It’s easy to forget to dream, especially once parenthood begins. Here is a collection of goals and aspirations. Maybe even a bucket list.

  • Go to art school to master 2D art techniques. I want the rigour, the grind.
  • Get good at driving. I’m fine, but I’m a nervous driver… Maybe going to a stunt driving course would be fun and get me used to the steering wheel.
  • Do a long thu-hike and hone my minimalist sensibilities while doing so.
  • Sail across an ocean.
  • Set foot on every continent and dip a toe in every ocean.
  • Learn Tagalog
  • Learn Russian
  • Master Spanish, Japanese, and German.
  • Curate my home to suit me.
  • Publish a book.
  • Have a gallery exhibition.

All of these take time, but I like to imagine that time (and money) won’t be a problem in the future. I have already planted the seeds for each of these.
