Season quiz

[flexagon]

miyyu was right... lovely pictures with this quiz. I didn't know what season I'd get. I like all the seasons, each in their way.

You scored as Winter. You are WINTER. You're more introspective, thinking deeply, feeling deeply. You love nothing better than to enjoy one on one time with those who are important to you. You are cautious, and sometimes second guess yourself. Dreams, though you have them, are a luxury, because life is not a plaything. </td> Winter 70% Summer 60% Fall 60% Spring 35% What Season Are You? created with QuizFarm.com

This does make me think of the one 'serious' thing that's been on my mind lately, and that's my own (and to a lesser extent, my bug's) lack of long-term plans. Once upon a time, I lived only for such things... now I've gotten pretty used to not having them. I have several things in mind for 2006 and one thing in mind for the year after that, but after that it's all a white blur. Now, this may make me realistic, in the moment, loose and ready to jump at opportunity, or I might just be an ur-slacker, but I'm kind of wondering how many people really do have long-term plans, anyway. Do you? What are they?

Interesting question, and of course it's a central issue. I would say that for something to be a plan you actually have to have, well, a plan. A defined series of actions, coupled with times you plan to do them. bluechromis has a long-term plan to get into med school because she knows what classes she needs to take when in order to qualify, and what year to apply to schools. I would like to completely own my residence someday, but I don't even know where I'll be living by the time I'll be in a position to accomplish that, so it's not a plan, just a daydream.

I agree that it's important to be okay revising goals/plans as things change. Funny though... most of the things I'm proudest of in my life I've gotten by being tenaciously inflexible. I'm not sure what to think of that. I know it's possible to get into bad trouble by being either too flexible or not flexible enough.

What are your long-term dreams and goals, besides (or just more detail on) the log cabin? You don't have to tell, but I am truly interested.
