i had a heated discussion with my friend, about what i want to do with myself after i get done with the degree that i m doing right now!!!! she is a mathematician type, calculated, organized, well read and informed, resourceful, in short, everything that i m not!!!!
and my constant repetition of 'i m selfish' seems to have worked her brain!!! [ok i m selfish, i'll explain some other time.] so what happened is that in a passing moment [one of the moments when i turn insane] i told her that i have no idea what i want to do, may be i'll leave software engineering, and take up photography!!!!! [well, switching fields is my favorite job :)] and she goes like, S you need to think of your family, you need a career that will pay you well... blah blah blah!!! it seems like she thought that i am unaware of my responsibilities towards my family, my society, my country and people!!! no i am not!!!
i m only a bit confused, because even if my heart is into software engineering [trust me i really love reading all those documents about projects and requirements. even trying and failing to write programs, coming up with new methods for making people work!!!] but my mind is not into it!!! [disappointing, usually peoples hearts are not into things!!!] but i still don't know what i want to do with myself!!! and i m ok with it!!
i don't want to make a difference by being different! i don't want to earn loads of money and having no time to spend it! i don't want to become famous! i am not a genius!
i am just myself! and that's all i want to be! myself! i like to do things on impulse, i follow my feelings, i live to fulfill my dream! thats it....... selfish, when did i say i was not?
so the things ended with we not talking to each other!! [childish!!!yeah] and i m refusing to explain her further what is it that i want!!!!
and this one is my favorite.... [i m not going to make any difference anyway!!!]
