Day 10- Dreams

They say dreams reflect your innermost desires. And this has been mine for the past month:-

Boston College. I dreamed of stepping into Gasson Hall, not knowing anyone but relying on God to lead me to trustworthy people- people who will be my best friends for the whole year that I am there. 

I dreamed of big lecture halls; amazing lecturers; interesting tutorials; and getting good grades during my semesters there. I dreamed of a jaw-dropping library that holds thousands of books on sturdy wooden bookcases, old and new, classics and contemporaries; books that I would just borrow and read every night.

I dreamed that I sneaked into music lectures to secretly learn jazz; and that I sneaked into the practice rooms just to run my fingers across the piano; playing familiar melodies in which I will lose myself in. I dreamed that it is in this room in which I will meet my future husband- a law student, fellow musician, and a godly man who lives for God. He is tall, has broad shoulders, and smells nice, and is intelligent and wise beyond his years. He loves reading, and we would sit beneath the huge tree outside BC and read different books- him leaning on the tree bark, and me lying down on his stomach. Other times, he would play football, and I'd look up from my book, time-to-time, just to admire him from afar.

I dreamed that I would have a nice roommate- a girl who is tidy; talkative; fun; kind; and that we would have 'sleepovers' every night, talking about boys, love, life, and our futures. I dreamed that we would always visit Boston City; going for musicals; and constantly being in awe of the richness of its history. I dreamed that I would work part-time in a diner and buy clothes and shoes with the money I earned. 

I dreamed of a church, not too far away from BC that is in need of a pianist. 

I dreamed that I will be actively involved in the student ministry in BC; developing a passion for students there and the United States as a whole.

I dreamed that I will have a deeper relationship with God while I'm there; knowing God in such an intimate way that I never imagined I could have. I dreamed that it is there that God tells me what His plans are for me in the future; who He intends for me to marry; and what ministry He wants me to be involved in; as well as the country I'd settle down in, be it Malaysia or the US.

I dreamed that I will form amazing friendships, and that we'll have road trips together; go to Disneyland during the summer; laze around in fields in spring; take walks underneath the autumn leaves falling; and have snowball fights in winter.

I dreamed that I will spend Christmas there, a white one, and enjoy a Christmas atmosphere I've never experienced before. I remember dreaming that I'd come home to Malaysia, feeling excited, because I knew that it wouldn't be long before I went back to the States again (:
