Day 53 - Tell me your dream

I have lots of dreams. There are so many things that I want to do in the future. Yesterday, I wanted to be an architect. Today, I want to be a pop idol. Well, tomorrow I don't know for sure but maybe a doctor.
First of all, I want to be an architect. Last year, I went to Italy with my family. I saw some great buildings there. Wow! They were so magnificent that I could not believe my eyes. Just thinking about myself traveling and designing buildings all over the world excites me so much. Every time I see architects carrying rolled-up blueprints or visiting a building construction site in a movie, I imagine myself as an architect, too. What an awesome job it is! Once I become an architect, want to do something good to help others. I want to build houses for homeless people, and I want to build beautiful orphanages that look like castles. That way orphans would feel less lonely and sad. If they lived in a castle, they would feel like princes and princesses.
Second, I really like singing and dancing in front of people. So sometimes I dream of being a pop idol. If I become a pop idol, I can have my own concerts, and I will have tons of fans who love me. All eyes will be on me. People will try to dress like me, and they will talk about me all the time. I will be super rich because I make lots of money with my movies and music. I will be on all kinds of commercials, too. I know it is not easy to be a pop idol because I will have to train for years and diet for a long time. However, I think it is totally worth it, and with my fame and popularity, I will do lots of charity work. I will encourage my fans to make donations or volunteer to help people in need.
Third, my parents are doctors. They are both pediatricians. I respect my parents for what they do. So I want to follow in their footsteps. However, I know how hard it is to be a doctor. In order to be a doctor, you have to study very hard. I honestly don't know if I can endure the pain and suffering of studying. When you are in medical school, it seems like you are under a lot of stress. However, my parents want to go to Africa as missionaries in the future, and I want to go with them and help them in Africa. That's why I want to be a doctor. Finally, I think it is wonderful to have a job that you really love, and I can't wait to have one myself. What about you? What do you want to be in the future?
