Day dreaming about my dream job….

Day dreaming about my dream job

Like always I’m sitting by my computer in the middle of the night, early morning, and thinking about my dream job. I’ve looked into different places to find a new job that does not kill my creative side and so far I have found nothing. Maybe I’m not looking in the right places but I am looking. My friend told me not to be picky, but hell if I’m going to switch jobs, I want to make sure I’m upgrading and not going from a hole to a massive ditch. I haven’t given up on home though, I’m convinced one of these days I’m going to wake up and know exactly what I’m suppose to do.

I hate office jobs and want to be stuck in an office unless I’m working for a creative company that comes up with a lot of hands on built it yourself and put it together office. Working for a magazine would be fun, you get to decide what goes where on the pages, which pictures to choose and you get to meet interesting people and learn new things with every article or issue.

I wish I had a job that required me to travel and test out new things, like being even a travel journalist would be great! I would get to go to amazing places, stay at amazing hotels and take pictures of my  fantastic experience. Write reviews and be published in a magazine or news paper. Sigh….

I wish I had business of my own though, I would make rules, I would know exactly how to run it and wouldn’t  mind putting in the long hours since I would know I be the one who would benefit from it and not some big corporate dude who does not care about me and what I do everyday. Plus I think working with a smaller company is always better because you get to learn pretty much all the different areas of the business and you wouldn’t find your work so mindless and boring since you can always switch things up with working in different areas of the company.

Flipping houses would be another fantastic job. I watch a lot of HGTV lately and I’m so inspired by all I see. People do some interesting things to their houses when they have the budget, patience and talent. If I had the money to do anything major like that, I would be so good at it. I saw a show were a couple bought an abandoned gothic church and turned it into a beautiful home for their family. Imagine living in a church, so cool!

Owning a big farm land somewhere in Italy would be nice too. I went to school in Tuscany for a summer and I had the most amazing time in the little town I was in. Owning a piece of land there with a nice villa to convert into my own private piece of heaven would be amazing. To support myself, I would make furniture and art pieces to sell. I’m so hopeless, we all know that’s never gonna happen and I just sound dumb for believing that it would.

For awhile I wanted to have a commercial space to open an art gallery and rented out to up and coming artists and photographers. I even have a picture of the place and how it would b set up, but its all a dream. As far as I know, I’m stuck with my pointless job till I finish my school next year and even then the chances of me getting any of the jobs that I dream about is maybe %1.

But a girl can dream…..
