I'm not the type to rush things...

♫ Animal - Neon Trees

I've always liked school and have never been in a hurry to graduate. I wanted to savor every moment of high school and I thought I'd be the same way with college, but now I just want to quickly finish and start working... and grow up. I want to cook dinner for someone special who will also cook dinner for me. I want to drink iced coffee in the morning and go to the gym in the evening. I want my own desk at work, my own computer and I want to be needed. I want to be good at what I do and I want to save the world. I want to buy my own furniture and decorate my own house. I want to buy my Mom purses and shoes and pay for her mortgage. I want to cook for her and pack her banchan and do everything my Dad ever did for her. I want to take my family and friends out to dinner. I want to buy a cart-full of groceries. I want to wake up on a Saturday morning and not have homework to worry about. I want to wake up every morning next to the person I love. I want to travel. I just want to be able to take care of myself financially and have enough to spoil others, too. And I want a dog. And I want all of this to be just as whimsical and too-good-to-be-true as I imagine it to be. Is this too much to ask for? I wish it would just happen sooner, because I'm really looking forward to getting out of this whole college thing. For now.
