When I was younger my friends used to tell me about their plans for the future; how they’d be a superstar, singing songs in front of S Club 7 or a famous actor/actress, playing the character that gets to kiss Tom Cruise. But within all of these expectations, where was the ‘in between’ stage?
Kids assume that after leaving school it’ll be a breeze; they’ll meet someone famous or maybe the love of their life. But we never mentioned about how we would get to the fairy tale ending. There was no mention of college or university, how we’d get the grades to succeed in want we wanted.
Even now people my age assume that when they leave college they’ll find an amazing job first time round. Most people over the age of twenty are still looking for jobs because of the cut backs or lack of qualification. Are kids brought up to expect too much? In this type of world break down, should we expect anything? Food prices rise and so does petrol, but still we remain to lose the opportunity that provides us with the one something we need in order to survive.
