peek into my life

I've planned my whole life. This is what I want, and I'm going to get it. No matter what.

I'm going to finish my VCE at school in November, and recieve an ENTER score of 90. I'll be shocked to do so well, and extremely pleased. After enjoying free life for three months I'll enroll in a Bachelor of Schience at Monash University and spend three years completing my degree. After finishing up at uni, I'll get a temporary job as a lab assistent which within months leads to a permanent position as a research scientist. I'll make an amazing chemical discovery and people will right about me in American Scientist. After completing this amazing part of my life I will be around 29 and have already met the love of my life. We'll take a leave, traveling to Egypt, Borneo, Rio, London, Berlin and Poland. We get married on the way. My famous discovery will lead to many job offers and so I will end up working in London. After 10 years as the best scientist in the world I'll decide that my work is done and will go into a job as a science journalist. 

Sounds perfect to me, can't wait for my life. I'd love to hear all about yours.

change is coming

So I'm headed for the home stretch. Two terms down and just a few weeks to go till I can say that I've graduated from high school. My new life will begin, and all those years wishing I didn't have to go to school in the morning will be reality. I can't explain it exactly but since the start of this school year I have this yearning to live my life. That didn't make sense did it?

It's like a burning in my heart that makes me excited and nervous at the same time. Perhaps it's that for the past 6 years, life has felt like a schedule. Wake up, school, eat, study, sleep. Now that my world is about to shift into an unpredictable version of what I always wished for, I feel like I will be able to express my inner self, meet new people and be the person I always wanted to be. Don't get me wrong, school is a big part of my future plans, but the hope and emotions that are around the corner have driven my heart into overdrive, and it's ready for a new beginning.

back to the future

Watching cartoons as kids, we were brainwashed by television, to think about hover cars, talking robots and teleportation booths as the things we would find if we were to travel to..lets say, the year 3000. As a child I grew up wishing I was born in another lifetime, so that I could be one of those lucky people alive in the future. Ironicly, if things keep going in the direction they are headed now, the world in the year 3000 will be the complete opposite to "The Jetsons" and "Futurama", if it still exists.

We are obviously slowly running out of fuel, apparently it will be all gone by 2050. So how are we going to fuel those hover cars? And Global warming. You've heard the speech. Then there's the next problem, the world is in a financial crisis, funding for projects is going to decrease...who is going to fund the out there inventions like teleporting devices? Now..to the point. The point..? Well, I suppose my point is that if you want the world to end up as awesome as "The Jetsons" have got it, use less power, save water, walk to work and spend more money. Unless you're the selfish type and don't care since you won't live long enough to see it. Either way, you can always dream :P An odd topic to rant on about..I was inspired by my childhood.

Under a starless sky,
