I've always been the type of person that struggles with deciding what they want to do with their life, but I'm also known for being quite the dreamer. Most people tend to think of dreams as unachievable or even childish, but growing up I've always been aspiring to follow my dreams. Sure they've changed over the years, (When I was little I wanted to be a famous cashier? Not quite sure what that would be or how that became my dream job, but I was 5) but they always been such a huge part of my life. Dreams seem to get a bad connotation as you get older, and when you start telling relatives or adults your dreams they give you weird looks because surely you can't believe that you can do exactly what you are dreaming of doing. I've constantly dealt with people trying to knock me down by telling me that I can't do things because they just aren't realistic, but that hasn't stopped me yet. I'm not entirely sure what exactly I want to do with my life, but I do know that I want to do something that is worthwhile and something that I will be remembered for. I want to make an impact on people and I want to prove to people that no matter what people tell you, you can do anything you want to do (cheesy, I know, but I believe it 100%).
