Long term

I am very satisfied working at my current job as a biochemist. This is what I have always dreamt of for a long time. I am working as a valuable member in the society and the sole purpose of my job is to help people. My lab is everything to me because now I’m working on this amazing drug that will eliminate the side effects of Adderall which can help people become smarter than they currently are. My lab is very clean and organized just how I like it. The silence in here might be somewhat creepy but I love it. I have always wanted to work by myself and now I finally can. Working on this drug make me feel better and better every day. It hasn’t been perfected yet however that’s the beauty of it. This drug deserves time and patience just like raising a child. However, in this case I’m making the child I suppose. I enjoy working now more than hanging out or spending my time doing anything else. This is not just work for me this is my life and hobby. Every single new day brings me more joy than the preserves. In addition to my heavenly lab I have my car. A brand new Nissan GTR V6 that can beat most of the cars out there with ease. The leather smell is very pleasing or for me at least because I like leather. The strong leather smell makes me think that the car still new like I just got it. Also, my car smells like peaches because this pleasant smell helps me to relax after a beautiful day at my job or more like my hobby. The pleasing smell in my car starts and finishes the day just perfectly. Then my house comes in play. The house has four different bedrooms, three bathrooms, big swimming pool, and big back yard. My favorite places in the house are the kitchen, my bedroom, and the bathroom. Maybe because that’s all I need. The house is not as important to me as my job so I really don’t care a whole lot about it. The only purpose for it is for me t rest in it.

Short term

My school year has just ended and it was very successful. I have learned a lot this year especially in my psychology class and chemistry. However, I’m not surprised because I love both subject. I’m feeling good about myself and what I have accomplished so far. I learned that I could make people like just by smiling at them every day or every time I see them and act like I care about them even if I don’t. That helped me understand people a little better and it helped my depression a lot. My depression is officially gone and I’m happy even at my low pay job. This job may not be paying thousands of dollars but it’s my job and I like it. I’m getting seven hundred dollars every two weeks for and I only work four days a week. I used to look at my job in a negative way but that was how I looked at everything. This has changed because of what I learned this past year. I learned that having the right mentality can have a significant change in one’s mental situation. I also learned that talking to yourself positively can help change your mind set to be positive, now this might sound like a little brain wash which it is but it isn’t bad. It’s more like self-motivation rather than brainwash. Also, let’s not forget about my new car that I planned to buy since the beginning of this past school year. My car is a SUV because I like bigger cars in room wise not just size. I’m in love with it because I learned that I have to stay positive to feel better and I think it is working. My family is doing okay as well and the little bit of trouble that we had has been resolved so I think that I have nothing to worry about but enjoying my summer. Hopefully my next year will be a valuable is this last one.
