Drivers ed has commenced and it is just as boring as ever. Today wasn't such a bad day though.
School went by pretty quick until after lunch. 7th period seemed to drag on forever. Public speaking always drag on, but study hall wasn't too bad since we played bingo most of the time.
After school I got another good workout in and went over to Graz's to watch Barcelona vs Real Madrid. Barcelona tied but won on aggregate and it was a pretty good game. Like always we had a good time and some good laughs.
I kept thinking all day though. I thought about the future. From tomorrow to next year to ten years from now. I wondered what I'm going to do with my day off tomorrow and I wondered what college I'll be at next year and I wondered where I'll be and what I'll be doing ten years from now.
The thing I decided about all three
Is that I hope I'm happy wherever I am. Whether its tomorrow being at the hockey game, or next year being at St. Johns or Drexel, or ten years from now working as an accountant in NYC. I want to be happy.
I hope next year to be at Fordham in the Bronx studying both accounting and journalism.
Ten years from now I hope to be settled down in a comfortable career with a family. The career can be either accounting or some sort of journalism, hopefully investigative journalism. I want desperately to write and make a living doing so. Where I live depends. I love Pittsburgh, but I love New York so much. I also like the beach, so Hilton Head Island would be a perfect fit. Wherever I live I want my family to be with me. A wife and two or three kids sounds okay to me.
But who am I kidding? Life is too unpredictable to anticipate where I'll be ten years from now.
Happiness is the key though. What makes you happy can vary from day to day. Sometimes happiness can be found in the least likely of places. Sometimes it's right next to you. Keep your eyes open, or you might just miss out.
Now I must focus my attention back to driver brown...
