Thoughts, Dreams and Plans


The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Occupation - I am a qualified legal executive happily employed for the past ten years by a small legal firm in Auckland.  Despite this, my long standing wish has been to be a primary school teacher.  Never one to give up on my desires, I've been studying for the past few years towards my degree which will enable me to teach.  I expect to reach that goal within the next few years!

Travel - I have lived in South Africa for 35 years and in New Zealand for the past 10 years.  I've holidayed in Australia and we are planning a major overseas trip next year to Europe.  The excitement I feel when planning this trip is HUGE and I just know it's going to exceed our expectations.  London, Paris, Provence and Italy.....we'll see you soon!

London - I have a burning desire to live in London for a few years with Randel.  I dream that once the girls are older, we may well rent out our Auckland home and head over to London to experience what being a Londoner is all about for a year or to.   Or not.... The excitement of discovering a new city, especially once as big as London, is huge and hand in hand with living in London of course, if it's proximity to the rest of the UK and Europe....

Languages - I speak English and Afrikaans and hope to be able to converse freely in French as well within the next two years, French being one of my degree subjects.

Health - Last but not least, I'm making a concerted effort to improve my weight stat, exercise regime, sleep pattern and general health.  Of all the above, achieving this is probably the hardest for me to achieve but I plan to get there soon.

I'm a Taurean and a Dreamer..... I have however learnt that if the dream has enough intensity behind it, it can and very often does become reality.
