So, disregarding the poll: 5 years ago, where did you think you'd be, and how does that match up to where you are now?

I almost put this in Yore since I prefer 18+, I doubt 8 year olds thought seriously about what would happen in 5 years. But I didn't wanna exclude anyone. So please state your age when you reply.

Right I would have been 12, so I don't remember really thinking about life that came about more so when I was 14/15

I'm 19 now and I thought I'd be in uni, with a bunch of friends, partying, getting closer and closer to a career in psychiatry.

Now I'm STILL in college 2 year longer than I should have been because I made some bad choices. I'm friendless. I haven't been drunk since November 2007 and I've totally stepped away from a career in counselling because 1 teacher told me I couldn't do it. Now I'm heading for teaching.

i thought i would be more successful, have graduated, have a woman companion,  not so poor. alas life is not always what we plan.

nope never. i never thought that i would be pregnant, that id be engaged to the sweetest guy or that i would hate my parents

I was 15 then. I thought I'd be at uni in a different city, studying Sociology. Instead, I'm a Political Science graduate. Well, almost, still waiting for the results of some recent examinations. I didn't think that much about the future, 5 years seemed like such a long time.

16.
I imagined I'd be completing school and writing, neither of which I'm doing at the moment.


-- Posted by BehindBars at 3:41 am on July 10, 2009

Well I'm 18 now, I honestly thought I'd be dead by now. I've never had any long term plans for the future.
