If I could do anything in the entire world...

I really hate studying. Two weeks of doing nothing but studying? Not enjoyable. Sure, there has been large amounts of procrastination, but it's still not stress-free procrastination, because you know you'll still have to study eventually. So, here is my latest plan for what I will do instead of going to school to become a scientist/pharmacist:
First, I'm going to open my own art store. In uptown Waterloo. There is that one store by the river there. Actually I don't think it's by the river. It might be, it might not be. Anyways. I'm going to open a super-awesome art store that has all sorts of really awesome, unique, hard to find stuff and every art supply you could need. Like the art store in Guelph. I love that art store. And I'd give discounts to students. And since I'd have given up the dream of making money, I'd make everything a really good deal...because most art stores are crazy expensive. I'd also sell my own art...paintings, jewellery, the like. I'd also start my own band. I'd be a ukulele player, because there aren't enough of those in the world. And it wouldn't be the typical ukulele music, it'd be a band of the indie-rock persuasion, but not too indie, because otherwise it could come off sounding like Jack Johnson (not a bad thing, but I want it to be original). Of course I could always play keyboards or violin or guitar as well. Anyhoo. So having my own art store, I probably wouldn't be able to pay employees at first so I'd work there by myself all the time, and all sorts of cute artsy guys would come in. One of said artsy guys would come in one day and fall in love with me, and we'd get married. He'd be a musician, too, of course. But we'd stay in separate bands...I mean, the Golden Dogs are pulling it off, but Abba couldn't, so...lol. But yes, we'd jam together all the time. And live in a cute little apartment over my art store. Sure, we wouldn't make a lot of money, but it would be awesome. Neither one of us would get famous, of course, because that would be a pain.
That's the plan.
...too bad it'll never happen...I'd at least take the artsy guy, if not the art store...

haha Joanna, you're a true university student. I have way more drop-out plans than real life plans. there comes a time once every semester where I seriously contemplate drop out plans..this year is the first year I haven't had to resort to them...it does get better!

Oh Joanna, I thoroughly enjoyed this. It sounds like a great plan, and you've inspired me to write my own in my blog. Stay turned! lol.

And I like how ABBA is your reason for not being in the same band. :P
