Before I finish high school I want one thing and everything. I want to continue to develop my friendships to the point that I stay connected to my friends for the rest of our lives. I honestly hope I have a class with my best man right now. I hope that he will tell stories of us clowning around as high school juniors. I hope that my future-child's godfather tells my kid about life through stories of me in my high school youth.
The number one thing I want to do in college before I graduate is this: start the end of my life. Some of you may see that as a boring goal, but I find it exhilarating. While I don't plan on finding my dream girl in college I do plan on getting a job or getting into a graduate school that will allow me to grow as a person, let me move up in the world, and keep me, my future wife, and our future children more than comfortable.
Before I die. Wow. Thinking down the road here.
Whenever I think about this I remember a story I heard when I was in the third grade.
"A teacher walked up to me and said, 'What do you want to be when your grow up?' I said happy. She said, 'I don't think you understand the question.' I said, 'I don't think you understand life'"
So that is what I want to be when I grow up. Some might say that they want to skydive or bungee jump. Some might say that they want to start and raise a family. Yet none of that matters to me. I don't care if I have kids or find my dream girl, but if I am happy. Who cares, right?
