In Ten Years


In ten years, I will be thirty years old. It’s hard to predict what my life would be like in ten years, but if I had to image, I would hope to have accomplished many things.


By age thirty, I hope to have found my husband. I want to marry someone that will want to keep loving me and supporting me no matter what comes in our path. I think it is important for a relationship to be based off of the theory of respect and love. These are some of the qualities that I look for in someone.


Secondly, I want to have children. As of right now, I want 4 children. I know that is financially a handful and a lot of hard work, but I have always dreamed of having a big family. It is such gift to raise a child to be the best person that they can become. I want to be apart of making that happen. I am a person that likes a lot going on, so having a big family would fit me.


I also would like to be a volunteer for the city that I live in. I would like to help raise money for good causes in my community and help others that don’t have as much as me.


As far as working, well, I really would love to be a realtor. I am fascinated with houses and interior design. Clemson is not the best University for real estate, so I am hoping to start real estate school after I get my Bachelors in Management in Clemson.


Lastly, I want to be a better Godly Women. I used to practice my religion much more when I was younger, but as I got older, time got restricted and going to church has not been my first priority. It’s sad to say, but it’s only the truth. I am a woman whom believes in always telling the truth because it’s the right thing.


I really have no clue what my life would be like in ten years, however no one else knows that answer either. Maybe all of theses things will come true? It’s only me that can make them happen.

WEB 2.0

I personally thought Web 2.0 was really cool, however a little fast to follow. It was not that it was necessarily too fast, but that it was just a lot of information and too many different things going on all at once. The video got me thinking so hard about the things going on from the beginning of the video that I found myself not really paying attention to the message towards the end.

This video does do a good job at informing viewers on how much we rely on technology. It also shows how fast and easy it is to connect with resources as well as people all over the world.

It is amazing to me how much technology effects our lives today. Not being a full time women in the workforce, I still use technology in almost everything I do. Sending an e-mail to a friend or calling my parents at home or having my alarm clock wake me up, its all technology that I use on a daily basis. I can't even imagine how much more I will use technology once I am out of school and have a full time job. This video makes you wonder.

A Little About Me

Hi everyone! For those that don't know me, my name is Hilary. I am from Nashville, Tennessee and a Junior at Clemson. I am majoring in Management and minoring in Advertisement. I am not exactly sure what I want to do with my Management degree, but I am interested in going to Graduate School to get my Masters in Real Estate. I love design and houses. I plan on buying houses to stage them and then resell them for a greater price than bought. I think this occupation will be time consuming but flexible. I want a flexible job so I can raise my children. I want to be able to spend time with my children and to give them the life I never had.

At Clemson I dedicate most of my time to two activities outside of academics. I am on the Clemson Women's Rowing team and a Greek Life sorority member. Between the two, it takes a great deal of time management to balance your academics with athletics and have a social life, but somehow I do it. I do take pride in what I do at Clemson and I take pride in being a Tiger as well. Being an athlete for a University that I love is an incredible amount of work and dedication, however I would never not appreciate the experience I get.

I have three amazing roommates. They are mature and know what is best for them in their life. Each of us have our own personal struggles, but we would not be all keeping our head as high as we do without each other. We all have been in many hard and uncomfortable situations, but what can be better than a roommate that supports each other and loves each other for who they are, rather than whom they are not.

If you want to know more about me, then you should ask. I am not going to waste more words about myself, because I rather get to know you than tell you about me. That's all I have for now. Until next blog, Go TIGERS!!
