salsadecacahuete Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 That's exactly what I'm doing. So many people want to grow-up too soon: going to pubs and clubs at 15' date=' learning to drive as soon as they're 17, deciding what they're gonna "be" before they've left school...All being well, I've over 50 years to be an adult, so forgive me if I cling to pre-adulthood a little bit longer.But, you say your parents booted you out, so I guess you had no option, and you've done well for yourself. I'd like to think ,in such a situation, I'd have taken to busking on the cobbled streets of Old Europe, but...I'm just a dreamer. Which makes the point as to who is more radical a moot one, as it's a state of mind. The alternative to bourgeois life is bohemian life, but since we don't have a Latin Quarter and crumbling mansions waiting to be squatted in, this is impossible. So my approach is summed up thus:"He said "you want to turn it on its head by staying in bed", I said "I know I do"[/quote']not really sounding very 'bohemian'... more lazy, seeing as the main reason you give for going to uni is to put off working for 4 years instead of learning about something you're interested in... and who's to say you have over 50 years to be an adult?

NARC Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 But now, a serious point. I'm at Aberdeen Uni. I study what interests me, and I don't have a clue what awaits afterwards. And why the hell should I? I don't want my life to be mapped out before I can have the chance to change it. The prinicpal point of University is to increase knowledge, but also to meet new people who are sharing the same transitional experience. Studying Hispanic Studies has given me the opportunity to spend a year in a country that I like very much, socialise with people from all over Europe, make friends that I hope to keep forever, travel, learn about culture BUT at the same time learn a language that will give me opportunities in the work-market when I'm older. Work is inevitable, but excuse me if I don't like itAnd you know what? I feel superior to all those who haven't done what I'm doing, because I know that I'm LIVING, and they are notPS before the backlash starts, I'm fully aware of obligations or money issues that prevent people from such an experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
