it seems everyone around me are chasing their dreams, even having them come true. people are going overseas to study, having dream jobs, travelling, going for holidays planned when they were kids. even my best friend is departing for a world tour alone in a few days time.
made me think for a little bit - what happened to my childhood dreams? the answer - i had none. at least not one that is remotely achievable. i dreamt of becoming an arsenal player. i'm 21. pedo wenger won't even look at me. i dreamt of becoming a rock star, a fomula one driver, a pro gamer. but i suck at every one of them. i guess the only thing that came true was when i was a little kid i wanted to be a police officer. but i am one now not by choice.
so what i wanna do right here right now is simply have a dream i can chase. i've thought about it long and hard. it has to be achievable and it must be something i confirm will enjoy.
firstly, i love cars. fast cars. expensive cars. but i got no money. secondly, i love to travel. the further the better. i've always wanted to go to italy. maranello to be exact. third, i love to take risks. i love the feeling when you know there is a possibility you'll never make it back home. i get a real kick out of it.
the solution - buy a one way plane ticket to europe or wherever, bring nothing but the essentials. get a job. get a car.
then.
join gumball 3000. fyi, gumball is an 3000 mile annual road rally round the world that is like a huge road trip. usually it features exotic and expensive cars. but there are noob cars as well. the 2010 rally went from london to new york. yes. by road. and yes. this is my dream. to complete 3000 miles around the world. in a car.
and remember i only got a one way ticket?
after the rally i gotta work to buy a ticket back home.
now thats an adventure.
thats a dream.
