"A teacher asked a class to write on a piece of paper what they wanted to be when they were older. One girl wrote "When I'm older I want to be happy" The teacher said the girl misunderstood the task. But maybe it was the teacher who didn't understand"
I don't know what I want to be when I'm older.
But now, with everyone going on about it all the time- Is it time to start thinking more seriously ? Truthfully, the concept of the future terrifies me. The thought of being stuck in a dead end job that doesnt interest me is equally terrifying. With this in mind you'd think I could get my act together and actually decide- but no. Is it too much to ask to be happy and do something engaging? Isn't half the fun meant to be finding it out ? With all this talk of decisions, universities and careers- my head is spinning. When others around me know exactly what they want to do and how they are going to achieve this, the word circulating my head is FUCK.
I know what I want: I want to act, but I'm not naive enough to think this'll happen.
So for now, I'll stick with the desire to be happy. And you never know, I might end up doing something I love, I've never been one for planning (:
