Where To Now?

So it seems that as students entering our scary last year of high school, we are asked that terrible question by relatives, strangers and teachers. 
What do you want to do when you leave? 
I DON'T KNOW!! Honestly this is something I get asked CONSTANTLY and have absolutely no clue whatsoever. I almost always answer with something completely different every time, and as I change my mind almost every single day, it's normally on absolute opposite ends of the spectrum. 
Last year it was to be a game developer, then an archaeologist, now it's probably an aspiring adventurer, author, nanny and mum. Personally, I feel like there is far too much I want to do in my lifetime to narrow it don't to just one thing. I'd like to start a business, write novels, comics and movies. I want to decorate houses, design clothes, and travel literally every single corner of the earth. (Because there's nothing I love more than that world map!) And yes, having kids (emphasis on the S) is something that definitely NEEDS to happen in my adulthood. So if I had to give you (whoever you are) some advice today, it'd be this;
Don't limit your lifetime. You have an absolute abundance of opportunity on this physical earth. Use it. And never, EVER, let someone force you to choose one thing to complete in your lifetime. Do as much as you see fit. And enjoy. Welcome to another epiphany moment, oh dear. 

Love, Scout.

Hello!

So I guess this is the beginning. Of something Iv'e finally decided to just bite the bullet and do. And I guess today just pushed me over the edge. Because I decided I wasn't happy. With who I was, what I was doing and the way I make such a big deal about the most minuscule of problems. And I guess that's okay. Because it's put down so badly throughout society that we have to grit our teeth and move on and I've had enough of that. We're allowed to be angry. But I've decided I want to embrace life's little miracles (so cliche) and rather than fret and fret over something I can't change - just take a deep breath, and relax. 

Hi. And with that extremely cliche, random and kind of awkward epiphany moment, I welcome you, whoever you may be and how you found this, to my blog. The aspiring adventurer. So maybe tag along, as I try to calm myself (via this rather therapeutic means) through my final year of high school. Thanks for listening.
Love, Scout.
