Does that really sound like essential life skillz? i don't know why i picked biology, i've always hated science with a passion, and i'm just not good at it. During my exam today when i was thinking about trivial things like career choice, i should have been elaborating on two theories supporting the movement of sugar into the phloem- apoplastic and symplastic loading. Why the fuck would i want to do that? It's seriously not going to get me anywhere in life.
So as i was stringing various scientific terms together in the hope of a plausible answer - symplasm..osmotic gradient pressure..sink cells? - i came to the more pressing question. LIFE
what will it bring me? where am i going? where will i be in 10 years? will i even be alive then, or will some filthy terrorist have struck sydney, or perhaps climate change and global warming will have created some epic natural disaster - i mean look at the rain today it's just not healthy.
i don't want to end up so modernly cliched- finish school, go to university (not tafe! bleh) live at home for as long as i can to maximise funds. So i've taken the first step away from this by taking a gap year. I plan to leave on the 31st January 08 and come back (maybe?) on the 1st of December 08. I'm not sure about the coming back bit though, i'm sort of basing everything on the fact that i'll find something in europe that's more fab than here.
Or hopefully spending a year with a backpack, near zero euros, filth, bagquets and franglais will give me something to work with. A more svelte frame from malnourishment maybs
i'm quite content with the idea of flatting in paddington though. not a career though mmmmmmmmm
