sleep when you're dead

Earlier today a popular cosplayer tweeted for people to follow their dreams and that we should "sleep when you're dead".

She's right.

Life is far too short to not pursue everything that you want in life. I know that I have a lot of dreams and, at 23, I feel its the perfect time to start making those dreams happen. Sitting at home and only hoping this things happen for me is not good at all. I need to get out there and hunt these dreams down.

One dream I have is just to be successful by doing what I love. That is writing. Writing what I want to write. Whether it be fiction or reviews, I want to write. It seems a bit unorthodox to my parents but this is what I want to do - its what I'm good at.

I dream of having my own place with nice furniture, a big ass tv, and a cute little dog. That could be just an apartment in a nice complex or a house. I don't want nor need to be ballin out of control. I just want to be comfortable - able to afford the necessities and maybe some fun stuff on the side.

A bit of an extreme dream of mine is to own a comic and manga bookstore with an arcade attached. A store like that would not do too well in my area but I still wish it existed here. The picture I included is of Midtown Comics in Times Square (which I intend to visit this summer!) Everytime I visit a comic store I just want to OWN ONE.

More down-to-earth dreams would be to find someone to fall in love with that also completely loves me and to start a family with that person. By southern standards I should have already found this person. I don't mind that I'm single right now, but that doesn't mean I'm completely comfortable with the concept of being single for the rest of my life. Ever since I was little I have wanted to start my own family. That idea has not left me in the slightest. Im just not rushing into anything.

So, just some of my dreams. I am working quite hard to try and pursue them because I want them so badly...
