The 5 Questions : Dreams + Reality

I've been working quite a bit lately and I love it when my co-workers "quiz" me on my life. Basically it's 5 questions they want to know about me.
- - -
1) What do you want to do after you graduate?
2) Where do you want to end up living?
3) What is the ideal age you want to marry?
4) Where do you buy your clothes/what's your inspiration?
5) If you didn't open a boutique one day, what would you want to be doing?

Simple to answer all these right? I can just spit out the answers right away . . .
1) Well it depends on how things go with my internship {cross your fingers its in NYC}! I either want to stay in that city and continue working for that company or move to an urban city {L.A. or Chicago} and free - lance styling.
2) It's in my heart that I stay south in my older days and Franklin, Tennessee has always had my heart.
3) I love this one . . . did I mention most of them are in high school and dream of getting married between the ages of 21-23? Well, right now in life I'm waiting for God to lead me in the direction He has for me. Til then, I'm not sure.
4) Right now, mostly from Charlotte's since I work there, but I put my own twist in my outfit. Other than that, J. Crew, Gap, Francesca's Collection, and recently the thrift store. I've never been to one until last week and although it grossed me out a bit, I found some cute stuff that I ripped and embellished and made my own!
5) Gosh, this has been where my head is spinning! I have so many ideas and things I want to do. Maybe wedding planning?! There is just something I adore about weddings. I can look at wedding photos for hours! It's sad, but true! Yet again, still waiting on Him to lead me in the right direction.

Still, with all of my dreams, how can I make them a reality? I am determined and passionate about the things in my life. Some people find me as a workaholic or too stubborn to say no. I happen to think these are great qualities. I guess I will have to figure that out on my own and continue to look for guidance from the big guy upstairs. Til then, I'll be keeping my eyes on my dreams and, to my best abilities, making them into reality.
