The Future

So everyone across the country have or soon will be making the many mile trips to there new Universities. New chapters will be opened, New bridges crossed, Virginitys will be lost and what for? A Degree in the History of Taxology?, A strange Unrequited love for Southampton? A Damn load of debt? no, Its beacause this is the next step in that young persons life.

This has been on my mind alot recently (No, as interesting as it sounds Taxology is not something that keeps me awake till the morning hours!), i have been thinking alot about the future. Where will it lead me? My Friends? People i have grown up with?

I find it fascinating to think that one friend could be the Prime Minister (And would probably do a much better then Mr Brown), one friend could be a Solicitor, a Doctor, a Sports person, a Drug Dealer? Who knows!

As they all go away to different corners of the country, i wonder if this is on there minds or all they are worried about will be how will i live without Mum doing the washing, i hope the Girls are fit and were is the cheapest bar?

One friend could for some reason decide they in fact do quite like Taxology and make a living out of it, another could have a musical Epiphany and decide that they do infact quite like Bon Jovi! There are literally so many possible outcomes from the next few years.

As well as being interesting, i also find it scary. To think that our futures with one bad move, one bad roll of the Dice will see us thrown by the scruff of the kneck from the top of a corporate Bank job all the way down to being Farmer Jim with Sheep!

Ok maybe that was a bit OTT but still it is very scary. I like to think that in the future i will have a wife and children, a nice car and a lovely house, But what if i end up with a Crap Flat and an Alien for company? That would, to be honest SUCK!

Of course this is all in the future, but i really think it should not be something we think about in the future...but think about it now, in the present!
