Hello Readers (referring to myself when i read over this again),
I am entering into my last semester of third year, preparing for another exam season and I am bored. While many before my degree would argue that getting a degree would make you more employable and guarantee you to better job prospects in the future, I've found this to be untrue. I have friends without a degree on a £32,000 per year salary without going through the £40,000 debt, it does make me wonder whether or not university was for the best, if anything it has exposed me to all the higher society of people in the UK and has helped me realise that although I may want to make a difference to the world I'll probably end up as the countless before me making a drop in the limitless ocean of people, yet I do still have a slight belief in me that I may well outperform my fellow man and make a name for myself.
I have found now to my satisfaction, I have matured, I look upon my first year self in disgrace, for then I did not look to the future and had no care for it, I feel now a night binge drinking is repulsive and much rather enjoy the classic English interaction of a pub visit with friends. I do wonder how much of my friends at university I am going to keep in contact with, ever since I went Canada I've found myself much more distant with people and I can honestly say there isn't one person I've met over the three years there that after 5 years time, I think I'm going to still be in contact with (Setting aside a friend I made in Canada, Jamie), most my friends are still from Burton, which surprises me but even them when I get a job I don't predict i'll still be in contact with all of them in 5 years time.
Right now i'm preparing for an interview I have for an important job tomorrow, it would give me a great starting point in life and I really am happy i've been given the opportunity. I need to study & time manage more I've learnt about myself during third year if i'm going to achieve the 2:1 I am aiming for.
