A Girl’s Notebook :)

If I were to ask about my dream job, it would be being a “Cashier” in a department store or a supermarket! It is true. I used to play a cashier when I was young. My younger sister would act as the customer with her basket of goodies. We made our own play moneys then. We cut out bond papers and write the amount on it. We used bottle covers as coins. Then I would borrow my mother’s calculator and I would be the cashier.

It really makes me laugh every time I remember those days . My younger sister’s dream job was to be a “tinapa/daing” vendor . She had this dream because of our friend vendor who counts the money from the tinapa(steamed fish) and daing she was able to sell. When my sister saw her counting all the money, she’s really amazed and told my mother that she wanted to be a vendor when she grew up. Well, she was only 5 then and I was 8. 

To this day, I would really want to experience being a cashier just for the sake of fulfilling my so- called ”dream job”. But then, maybe a little help from weight loss product will help me to trim down a bit. As we know, cashiers, sales ladies and the like have slim bodies!

I just finished answering a Dneero survey. One of the questions I need to answer is “What is your greatest dream.” Every one of us has our own greatest dream. It took me a while to answer that question. I have a lot of dreams that I wanted to fulfill. Dreams that I want to turn into reality.

Back in the college,  I have a favorite poem entitled “Always have a Dream” written by Amanda Bradley. Well, even up to now, I still love the poem. Then, one of my friends, Rowency, gave me a copy of that dream as gift. She wrote a note at the end of the poem which says, “But don’t forget to turn your dreams into reality.” Sweet! Here’s the poem and I know you will like it,  too.

~ Always Have A Dream ~

Forget about the day when it’s been cloudy,
but don’t forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you’ve been defeated,
but don’t forget the victories you’ve won.

Forget about mistakes that you can’t change now,
but don’t forget the lessons that you’ve learned.
Forget about misfortunes you encounter,
but don’t forget the times your luck has turned.

Forget about the days when you’ve been lonely,
but don’t forget the friendly smiles you’ve seen.
Forget about the plans that didn’t work out right,
but don’t forget to always have a dream.

~ Amanda Bradley ~

Isn’t it inspiring?!?  Going back to the survey I have answered, I paused a while and think the greatest dream I have yet to fulfill. Then, I realized that it is to get married in a church. How I wanted to get married in a church. I love looking at bridal magazines. Planning my entourage and etc. I even have own design of wedding gown!

When I was still with Speechpower, my OM saw that gown and told me not to plan about my wedding too soon. Because more often than not, the woman who plans “ahead” of her wedding, will never get married at all!

It could be true to me, due to some personal and family matters. But, I know that my dream of getting married in a church will soon come true..
