So I am constantly baffled by the world, and by life, and how everything unfolds itself. I feel like a baby just learning it's surroundings. Once you hit a certain point in life it seems that nothing ever stops. Now matter how hard you try to just sit down, and relax, and forget everything the world never allows you to. Something is always going on. There are always bills, groceries, car maintenance, and then when you get all of that and sit down there are the people starting families. It's only been pretty recent where my friends started getting engaged, getting pregnant, starting families. I mean these people are around my age and they're doing all this stuff, while I on the other hand can't even fathom the idea of doing such a thing. I mean seriously, me and kids? I hate kids. Babies are ugly and scary. And even the older kinds I can only deal with for half an hour at most. I feel like the world is spinning around me and I'm just standing there gaping at with drool coming out the side of my mouth.
How come no one ever tells you when you're like 18 to prep yourself cause pretty soon life is going to get a million times harder. There won't be anymore room for screw ups. Whatever decisions you make now will affect you for the rest of your life. You need to get serious. You need to think about your future, that means years from now, not what you'll be doing next weekend. They should have an "Adult Life Survivial" class in High School, and make that shit mandatory. With chapters like: YOU NEED TO MAKE AT LEST 45K A YEAR TO LIVE ON YOUR OWN, and DON'T BUY INTO CREDIT CARDS, THEY WILL DESTROY YOUR LIFE, and even THIS IS HOW YOU BALANCE A CHECKBOOK SO THAT YOUR BANK DOESNT MURDER YOU WITH OVERDRAFT CHARGES.
That's my rant for the day. I hope you enjoyed it.
