Isadore Ansley). His family is genetically predisposed to have boy babies, just look at his family tree, it’s brimming over with them, and I got this information from a good source (his mom). Well damn it looks like I already have everything figured out, honestly, it’s the procrastination.

The last week of April is finals week, but in the mean time I have an impossibly long list of things to accomplish before starting on that monster. Let me enlighten you! In Spanish I have plenty of homework left to do, an oral exam, a composition, and the final. All that is left for Maya Art and Culture is a research project and the final. Post Impressionism and Surrealist art is a similar story with a paper assignment and the final being the last little bit I have left to do. It doesn’t seem to bad, but I also work 40 hours a week because not everyone can live off of their parents dime. Anyway, less about the procrastination and more about our future plans.

So our most immediate goal is for me to finish my bachlors degree, graduate, and more to where he is in Fort Lauderdale. My personal goal after moving is to pay off all of my student loans so that I can go back to school for Interior Design and consequently build up some more student loans. The joys of being a perpetual student. In the long term I do not want to bring debt into the next phase of our relationship, but marriage would become a viable option after 25 and kids after 30. This is starting to sound a little like the American dream. Time to spice it up…ehh maybe next time, I have a lot of studying to do!
