Probable Futures

1. Finish my master's degree in 3 years

2. Have my own car and actually drive it

3. Go to Vietnam

4. Go to Cambodia

5. Go to India

The Plan
Date: June 30, 2016
Time: 10:00am
Where: Lodhi Garden, New Delhi, India
What: We'll see about that.

6. Go to Europe

I cannot possibly forget this now that I've written it down (unless I delete this entry).  It need not follow this order, I just have to remember the rest of the details for number 5. From now on, I'll be busy trying to get to do these things in 5 years. It will be weird reading this post again by then. I will be a lot older. I hope I don't disappoint myself when all that time has passed.

I want to be where I've never been before
I want to be there and then I'd understand
Know I'm right and do it right, could I get to be like that?
I'll know what I don't know, with nothing more to gain
Will I get better or stay the same?
I find I always move too slowly

And all the people who've seen it all before
And all the people who really understand
Know they're right, and have done it right,
Could I get to be like that?

I'll know what I don't know, it's harder everyday
Can't lift a finger, can't hurt a fly
I've found I always move too slowly
One thing's for certain, I'm insecure

I never knew till someone told me that
If that's all you will be, you'll be a waste of time
You've dreamed a thousand dreams, 
None seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty, it must make you 
Sad to know that nobody cares at all. 
They never care at all.
