Looking a head at life.
Lately I've been stopping and looking at my life, and receintly it has me thinking about what the heck am I gonna be doing in 10 years from now. I still work at a grocery store slugging shopping carts through the parking lot, the money is okay, but the hours are usually shit, I manage to get by, but I find myself living pay check to pay check, some times hitting my over draft. I'm 26 years old, I'm still pretty young, but I'm not getting any younger. I've got all kinda of friends around my age who are out there making 50k+ , have their own houses, lives, have the funds to go and enjoy themselves.
Alot say "Oh just go back to school" But thats easier said than done, you don't just "go to school" and make it all better, school costs a shit ton of money, and theres waaaay more options and choices that have a large effect on the outcome than there was 10-20 years ago. First off, I have absolutly no clue as to what I want to do that would require me going back to school, theres nothing that sparks my interest to make me bother. Second, its expensive, its hard to work semi-full time and attend school full time when you're trying to support yourself, I have a student loan that I've been paying since about 2001, and I refuse to borrow any more money for that sorta thing.
Honestly, I have no body to blame but myself really, I just want some sort of change in my life, I'm pretty damn happy living where I'm at with my friends, so moving to another provence just for a lifestyle change is probably out of the question, and way too risky to me.
I dunno, just thought I'd post something semi-serious for a change :P
