Right yes, hello!
Now I'm not sure if I've mentioned this in an earlier post ( and I too lazy to go back and look) but I don't have a clue what I want to do with my life once I finish my A levels in July 2014. Literally no idea!!! It's been playing on my mind a lot recently as college is starting to say we need to start deciding on the future, and when you're someone like me that gets stressy and upset when you don't know what's going on this can be difficult.
Now I've shared this issue with multiple people in the past few months and their responses have generally been the same..."It doesn't matter right now" according to everyone outside of college that I've spoken to (i.e. adult types) that fact I don't know isn't a huge problem because I'm probably going to change my mind about careers and stuff a lot during my life. Which fair enough is probably true, I get bored very easily and can't see it being any different with jobs, I rarely even paint my nails because I get bored of the colour after a few hours and take it off. However I do think that it matters in the not so distant future I'm going to have to start making serious plans about my future life, and if I don't have a start point what am I meant to aim for?!
What do I want to do?
Where do I want to go?
Uni?
Abroad?
Cardboard box on the side of the M42?
To all of these questions (maybe except the last) the answer is "I don't know" and it terrifies me. I'm stuck.
Adult family and friend types say it doesn't matter right now, adult teacher types say it does. I'm confused, undecided and scared! It doesn't help that every other day someone asks me if I know what I want to do, sometimes the same person days apart! I've already said I don't know it won't have changed in the space of 48 hours!!!
So to sum up, right now, I'm a scared, confused16 year old girl that is getting bombarded with questions I don't know the answer to and I don't know what to do!
Do any of you have any help?
Lots of love
Rhi
