What do you want to do in life?

The title of this blog is a question I've been getting asked a lot. I've been asked this by my parents, my brother, my friend, and my school. The truth is I have no clue what I want to do in life. And if you ask me I don't really think its a good question to ask a 17 year old. I know I want to have a family in the future, and a great career. But i really don't know if that will happen to me. There are so many things in life that you don't have control of.

There are things that can alter your life, and change your plans for the future. One thing is certain you will meet people in life that will have a positive impact and a negative impact on your life. I think the strange part of life is the unpredictability we all face. Life is so unpredictable we don't when its going to end.

In conclusion I believe its not a fair question to ask a 17 year old what he wants to do in life because, no one growing up really knows what they want to do in life. I remember last year I was really into political science. I thought that is what I was going to do in life, politics. But one year later i could care less about any of it. I'm not trying to put down anyone with this blog. If you believe that you will be a doctor or a cop or anything else, go for it. All I'm saying is that there so many obstacles in life that you'll need to overcome.

I'm Out of Ideas

I really have no clue what to talk about in this weeks blog. Its kinda of sad that I cant come up with one topic to blog about. So I'm blogging about not knowing what to blog about. Truth be told I really could care less about blogging.I just don't really see the point in it. I understand there are some nice things with blogging but for the most part I think the world wouldn't miss blogs.


I believe if you have to say your point of view on things, why don't you just say it to the person sitting right next to you in class. Twitter is also something i do not understand. its pretty much the same concept as blogger. Facebook on the other hand can useful. You can stay in touch with people you haven't seen in a while, such as family and friends.


In conclusion I don't get why our school thinks that this stuff is important. I truly believe that we could just decuss things in class instead of just posting things online. If you don't agree with what I have to say then thats fine but the only reason I posted this was because my College Prep class starts in two hours, I really needed to talk about something that I wouldn't get in trouble. Bye.

Homecoming

There are two things I look forward to when I come back to school. One is seeing all my friends again, and two homecoming. I love homecoming, i like to see what everyone is going to wear and all the games we get to do the day of the game. I remember when i was little going school, and looking at all the tp. Its that short of stuff that gets me excited for homecoming.
This year will be very different for me this homecoming because it will be my last. I want this homecoming to be the best one I've ever had. So far my senior has been a blast and next week should be week to remember. Next week will be the last time we get to dress up funny at school.
So in conclusion I can not wait for next week. Its going to be really fun, and I'm looking forward to it. And I'm also a little down about the fact that this will be my last homecoming. But that won't stop me from having a great time.

My senior year.

Senior year is supposed to be the most relaxed year in our high school career. Senior year is the last year we get to hang out with our friends.My senior year is going to be a blast. I want to have as much fun as I can. This year i would like try new things, and get to know more of my classmates.

I'm looking forward to homecoming week, and seeing my older brother up in Ames. I'm also looking forward to graduation. Of course everyone is looking forward to that. But after i leave Van Meter to go to college there will be few things that I will miss. Like hanging out with my friends, a few teacher's, and going to watch the high school football games.

This upcoming year is going to be very different for me because I'm going to move out of my house and start college and then when summer hits next year ill be going to Europe with my friends. My older brother is going to move out of state to start grad school. He plans on going to Wisconsin for his grad school. After he moves away i plan on visiting every month. So this year should be fun and also very interesting. I cant wait to see what lies ahead in the next year.
