Dream

Okay so today was a total bummer because I realized I was a day late to possibly make my life long dream come true!! Well let me first start with what my dream has been. From the time I was little I wanted to be in the olympics, I first wanted to be "Flo-Jo" and would run around the living room then I realized 1-I am white so that wouldn't work and 2-I can't run so that dream is done. Then I grew up swimming and dreamed of going for swimming but even though I have a great love of swimming I lack the competitive drive to push myself. I just love to swim and don't really care about winning. So now it is a dream of attending the games and seeing swimming in person. I must admit I am a total sap and cry at the medal ceremonies. Now in 2012 the games will be in London and being in Spain we are super close and I would love more then anything to go. But this morning when I went to look up the games and tickets I was a day late to get on the list for tickets!! Super poop. But hope is not lost I am going on every authorized website and signing up so in case there are some unsold tickets I can get them. I have no clue how much the hotels are going to cost or flights but all I know is if I don't try to go I will regret it forever, or until the games get back to the US. We all have life long dreams and though some may be obtainable and some not so much trying to get them is so worth it!! But with my dream there is another hurdle and that is finances, London is super expensive but is the dream worth going in a little for?? Do you suck it up and fork over the money knowing that the opportunity might not ever come again?? Well once July comes around and I can find out how much it will really cost my choice will be made. Can you put a price on a dream??
