why is everyone i know so concerned with getting on with their lives? all anyone seems to be talking about is going to the best university as soon as possible, getting a good job as soon as possible and growing up. do i sound a little immature? i want to grow up as much as just about anyone but i know i'm only going to be young once. i don't want to worry about anything next year except working, travelling, maybe upgrading and applying for Uni. i knew when i was as young as six that i was going to take a year off and go hit up some far away place. that plcae used to be Japan but since i went there from christmas i've set my sights on Montreal, Australia, or England. It looks now like I'm going to be spending a couple monthes in Scotland where Alex stayed. i can't wait to be off on my own and all, and i think thats part of the reason that everyone wants to go and grow up in uni so fast. maybe its all because we're all sick of our friends and families. Maybe, everyone is just kinda insecure and wants to see if they actually can make it on their own.
