so anyhow the past 2 weeks have given me plenty of time to think about things other than math which is really bad unfortunately but thinking is better than rotting in army. so anyhow anyways. yes thinking. thinking about what i wanna do in uni, what i wanna study, which uni i wanna go to. all that good stuff. mind boggling shit really. it seems our simple teenage life has suddenly become so much more complicated. all we used to bother about was when is our next IA due, when is our next test, when is our next exam. a routine that spanned the duration of our youth. for 12 years of our lives, we just studied for our next test, our next exam, worrying only if our teachers would scold us if we handed in stuff late or if we skipped class, worrying when is our next match or performance for our respective CCA's, worrying about our friends, worrying whether the person we have some huge infatuation with would even talk to us. for 12 years, although it didnt seem like it at the time, our lives were relatively simple and straightforward. easy without complications. do well, move on, how good a secondary school we go to, pass pass pass, go on to do A levels or IB, IA's IA's IA's and then the big bad exam. and suddenly, 12 years is over. our basic education is done, finished. we all heaved a big sigh of relief after our IB papers and we thought we were free. and then suddenly, the bigger more important decisions suddenly come rushing at us. which university are we gonna go to. which country? waht courses? wham bam thank you maam. all these questions, so many options and yet we struggle to find an answer. O levels/IGCSE and then A levels/IB. that was the easy part. suddenly our lives jsut became so much more complicated, so much harder. all these paths have open up. how are supposed to choose which path to take?
