Subjects, courses, careers, colleges, jobs, choices, choices, choices, choices, choices.
I'm 16 years old and I may sound like an apathetic unmotivated teenage slob but my plans for the weekend are about as far as my decision making goes (taking for granted that my parents are going to provide transportation). And it's not because I don't have any interest, I have scoured the web looking for courses that both interest me and would provide me with a steady income in the future. Eventually I found a course that I would love to do and I had my whole career and life mapped out when my Dad asked "What would be your second choice?" A SECOND CHOICE?
Now, I am only in TY so I have another year or two to decide on a course, but still, in order to choose my subject choices I have to have a rough idea. I have decided writing this blog that I am not going to offer some wise advice. I don't think I'm qualified and I'm sure you have heard it all before. So I am going to end with a quote:
“Only those who decline to scramble up the career ladder are interesting as human beings. Nothing is more boring than a man with a career.” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago: 1918-1956
