Happy 2013 darling followers, it's been such a long time since I've written anything, to be honest, I've been a bit snowed under with Uni and stuff, as usual. I've only got 6 months left until I graduate and, despite the initial purpose of this blog, I still have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my life after university. Oops!
I envy those people who have vocational degrees, nurses, doctors, lawyers and the like, the ones who have a pre-planned career path and, even if they decide they want to do something else at the end of it all, still have a direction. Perhaps, rather than try desperately to work out what i am supposed to be, what I should be doing is escaping the bindings of education, after all, I've been in education since I was five years old and I'll be 22 when I graduate.
I've never really traveled and I'd love to. I adore wandering about foreign places, absorbing the history, trying (and usually failing) to learn a little of the language, but I don't think I would want to do it alone, I feel it's better to share these things with others. I've thought about working the bar on cruise ships, if I were away for a year, I could potentially visit 70+ different ports, make friends, and yes it would be hard work, but I'm not adverse to a little of that.
Perhaps I'll work for a couple of years and save up some money and piss off to somewhere in the sun, America, South Africa, Australia, I've family in all three. I can always go back to education, back to working, but I'm only going to be young once, I don't want to be a wife, a mother, a home-owner, and still be pining for things I should have done when I had the chance.
So for a while, I think I'll focus on getting through the last few months of university, and then just see where life takes me...
