What do I do with my life after university?

Postby Spike on Tue Nov 25, 2008 4:11 pm

I hope I'm not the only one thinking *what the hell is there out there*...

What have other people got planned for life after student life?

Go to China, grab one of the numerous jobs out there (mostly teaching) in time for my tourist visa to be made a work visa, and stay for a while. Then work / volunteer at Shanghai EXPO 2010. Eventually see how much I like being there after all, and either call it home, or move on.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

Get a job, move to the US, and make some money.

I might live in a bin and completely reject the world out there.

Hmmm, I hear turning to drink is sometimes an option..... either that or sweeping the streets.
...and as the red red robin of time goes bob bob bobbin under the snowplough of eternity.... I see it's time to end

Life... after... University...? After...? You mean there's an after...? Whoa...

I'm in my ninth year at University now. Looking for someone to pay me to do a tenth. The real world is for wimps... and people who actually want to earn some money.
...then again, that is only my opinion.

Hmm I'm hoping that by the time I get out of higher education the world will be in economic meltdown and political ferment. I've been reading this book by this guy, see, and things were sort of similiar in his day. Says all I have to do is shoot up a beer hall and get myself arrested, in a couple of years I'll be out and able to plan for my new world order. After that it's all gravy, so long as i don't spoil it by fighting a war on two fronts.

Don't make any major plans unless you know exactly what it is you want to do out of instinct.

I still don't know, but I'm not doing badly --- and a year is a long, long time... Never mind 40.

Chill and enjoy it.
So someone asked me "What is it you do?". I thought about it for a minute. Then I thought about it a little more. All the while I probably looked like I was staring in to space, struggling for an answer. And I was. There was only one response I could really give.
