I am physically tired, but my mind won't shut up. When I'm lieing in my bed, all I can think about is the future...my college class tomorrow, senior retreat, getting accepted into a real college, retaking the ACT/SAT, what I'm gonna major in, taking the GMAT, living in a big city, what I will call "home" when I move out on my own, making friends. And I think about how one wrong move can drastically alter the course of my future. The problem is, I don't even know what I want out of life or what I really want to do. I know that I want to do something positive and I want to make a difference. International Business, how real is that for me? Being an Optometrist, how rewarding will that be? I'm told that I have to make a lot of money to feel secure, but what's the point if it's not doing something that you enjoy? I know I shouldn't stress myself out because one way or another I'm going to reach that inevitable end: death. But I want to create a life that I can be proud of. "If you're not livin' your dyin'" I want to live. And if I stress myself out along the way, I guess that's my fault. | |

unbleachedblond | 09-08-03 6:30pm money cant buy happiness. i know that ur future is very important to u and planning out what u are to do with ur life will significantly ease ur mind, but ur still a kid. live life. take time to smell the roses. everything will fall in place like its supposed to. ur a smart person - with ur brains, talents and grades, u have the opportunity to go anywhere in life that u want to. hell, if u wanna go to medical school - u could. same with law school. get what i mean? u will be successful in life regardless of what u choose to do. so dont stress urself out by trying to figure out the complex details of life - just take time to enjoy it...cuz as u said, we all die - and the thing that sux about that is that we dont know when it will be our time...so jus enjoy life and live it to the fullest while u have the chance. at least thats my view on things. |
