Congratulations on getting a job! Happy Birthday too!

I read through a few of your past journals. I am going to be 25 in December. I haven't got a degree, but I am working on that as we speak. The only thing is, if I go to university, I will start next year, and will graduate by the time I'm 30. It is going to be very expensive, but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end.

It seems that it is normally expected of people to know what they want to do for the rest of their lives by the time they are 16. At 16, I was making decisions about which courses to study, which would affect the rest of my life. I think that the majority of people don't actually know what they want to do for a long time after, and most people end up doing something which just happens to be there at the time.

I have always loved music, and ended up at music college because it was what I thought I wanted to do. I was following my Dad Mum and sister, who were all musicians. I thought it was expected and I didn't have a clue what else there was to do, and subsequently I cocked it all up, and left the college 2 years early.

After a couple of years of playing around and doing a few different things, I decided that mathematics was the choice for me. But who knows what will happen in the future?

My job is boring aswell, but as that is the case, I try to make the rest of my life interesting. However, I wish I could play gameboy while I was at work. But I think they'd sack me!!

Have fun with the paycheck!
