My mom brought up the university/college talk yesterday. She obviously assumed that I was going to The University of British Columbia (UBC) and another obvious one would be Kwantlen. Now its not that I would hate going to those schools, there still an option. Its just seems so typical. And I dont wanna be typical.
I told my mom that my dream place of going to college/university would be London. I’ve been there twice. Once when I was 7 and another when I was 13/14 years old. I remember every single moment of being there. Every statue, every mime, every monument, every car ride and of course the new family, whom I have never seen before. Theres one specific thing I remember. Was the icecream trucks. THEY WERE SO DETAILED! Like they literally had a big humungous (fake) icecream cone ontop of the truck and played real icercream music. No rust, no scary looking guy selling the icecream —O-M-G! THEY ACTUALLY HAVE ICECREAM! WITH SPRINKLES!! IN A CONE!!! And you know what else? Theres actually a window on the side of the icecream truck. Its not a door. AND they never and I mean NEVER run out!! I dont know why I was so amazed by these maginificent icecream trucks. They were just so sparkly. LOL!
Anywhooo, getting off topic here…once I told my mom that I wanted to go to London for university. Her reaction was just so helpless I dont even know why I even bothered to tell her and to even speak those words. ‘Cause right when those words came out of my mouth. It hit me. Money.
Food, dreams, houses, schools, vacations, books, underwears and life. You name it. It all has to do with money and lots of it. And I also realized that dollars is worth half on London. But on the other hand if I start raising money now, I think it would be enough. And I could work out some sort of plan with my parents to make this become a reality in the future. I just need someone older to come with me. That older imaginary sister of mine would come in quite handy in about a year or so. haha. But Im gonna need luck to even be able to find a job in this economy.
