It wasn't until we moved into our new home in 2006 that I found it again. It was addressed to me with explicit instructions not to open until my birthday 2005. It was now 2006 so I decided to open it. This is what it said:
Dear Sherri
By the time you read this you will be 30. At the age of 18 I had so many hopes and dreams about where you'd be, what you'd be doing and with whom you'd spend your life with.
Right now I hope that you have traveled and seen everything you've always wanted to, both in Canada and overseas, and maybe even settled down somewhere in Australia doing some research in the field of biology (genetics.
I hope you're married to the man of your dreams. The man of mine is Gwynn. He is originally from South Africa (another place I wish to visit.
You'll probably have two children of your own – a girl(Michaela Anne and a boy (name yet to be decided.
If everything goes according to plan you'll be living in Australia in a big house in a small town outside of a big city with a lot of land, a dog, Gwynn and your two beautiful children. Hopefully you have a career in the medical field, maybe doing research in genetics. Gwynn will be a computer programmer and you will be doing alright for yourselves.
However, if things don't go according to plan for you, I wish you all the love, happiness and joy in the world and don't settle for anything less than the best since that is absolutely what you deserve.
Live long, be happy and live life to it's fullest.
Love Sherri "18″
When I read this for the first time since writing it I was floored. Even now having dug this up again another 4 years later I still can't help but think this is really cool.
So much of what I wanted for myself has materialized.
I did travel to a few more places in Canada although I haven't seen everything I'd like to.I did marry the man of my dreams and yes he still is my one and only.I've traveled to the UK, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. I lived in Australia for nearly 4 years in a big house, in a small suburb, in a major city (close enough. I had a career in Biology in the field of genetics for 10 years.I have two lovely kids – both boys (names now decided.
I have not one dog but two dogs. Both yellow labs from Australia.Gwynn is a computer programmer. We are doing okay for ourselves.
After writing this I quickly forgot about what I had put in here actually. The things that materialized were all met with quite a bit of resistance (all internal but I suppose these were things that I really did want. Having never strayed too far from home overseas travel was a huge deal. Having never been away from my family moving to Australia for several years was an incredibly huge decision.
I find it fascinating how the dreams of a young and naive little girl can become a grown woman's reality.
I'm curious if you guys have ever written anything to your future self and how it stacks up to your current reality. If you haven't, will you join me in writing a letter now to yourself in say 10 years from now? It's an interesting little experiment.
大家好,我是个性格活泼开朗的小女孩儿,我长着一头乌黑发亮的头发,长长的睫毛像两把刷子,一双水灵灵的大眼睛,一眨一眨得十分可爱。
我最爱吃巧克力了,每天放学后我都会啃掉一大块巧克力,因此妈妈说我是一个巧克力***手。
我的爱好十分广泛,喜欢游泳、滑轮、跳舞、学数学。不过我最喜欢的还是跳舞和学数学了。只要音乐一响起我就会随着节奏不由自主地跳起舞来,过让我感到很是轻松、愉快。
我不但舞蹈跳得好,而且还喜欢解答数学难题。每次老师一出难题,我就会放下手上正在做的事情去解难题。一旦破解了,我就会高兴地像拿了一等奖一样兴奋。这就是我,聪明的我、活泼的我,但是世上没有完美的人,我也有很多缺点,比如我经常会犯粗心的毛病,丢三落四的毛病……
希望我以后能把坏毛病消灭掉,做一个更优秀的人。
我叫刘婷玲,今年13岁了,我身高1·55米。弯弯的眉毛,鼻子端正,唇似绽桃,笑的时候总露出光洁闪亮的牙齿。
我有一个缺点,就是胆小。记得有一次上课,老师提问,我明明会回答,可是不敢举手发言,老师突然叫我的名字,我当时很紧张慢慢的站起来,我不像别人那绘声绘色的回答,而是用语无伦次像蚂蚁那么小的声音回答,吞吞吐吐,在老师的鼓励下,我终于说完了,老师对我说:“回答的很好,如果声音再大一点,那会更好的。”老师说完,着下子我才不紧张些。瞧我那胆小的样子。
随着年龄的增长,胆小的缺点慢慢的改了,我开始喜欢水粉画了。每当双休日我都会拿起笔画画,我多么希望自己能够当上一名伟大的艺术家。对了,我还有一个优点,就是喜欢看书。如果我闲着没事做,我都会拿起一本书,坐在沙发上看书。天长日久,日积月累,我现在学习越来越好了。
胆小是我的性格,画画和看书是我的爱好,朋友们,你们觉得我怎么样呢?
A simple dcussion about Up
Pixar Animation Studios a superior about talking story at all times: Toy Story a story about deeply fraternal affection. Finding Nemo a story about a father’s introspection about h education road. The Incredibles a story about middle-aged man and wife’s life cr. Cars a story about moralities in physical education’s world by telling a star’s experiences. Ratatouille a story about a spirit that never gives up and you can realize your dream. Because of those wonderful cartoons, Pixar makes itself become an excellent symbol in cartoon sphere.
Therefore, Up worth being expected. And the truth that it’s a fantastic cartoon. To my mind, dream, commitment and responsibility the key of Up’s successful.
Children’s dreams are the easiest and the most romantic, on account of they always have deeply interest and passion for new things and strange world. But sometimes it’s difficult to realize their dreams by themselves; they usually need adults’ help. And those behaviors are not only their promes, but their commitments and responsibilities.
Russell and Carl’s relationship a key of Up. They have many differences: age, characters and background. And Up explains the relationship between adults and children by them.
Though Carl and Ellie’s love story just a few minutes, it impressive
and affecting. And it’s my favorite part in Up. Every man and wife wants to live a happy life, but true life usually makes it difficult to realize. But it doesn’t mean dream unpractical, prome untrue. Through Carl becomes unsociable and eccentric, he still remember h prome to Ellie. In my opinion, the thing which flies not the house, but a heart which brave and insts on its dream and prome.
And the adventurer, Charles a special role in Up. I think he stands for the people, who just care about their own benefit, totally forget social benefit and their roles in the society. There are so many kinds of dreams, so there are some persons make fame and wealth to be their goals. In fact, it reasonable, but it’s wrong to damage the social benefit. Th way of doing things terrible, shameful and lamentable. In the film, Charles forges sample at first, then kills many innocent men, and tries h best to get the animal, a kind of big bird. Everything he does for h own fame and wealth. The film has hit the right and wrong on the nose. In the final battle, empty-handed Charles fell down into a so deep cliff. It’s not only a punhment to him, but a satire to th kind of people.
Dream likes a check, prome likes an acceptance. Once you prome, you must try your best to make it come true for it your responsibility and duty.
