When I grow up...

Aug 12, 2008 02:24

Sometimes, I think my education is kind of wasted on me... I like learning, but I also want to do stuff with my hands. Get down and dirteeeeeeh! I mean... I'd love to learn how to weld. I like doing jobs that get me dirty, require me to do hard labour, sweat and have a certain risk of dying on the job. I would like to work on an oil rig, in construction, be a smith and other stuff like that. I'd need to improve physically in any case. But I'd still love it. Could this be a case of "the grass is always greener on the other side"?
I love using my brain and I'm not bad at it, but I'd also love just to do physical labour. How would I combine that? Work my way through college whilst working in construction? Ah well... Doesn't matter at the moment. I've got to learn how to weld, first. Where could I learn that? Just walk into a garage and ask the owner to teach me how to weld, in return for my free labour there? :P

You can forget this whole bunch of text now, it was just a whimsical thought that floats by several times a day :P But tell me... Don't you occasionally have thoughts like this too?

welding, me, life, what...? o.o okay..., everyday life
