In five years time

A good friend asked me a question today:
Where you want to be in 5 years?
So I closed my eyes and sat and thought, where do I want to be in 5 years time?
I'll be 23,
I want a job as a music journalist,
I want a little flat in the suburbs of London with a big red door and a cat flap,
I want to eat Chinese food every night,
And wake up late every morning,
I want to listen to slow music and read novels in an old rocking chair,
I want to give all my friends a key so they can visit whenever they want,
I want to drink and laugh and talk and joke until the sun goes down and comes back up again,
I want to go for runs around the block twice a week,
I want someone to share the experience with,
I want to write,
I want to tell stories,
I want the landlord to hassle me for rent,
I want to sit at an old PC and write about the next best thing,
I want to stay in on Friday nights with a six pack and a couple of friends,
I want to go the park on weekends and bask in the sun,
I want peace of mind,
I want fish and chips, corner shops, acoustic guitars and bare feet in flip flops,
I don't want it all,
What's the point in having a big house with no one to fill it?
I just want a life,
My life.
