The picture I choose was from a car show I went to with my family. I entered a 50's pinup girl contest on the wrong day. The reason I choose this picture was because when I'm a senior I want to be who I am today, but with the changes I need to have to succeed in the life I have ahead of me. You can see my dads 1962 cleverly impala station wagon. One if my favorite things to do is take long trips in the wagon, you never where your going to end up. I guess that's how I feel about my future I have all these thoughts and Ideas as to who I want to be, but you never know where your going to end up at the end. I believe that if you are successful at trying, and you put as much effort in to what you have now that can benefit your future... Then you will be successful with no matter what you choose to do. In this picture you see rain, rain is normally a symbol of emotions. However if you look around after a rain storm when the sun shins through the cracks in the clouds. Doesn't it look so beautiful. Everything looks so bright, and painless. For some people rain makes them grumpy, but for me not so much. I was once told rain washes away problems. I strongly believe so, when you walk out side after you look up and see the sun shining through the cracks of the clouds wouldn't you smile, and forget about everything. 

      "'Eight stuivers a day isn't such a log of money' Agnes had a hoarse voice, as if her throat were covered with cobwebs. 'It will keep the family in bread. And a bit of cheese. That's not so little'" (pg. 9 Tracy Chevalier). When I read this sentence form Girl With A Pearl Earring, it made me think I don't want to live pay check to pay check. I want to make sure I'm secure, and that I have enough to pay the bills, but also so that I can have fun and go out with friends. When I'm a senior I want to graduate and go to collage and find a job that I love doing everyday. If I have a family I want to be able to provide for them, and make their life's the best that I can. I want to make sure they grow up to be successful, as well as being successful myself. 

      "'Where are you going?'.... I did not answer her question" (pg.222 TracyChevalier). When I walk out of high school on my verry last day of senior year  I'm not sure where I'll go. Yes I will go to collage, and ill most likely have collage picked out. Where I wanna go after collage I'm not sure. There are so many different choices in life, and choosing the right decision can scary but it's life and it's okay to make mistakes. Not knowing what your going to do next isn't always a bad thing. You can learn to discover new things, or do something you've never had the guts to do. So live every moment to the next..
