In the next ten years...

In ten years I will be living in New York in a penthouse with my fiancé and bull dog named chomppers. I will also convince my best friend tiffany to move with me to New York instead of her going to live in Virginia. While my fiancé will also works during the day I will be working as either a psychiatrist or a lawyer. I haven’t decided yet but probably a psychiatrist. I know being a psychiatrist is not exactly most people’s first choice but I think it would be really cool to understand how the brain works and how people think. When I drive to work I won’t need a car until I move to California after I get married. I will just use taxis because it’s so much easier in New York. And if I want to drive another state to visit my family or for job related trips I can rent a car or borrow a friend’s car. In my spare time I will be hanging out with my friends and shopping, kind of like I do now but in ten years it will be in New York. It’s the main reason I wanted to live in New York. Also in my spare time I will take cooking lessons. Right now my main problem is overcooking, burning, and under cooking the food. While I still suck at cooking my fiancé and I will go out to eat most of the time. In ten years I will be 25 and already have one kid hopefully a girl. I want either one or two kids. If I only have one kid I want a girl, but if I have two kids I want a boy and a girl. But before I have kids or move to New York and settle down, and after I get my degree I want to go to England for six months to visit my distant family. I just think it would be fun to hang out with my cousins because some of them are close to my age and some of them are way older and younger than me and because I’ve never really got a chance to get to know any of my cousins or aunts and uncles and I don’t think I will any time soon either.

my favorite teacher

My favorite teacher is one that is funny, always making jokes. They also talk to students like they know each other and not just about school stuff, like they talk about sports and games and other stuff kids know about and can relate to. give you time at the end of class to work on homework, and don’t make us turn in homework until Friday. And when teachers let us work in groups and pick who we want to work with. And teachers who let us pick where we want to sit. Also when we don’t have to present in front of the class. And when teachers have us work in groups and learn in a fun way with games so its more memorable and the information will be easier to remember. Teachers who make everything into a joke are more memorable and help me learn the best. I have one teacher who makes jokes and goofs off but he also stays on subject.
