What a life is in store for me.
So, lately all I have been thinking about is my future. I don't expect anyone to comment on this because I just need to vent to something.
My future was looking great, i had everything planned out. I was going to go to UVM to study history and become a teacher, but I guess you gotta guve up your dreams sometimes to make the much better descion. My father has asked me to take over the family business, the resturant, when he is ready to retire. I accepted and asked my father what I should go to college to prepare for this job. He then proceeded to tell me that college is not a necessity to me anymore, in other words, I don't have to go to college. He said that i would basically apprentice to him for about 15 years, about until I know how to do everything. My mother on the other hand, thinks i should go to a nearby college just to take some business management course, resturant hospitality and such. This job would be the best desicion because it would make me a lot of money and I would be able to support my family. I talked with my mom for a couple of hours and asked her if there were other things i could do before i go to work for my father, just because i want to try everything before i sign the contract for the rest of my life. I questioned her to see if after college or high school if i could take two years off to try everything i have always wanted to try. i want to travel the world, i want to see greece, i want to snowboard the slopes of new zealand, i want to hike foreign mountains. all of this i will get done befor i even think about working for the rest of my life.
So i have made this decision because it has the better outcome. college is no longer the most important thing in my life. Sometimes you just have to give up your dreams to make a better life. i have done this and my life is changing dramatically.
