Post Script...

It’s a strange thing having easy access to the internet after going soo long without it. It’s like going home and finding that all your friends are still there, slightly changed but still the same people. This incidentally happened too and was quite unexpected.

You would have thought that being at home with nothing to do but spend time surfing the interweb and in consequence updating this site. Turns out that the fewer things there are to do the fewer things you actually do! Which incidentally means that this site is purely a means of putting off other work for me, a way of keeping my brain stimulated whilst avoiding academic trials.

On that point I managed to fail an exam by two marks! Not what I wanted to happen, but something that I felt was almost inevitable with the current problem of me + exams + stress and insomnia = failure! But I can resit it, not to worry I WILL pass and everyone’s faith in me will be restored. Interesting point; everyone that I have spoken to has assumed that I passed with flying colours, and yet all of them have done better than me. I seemingly have a gift of appearing far unfaltering than I am or maybe they see me as I should be instead of how I am.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I know its pretty cliché but I’ve been thinking about it recently, it came to my attention that I actually have 4 “plans” all of them independently achievable however combined they basically have the same probability as a monkey learning English. My plans have changed drastically in just a few short years; they went from at one point wanting to be a famous musician, that didn’t happen when I succeeded in getting a place in law school. Another was to become a journalist, I actually went as far as enrolling on a journalism course but then decided that there was no future in it and that to really make a mark I should do something that benefits humanity.

At this point I was at university and decided that I could actually do some good with my degree and protect human rights all around the world and help failing countries get back on their feet through humanitarian endeavours. This is currently one plan, it means being rather less well of than other lawyers but would do something for the world.

Plan number 2 is to go into law in this country, try to carve out a respectable career in an as yet undefined specialty, get married, have kids and live happily ever after in a job that makes me want to kill myself.

Plans 3 is graduate, work for 6 months as a junior at a law firm then spend at least 6 months travelling Europe then America. After which I would study to take the US bar and work in a transatlantic law firm getting rich and spending my free time doing pro bono work for human rights organisations.

Plan 4 is to graduate then leave law all together and set up a business somewhere on the south coast or move to America.

Currently plan 1 s the only one that is in the “out” column. I am incredibly bad at making decisions, especially life changing ones and so even I don’t have a clue what will be happening in 10 years.

Please, please, please try this.

The fickleness of life is astonishing. That one instance in time can change your life, whatever it may be, meeting someone, doing something or someone else’s deed affecting you. It shows that the world is truly random, but however at the same time is truly random, but also strangely ordered with cause following effect. Our lives seem to be an analogy of the quantum theory on a very base level, random at first glance, but look deeper and you see form and function, deeper still however and things turn truly random once again, things that cannot possibly be quantified.

Some people seem to have mastered the cause effect theory of life, using it to their personal advantage, manipulating the world around them so that things turn out as they wish. Others have learned to let the current take them where they want to go, instead of trying to change it themselves. There is one more group however, these people appear to immune to the causal reality and seem to use the inherent instability and randomness of the quantum level to affect the world in confounding ways, somehow changing it without it changing them. These people are rare however as it is pure fluke that they have this ability, and I’m sure not all of them understand what they could do if they wanted to.

The basic class of people, in which I include myself and almost everyone that I know, have to persevere for years to even attempt to master the most basic of these attributes even though I have the feeling that to master just one aspect would take more than one lifetime.

Which is why those precious few are usually the ones that find that "Pot of Gold" true love and we're all left out in the cold clinging to the scraps that we can scavenge.
