"Have you thought of what you want to be when you grow up?"

This question still stumps me for the seventeenth year running. I did give it serious thought before, many times, in fact. It is just that maybe what I thought about might not be what I will want to be doing, since I cannot possibly 'test' all of them out and pick the best. In primary school, I vaguely remembered one of my primary school teachers claiming something like 'If you don't decide what you want to do now, it will be too late next time.' With such a threatening sentence, and with almost everyone around me knowing what they are going to do (lawyers, doctors. The usual, I guess), I was kind of lost there. Of course, it went off my mind after a while, popping back now and then, and now, now. So I have not actually gave it any serious more-than-a-day thought, and that sentence from that teacher seemed like a joke.

A serious joke, nevertheless. It does make sense anyway.

I should be doing more important stuff now. Should be.
