I’m actually going to start this on the 21st of this month (October 2006)! I can’t believe I’m actually going to live by myself- I’m so excited I could pee my pants!

I’ve tried to learn in the past… shamefully bows head
My gracious teachers, John and Mr…something (college) were so nice and patient with me, but I keep giving up! It’s so difficult! I really think I just need a new guitar that takes plastic strings. The one I have right now is like 30 years old and it only sounds good with steel strings, but those things make my fingers literally bleed! The pain!
So, yeah…this one isn’t an immediate goal, just something I’d like to learn sometime in the next 20 or so years :)
I do want to get married! I want to get married when I’m ready to get married. I don’t want to rush it. I don’t want to force it. I don’t want to worry about an “expiration” date. I want to be married to a good man who will stick by me and support my dreams and I don’t want to succumb to the ‘woman behind the man’ syndrome. I want our support of eachother to be equal and to come from a pure place of love- not obligation. I also want to have kids. And I don’t want to feel like my career is going to be compromised because I should stay home. I want a husband who will want to share the responsibility of raising our children. And I don’t want to worry that he’ll want to trade up to a newer model when I turn 40.
