Where and What would I be 10 years from now?

:D:D:D
Where and what would you be 10 years from now? I'm just curious...:idea:


--------

[wilbur lim]

The word 'where' should be omitted for it does not befits your doubt.
I intend to be a Literature teacher.

[eyemaker]

Why wilbur?
I guess both can be answered.. The important thing is both queries can be answered through envisioning themselves in the future.

[sprinks]

This is a hard question... I'll be turning 26 then. If you'd asked me a few months ago I'd say that I'd be married to my boyfriend or at least engaged, and working in the media industry, possibly on this side of the country, but soon to be moving to the other side. But people change... and so a lot of things have changed this past week and now, in 10 years, while I still hope that those things I just said will still happen, right now I'm just focusing on graduating high school. In 10 years, I might be working in the media industry, as a teacher, or counsellor. No idea where I'll be though. Most likely in Australia still though.

[InspireMe]

10 years from now...

realistically i'd probably still be in America as a teacher, counselor, psychologist and happily married.
what i dream about is traveling all around the world as a travel writer or something 'international studies' related.

[Niamh]

Well i'd like to hope than in 10 years time i'd be a published Author or at least working in the industry, living in a nice detached house, with a beautiful garden in the outskirts of the city, married to a nice guy who makes an effort, and maybe one or two kids.

Where:

Number 1
London
SW1A 1AA

"What" is obvious from the address, I guess.

Sweet! :D *bows to Scher*
might as well get the practice in! :p

[Scheherazade]

Sweet! :D *bows to Scher*
We are amused!

[qspeechc]

With a Phd. That's all. Althought it as a pretty big 'all'.

[Nossa]

I 'hope' that in ten years I'll be a mother, a literature professor in college, and a published writer. I know, wishful thinking lol, but yeah, that's what I wanna be. As for where I wanna be, I don't know, I've always wanted to live in London or Dublin.

[InspireMe]

Oh yeah I forgot I would like to be a published writer as well! I've always wanted to write a book......

[barbara0207]

Easy - I'll be right here in my house in front of my computer (whatever it may look like then) and I'll be litnetting because I'll be a pensioner and have a lot more tim for that then! :D

[kilted exile]

I would happily be where I am now in 10years time. I would like to have a partner & maybe one kid by that time but I dont see it on the horizon - if not I'll probably considering taking in foster kids.

[Virgil]

All I know is that in ten years I will be 56. :bawling: Probably things will not be very much different. But then they might. :D

[cipherdecoy]

I would be 26 and probably, hopefully, working as a journalist.

Interesting! I've been thinking about that.

[aeroport]

A father. :)

[cipherdecoy]

A father. :)

Aww:D

[aBIGsheep]

My gravestone will read:
"Guns blazing,
child in hand,
and fierce of heart,
down to the bowels,
did dear Todd depart."

Where:

Number 1
London

Pssst - Scher! No 1 London is (or used to be) Apsley House so you'd be .....

The Duchess of Wellington?

Do you really want to live in a house with a nude statue of Napoleon at the top of the stairs? :D

(But your country house will be nice - Stratfield Saye - you'll have a swimming pool in the conservatory and a lovely library. Can I come and visit please?)

Thought Number 1 was the Buckingham Palace. I have nothing to show for this claim, apart from a vague recollection from my Prep days at university. There was a text about the Royal Family and the palace in one of our reading books and it was mentioned there that the Palace was number one on Buckingham Palace Rd and known as "Number 1, London". Of course, that was years and years (and some more years) ago so my memory might be playing one of its usual tricks on me.

[Niamh]

i though it was buckingham too.

[Desert Rose]

i'll be 30 then um-hm hard to say i m trying to live a day by day so i can clear my mind ,,,

[Niamh]

I googled the addy and google told me no.1 london is Buckingham palace.

[kasie]

:D - I googled Apsley House and got the same address - No 1 London! Must be some confused postmen round there!

I had it in my mind that Apsley House, or the site on which it was built, was No 1 because it was the first house near the original marker from which distances from London were measured - though I think that may be Hyde Park Corner these days, up the road a bit - but apparently it was because it was the first house you came to after the Toll Gate on Kensington Road which showed you were within the boundary of London (?City of Westminster in those days). When Wellington's London pied a terre (:)) was built Buck House was just that - Buckingham House - and although it was a royal property, it didn't become Buckingham Palace until later when Victoria rebuilt and renovated it. (Did a very nice colour scheme of white and gold - thought of doing the same in my own stately home but thought it might be a bit OTT...)

Either way - please may I come and visit? I am completely house trained and have nice table manners and I don't smoke.

[Pensive]

If it turns out the way I want it to be then an engineer enjoying life as a happy single, travelling around occasionally.

Or

If it turns out the way I don't want it to be then a highschool drop-out, married to a religious fundamentalist, housewife, listening to mother-in-law's abuses. Or well something of this sort.

Or

If it turns out how I feel is most probable seeing that I feel quite old already, perhaps dead lying in some graveyard.

[Scheherazade]

Either way - please may I come and visit? I am completely house trained and have nice table manners and I don't smoke.Please do! We will be most pleased!


PS: OK, I think I am spending too much with Tal! :p

Thank you - you are too gracious.



(btw - does the current Occupant know of your intentions? You wouldn't evict an old lady in her nineties - as she will be then - who will have been a sitting tenant for sixty years? Would you? :))

[Nyu001]

This is something I would like to know. But I will just need to wait for see where will I be and what will I be doing in ten years. At the moment the only choice I/us have is to predict it. And to see if will be as we thought it or planned it.

[djy78usa]

Ten years from now (assuming the Aztecs were wrong, and the world hasn't ended) I will have completed my J.D. degree, with a focus on Constitutional Law, and my M.A. in Political Science. I will still be in the army, but will be preparing for my retirement from the service (15 years from now) and looking for another job within the government (maybe even something elected?). I assume I will settle down and find a wife within the next ten years (to my mother's endless delight) and might even have a kid or two.

[Annamariah]

In ten years I'll be 30 years old.
I'm almost sure that by then I have graduated from university and worked as a translator for five or six years. I'll probably live in Helsinki (I'm moving back in one year and I have no intention of moving away again unless I have to).

I really hope that within those ten years I'll manage to find a husband and have a child or two (and later maybe more).

Most probably I'll just end up living all alone (with hundreds of books) in the two-room apartment I'm going to buy after I graduate.
