For me, it's the day that my son or daughter challenges me to a game of skill and/or cunning, and wipes the floor with me. I'll feel like I've passed the torch on to a new generation.

When I land my first teaching job...
I can't wait to get my certification!

I'd like to publish a book. It's the only thing thats kept me in this world for a long time. oh, and get an A in philosophy and ethics, I have to have a realistic dream don't I?

Yeah, you're right, book first, I'd only get an A if I had a blind examiner.

mmm, my one desire is to spend eternity with the one i love. mmmm, yeah, you know who you are

At the moment. Getting really good tickets to the David Bowie concert thats coming up in feb.

In life, him I dunno I think the moment the I manage to figure what I really want to do with the rest of my life might be a good one.

That's a very difficult question to answer really as I don't know where I'll be ten years in the future. At the moment, I'm just looking forward to eventually moving in with my boyfriend and settling down into every day life. Very mundane.
I really couldn't imagine me having children at all. Plus, My other half isn't a large fan of chilren anyway. We're planning on getting a cat and a brown sofa.

Oh god, I've just read that and I sound like I have very low standards in life. That's not true. I'd like to be the best me I can possibly be. I'm just very easy to please once contented. give me pajamas, a cup of tea and a cuddle and I'm as happy as Larry.

very nice... i'd almost agree...

but i am still looking towards several things....

1. the ocean, a steel drum, a smoke..... ah, jamaica.

2. the smell of stagefright, a new drama, the ruffle of a program.... ah, london...

and the last and unattainable:
3. the first time i get recognition (for real) for my music. not some lame contest, or an open mic...

my dad went to see him a couple of weeks ago, said he was kickass

anyway, i look forward to the day i meet a girl i get on really well with, is single and likes me in that way (yanno)....but until then, i'd be chuffed with one of those double 'ard kilo-watt microwaves that makes the food glow faintly green when it's cooked and you need a lead vest for (ok i exagerate a little...you don't need a lead vest)

I'd like to find someone to love. You know, the sort of person that you sleep with and you look forward to waking up just so you can see their face.

Either that or a dog. I'd be happy with either.

Eudaimonia. Why dream small?

how about a two-in-one deal?

Well, being Xian, the experience I look forward to most is Heaven.

But, on a non-religious basis, the experience I look most forward to is being with whoever happens to be the one for me. Right now there's someone who I think it might be, but I'm just a teenager so there's still the possibility it's just a crush. Besides we're not going out (hopefully a yet belongs in these parenthisis).

I would say finding iner unity, existing as one with himself. I beleive a famous samurai called it the void, and Nietzche calls it the child stage of life.

I look forward to the day when somehow, everything will finally click in my mind and I will understand everything I'm meant to do, if there is anything I should. I'm not sure how it will come to me, or when, or why, or from where, but when it strikes me that will be the biggest feeling of release and freedom i can hope for.

Until then, it looks like I'm wandering around waiting for my direction

I've just read that back and yes, I appreciate it's kind of ironic that the ultimate freedom I'm looking forward to is some binding task or path to move within, but I have no answers. let's just hope its a good path

So Furry, you beleive in fate and destiny?

Well, for me, it used to be the day I have sex. Now that that's over and done with, I look foreward to four things: 1) Getting married 2) Getting ordained 3) Having kids 4) Having one of my productions (mvie, play, book, animation) coming to fruition.

Either that or getting into a threesome. (j/k)

yeah sure

The day I finish high school and finally get the chance to leave this sad excuse for a country. I'm counting the days.

To go where? And which country would you be leaving?

I'd be leaving Singapore, where I've lived for more than 13 years now. I don't know where I'd go, but Canada is looking like the best option at the moment... particularly since I was born there but I haven't lived there since I was two years old.

Like ATD, spending eternity with the one I love.

Yeah, that's a bit corny and whatnot, but my priorities have gone to where that's first. It's become a bit of an obsession worryingly enough, but I'm comfortable knowing that some day it'll happen.

The day my building designs are built!!! Or my cartoons become famous. Or I get married. I don't know yet, so many possibilities...

What kind of buildings? What is your favorite architectual style?

I look forward to the only experience that can last. And that is experience of living, learning, growing. Unfortunately it's also the one I'm most afraid of. But I'ma show it up.

i look forward to that first morning, after spending one night in each others embrace and waking up with them still there.

THat's really sweet, Phoenix. Trust me, it's a great feeling to wake up in the arms of someone you love, even if it's at 4:20 in the morning when her mom barges in telling you to leave.

when the brush strokes come naturally
and
when the it all makes sense and I can commit myself to this world forever.

yeah... and when I have been with someone for 10 years and you still wake up tangled up with each other... and their leg doesn’t get heavy when you sleep at night.

*blushes* you can just keep your leg on top of mine....

well im joing the army soon sooo my passing out parade will proberly mean a lot to me

No, you're coming here, got it? Tch - Canada, really. You'd be wasted on that country.

That is a good one. I'm looking forward to that too. I only hope that I pick the right thing. Right now, people constantly ask me what I'm going to do when I get out of college. I hate having to tell them that I have no idea. I hate having no idea! Yep, knowing what I want to do with my life would definitely be something to look forward to.

And a house. Getting out of this blasted apartment building and getting a house. That I look forward to a lot.

Bah! She can come to Canada anytime!

Antagony don't bother with that water logged miserable little island off the coast of Europe, nothing comes out of there except mushy food, bad teeth and fog.

I think your also forgetting the reality tv they start. Werent they the ones that started such shows as temptation Island, Who wants to be a millionare, Big Brother. The singing Idol show, and other such things.

Besides The riots on Hockey nights are much funner in Canada. Already got me new riot gear for when the next winter olympics roles around.

Thats why I went with the David Bowie bit. Cant go wrong with that.

I agree with you. I think its the pressure of those qeustions that mkes it so hard. I'm still moving around in general sciences at the moment. There are just so many different things to do. And the wold is always changing, jobs are becoming obsolete in some areas. To much pressure I tell you.

Don't you try to steal Brett[e]. I saw her first!

Dying will be very interesting. Man, that's pretty morbid though.

I look forward to satisfying the litres of hormones flooding my circulatory system and losing my virginity.

the day i find a guy who knows how to handle/deal with me.

I'm looking forward to the day I wake up in his arms, as much in love as I was the night before, and he doesn't turn away when I kiss him with my morning breath.

*shudders* morning breath. it is not possible to love someone so much u love their morning breath too. lets not be silly.

Mushy food's the daddy! You clearly haven't a clue what you're talking about. Chips'n'mushy peas is one of the cultural delights of England, especially when you add a small pot of curry sauce and a liberal sprinkling of scraps.

Oh my god, that thought just made my mouth start watering like mad. Mmm.

See Antagony? See?!

Come to Canada. It's got snowmobiles, lovely scenery, you already speak the language, there's no Tony Blair, lots of lakes, nice people, pretty money, three whole oceans, it's the second largest country in the world, Edmonton has 3 submarines in a mall and Halifax has a giagantic tongue in it's harbor! Then you can sing "We come from the land of the ice and snow" and really mean it!

wow! canada sounds like a great place jaq! you've got me convinced, i'm moving there as soon as... wait! i already live here! and it is great. back bacon, smarties, wearing socks with sandals, healthcare, people who are so polite that they will say excuse me when you bump into them, the northern lights, and the most damn beautiful sunsets on the planet!

sure winter sucks big time, but without it we wouldn't have the word "toque"! and you got to admit, toque is a very fine word indeed.

also, you'd think commie would like it here in saskatchewan- it's so socialist!

anyway, to unhighjack the thread, i think the one thing i want out of life is a comfortable retirement. no worries, no obligations. like being a kid again, only wiser and with your own house. and hopefully ailments.

I'm looking forward to the time when I can have my own family. Partner and kids. Ought to be fun...
