What would you do if you won the lottery?
View all responses

The first thing I would do if I won the lottery is pay off my debts as being in debt sucks sh!t. I have both medical and credit card debt and it would be nice to not to worry about owing money.

After paying off debt I would love to buy me a new home. I would love to own a house however I would be happy owning a condo. Owning my own home would be amazing for me as I don’t ever see myself owning my own home unless a miracle like winning the lottery.

Another thing I would like to do is get a college education. I would love to get my four year degree in Applied Behavioral Science at Seattle Central College which is a two year college. Ultimately this would be a cheaper route and the route I would love to do. I would also like to get my Master’s of Social Work (MSW) if that is in the budget to do after winning the lottery. If I have the chance to ever get my MSW I would love to get it from the University of Washington.

One of the other things I would love to do if I ever won the lottery is get my passport to travel. I would love to travel to Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Germany. I would also like to travel within the United States via train to various cities and towns.

The other thing I would really love to do is increase the amount of money I donate to a local animal shelter that adopts out dogs and cats as well as some rehabilitation for wildlife. Any organization that does rehabilitation for wild animals as well as adopts out cats and dogs is an organization worth giving money to.

What colleges have you attended?

I sadly have not had the luxury of being able to attend college for various reasons. One of those reasons which is the main reason is money and the lack there of due to living in poverty most of my life. I am aware that there are programs there such as government grants as well as various scholarships however you have to qualify for such things.

Money might be the major reason why I have not had the luxury to attend college but my various disabilities have gotten in the way. Or maybe I should say I let my disabilities get in the way and I was taught at a young age to never allow my disabilities get in the way of my education as I can easily figure out what accommodations I need to help me with education.

I guess now is as good of time as any other time on what I complain about the most. I think I complain most about the cold weather especially when it gets below freezing outside like it currently is here in Seattle. I do not do well in freezing weather and really hate being cold especially when my feet are wet. I also complain a lot about wet feet and you would think I would get water proof or water resistant shoes since I live in Seattle but nope I don’t have any shoes like that at the moment. It may be below freezing outside right now but at least there is no snow on the ground in my Seattle neighborhood. Not having snow in Seattle is a good thing.

What are your biggest challenges?

I can spend all day listing my challenges as I have so many of them already however I am not going to do that. I will say that my biggest challenges are myself as well as PTSD and Depression.

I am one of my biggest challenges because I can get in the way of myself in many different ways and can prevent myself from accomplishing great things in my community. I get in the way of myself by a lot of negative self talk which isn’t good for anyone especially those like me who have a mental health diagnosis.

Speaking of mental health diagnoses, my own diagnoses are challenging. Some moments are more challenging than other moments. Knowing when certain times of the year are harder than other times of year can be quite helpful to make sure those moments don’t have to be as challenging.

I have no idea if what I want to eat right now is considered a snack food but I am highly craving it at the moment. I am craving very specific food and a very specific beverage from Red Robin. The specific food I am craving from Red Robin is a Whisky River BBQ burger with a little pink in the beef and some extra cheddar cheese and extra crispy onion straws. The beverage I am craving from Red Robin is Freckled Lemonade which is strawberry lemonade and it has no alcohol which makes it even better. Now, I am really craving this meal from Red Robin. I think I might have Red Robin at some point this weekend.
