My Future: a moodboard

 This is my moodboard, a collection of images that represent what I want my future to look like:

    So, starting in the right top corner cluster of images, is what I imagine myself to look like (at least in my early 20s that is). I also imagine myself holding a camera a lot as one of the things I want to pursue in college is film/video. A guitar is included in two pictures because I really want to be in a band in college, or at least continue my hobby of playing the guitar. In the bottom right corner, there are a couple pictures of New York City, which is where I aspire to go to university or at least move to when I graduate college. Even though NYC is the dream, any big city in the USA (or outside) would fulfill my dreams of leaving the suburbs. An image of a brownstone apartment is in the middle because it is my dream to rent/own my own apartment one day. A few pictures, beginning just above the apartments, are of various European locations, including Italy. Although I have probably done more traveling than the average person my age, I really want to travel to parts of the world, especially Europe, that I haven't been to yet. I think it would be not only fun, but an even more eye-opening experience than I've received already.

     Then, starting in the left corner, I put images portraying the things I want to do when I'm older. Top to bottom in order they are: writer/journalist, archaeologist, horticulturist, and filmmaker (typewriter at bottom and journal with candle to the right also represent writer/journalist). I put all of the above because I still haven't decided exactly what I want to do my whole life and I'm also not sure that I'm going to limit myself to just one thing for the rest of my life. Who knows, I might do a little bit of everything throughout my life, or I might choose one and spend years mastering the field, gaining more knowledge, and eventually, getting higher and higher positions as time goes by. No matter the outcome, I really hope at least some of what I included here rings true for me one day.
