My Manifesto

My life manifesto is first comprised of graduating from college with a degree in psychology. After I obtain my bachelor's degree I plan on going to graduate school to further my education and receive a doctrine in my current major. With my doctrine I'd like to become a psychology professor at a university while researching new theories that will end up helping others. I want to make discoveries about the mind and unlock the answers to psychological problems that are still a mystery.

It's extremely important to me to become my own success. I don't want to be dependent on any one, especially when I get married. I've watched my parents have financial problems that eventually contributed to a divorce and I learned how important it is to be able to support yourself before making that sort of commitment with another. So after I'm financially independent I'd love to consider marriage, hopefully to my boyfriend of almost three years, Jacob. If I'm lucky enough to find someone crazy enough to marry me, I'd like to travel to Europe with my significant other. However, even if I don't get married that won't stop me from experiencing the world for myself! I was always bored when it came to American history, but European history has always fascinated me. Before I die I want to see for myself where all those historical events took place. Just to name a few, I want to see the England, France, Greece, Egypt, and Italy.

One cause I have always been passionate about is the fight for women's rights. Even though there are a lot of people who view being a feminist as something negative, I've seen the importance of it. Without any sort of feminist movement women would hardly have any rights that we take for granted of today. Even though we have come a long way already, there still remains a great deal of sexist degradation against women. I'd like to get a minor in women's studies to use that education to do something great for women's rights.

All throughout my life the one person who has always been there for me is my dad. To this day, even though he doesn't have a lot, he always helps me with so much. When I'm making my own living I want to give back to my dad all that he's done for me. I want to help him be able to retire and enjoy the rest of his life comfortably. No matter how much my salary ends up being, I will be there to take care of my father.

After I accomplish all of my goals and traveling the world, only then do I want to to start a family and have children. At that point, I will be ready to settle down and experience the joy of having kids. When I become a mother, I still want to be able to work but it's still very important to me to be an active parent. My mother never once put me after school care when I was growing up and I want to do the same for mine. When my significant other and I become parents it's also crucial to me to be able to overcome any problems together that we may face. I will never let my children experience the heartache of a divorce unless I have no other choice. I want to always keep it a priority to maintain a close relationship to my kids, like the one I had with my parents. I want them to always feel like they can come talk to me about anything and know that I will do everything possible to take care of them. While they're getting older, I want to give them something I never had. I want to continually set aside money towards their college education because I know personally how hard it is to pay for school without any help.

Once I reach retirement, I hope to have enough money in my retirement fund to buy a nice little home and some land in the country with my husband. I'd like to see other places of the world I didn't get to see before and maybe visit some of my favorite places I've already seen. I want to spoil my children and later my children's children. But most of all I want to spend the rest of my days enjoying the company of my future husband and doing the simple things in life together.
