It's amazing to see how much an individual can change in a year. It's also amazing to see how much time you can waste in a year. At the time I wrote my last post, I would have sincerely prayed that today I would be far more prepared for college entrance exams. I'm not particularly. I would have hoped to have landed some significant internship or academic endeavor. I haven't.
I wonder how one's own standard for greatness lead to mediocrity. As long as I'm on an Eliot kick, I wonder "if you're not in over your head, how tall are you?" I've decided I'm really an idiot, at least. Most of my less productive endeavors would have been better spent on school and getting ready to take ACT, ACT, BST, etc.
Oh well.
I was fairly certain a week ago that I was going to apply to intern with TeenPact next year, but Dad and a few friends have pretty much convinced me I need to take a school year. Take chemistry and geometry at a community college this fall, physics and algebra II next spring (and take a couple of tests), work for McCain or the state GOP this fall, somewhere in Little Rock a little next spring, maybe Rep. Boozman's office through the summer, apply for college and take Trig in the fall, then apply to intern with TeenPact the next spring (2010).
Then I'll graduate in 2014, get married in 2015, graduate law school in 2016, be in a comfortable job y 2020, be involved in politics by 2026, write a book by 2030, have a decent salary by that time, have a decent retirement savings by 2036, clip my toenails in 2039, have a haircut at 10:00 AM, January 19, 2041, be involved in President Philip Williamson's reelection campaign that year, retire by 2046, get my golf handicap under 20, move somewhere comfortable, travel the country making Clintonesque speaking fees for speaking engagements and book signings, and die in 2075.
I'll probably get hit by a bus tomorrow. |
