WHAT WILL BE MY FUTURE LIKE IN 20 YEARS?

Nowadays, I’m fifteen years old. Can I imagine myself being thirty-five? I’ll try it.
I think I won’t be perfect and I won’t have all I’d want, but some say dreaming is free.

Thinking about my appearance… I’ll be tall, but not much more than now. I’ll have soft and dark hair, and brown eyes. I’ll be quite fit.
And thinking about my personality… I’ll be friendly, responsible, good-tempered and strong inside. I’ll be a true friend of my friends, and lovely and close to my family.

I’ll live in a village, near a city. It will be situated on the plain, in Catalonia.
My house will be quite big; it will have a garden with a little playground for my children. The house will have two or three floors, and the rooms will be wide.
We’ll live together, my family and I. My husband (because I want to get married someday) will love me and our children (because I want to be mum someday). Also, I’ll get in touch with my brother and cousins, etc. very often.

I hope I’ll have no routine, or a small one. I have no idea, but maybe I’ll work as a foreign language teacher, as a basketball player, as a doctor..
The hobbies I want now to be mine in this future are going out into nature, playing the piano, doing sports… I think I’ll spend my free time with my family and myself.
My lifestyle will be enjoying each moment, learning from each day, living well, being happy and making the others happy.
