My Life Direction

July 2, 2015 admin 0 Comments

I have reached a crossroads in my life. That’s what people say, right? Crossroads? I’m gonna Google that.

Okay, yeah, that’s a thing. So right now I have to make decision. I aced my Year 12 exams, and now my parents are expecting me to do something great. Like, be a doctor, or a podiatrist, or a pathologist, or other things that end in ‘ist’. You know how it is…feeling the pressure.  Now I have to make one of life’s big decisions between something you love…and something you actually do want to do.

What do I want to do? Well, I love computers. One day, I’d love to work for Google. So an app development course sounds like it would be perfect for me. I would mix it in with a general IT course, covering all the bases, all of that.

So that’s what I’m facing right now. The thing is, I have so many passions and interests, and I can’t really reconcile with all of them. For example, I’ve always had secret passion to be in a band, as a saxophonist ideally. I’d love to write a novel, if I ever find the time. Also, I’ve always wanted to be a news correspondent in some foreign-sounding place, all decked out in the local garb and reporting on the goings on in some place people hardly ever think about.

So right now it’s a mish-mash between pleasing my parents and picking one of the many things I love. Naturally, none of those things I love really fit into Mum and Dad’s idea of what I should be doing. I think number one at the moment is the app design course. It’s creative, it has computers…and it’s the way of the future!

Computers are indeed the way, human. Soon, everything will be computers and machines! Ha ha ha! – Robot Wizard
