5. start computer animation course whilst working at several games companies as a tester.

7. sidenote - be sure not to get married, have kids or "settle down" before i am earning over £50,000 a year, im serious, and even then im abit skeptical, you dont really need a piece of paper to tell two people that they love each other, if she wants to get married and i dont then it obviously wasnt meant to be.
of course when you set things out like i have they tend to never go to plan, funny how that happens lol.
id like to add to my list:
also over the summer i will be bulking up some more and just generally becoming a healthy being than the one i look at in the mirror each day, i am happy with my body, its slim, sexy etc but i know i can do better and i intend to, just once i get this stupid assignment out of the way lol.
most likely wont have kids cause i just dont feel i cud ever look after someone else and provide for them, its different for a gf/wife cause they are also providing and know what they're doing, having to teach someone from scratch everything that i learnt from my parents and outside influences i would find a chore rather than enjoying the rest of the life i have and will excel at.
also not to get married, and no im not trying to be different or trying to non conform to conforming cause im well aware that that is still conforming to non conforming, r u still with me? lol.
me and some of my co-workers were talking about marriage and one of the customers pipped in and told me she thought i was right, her and her bf have been together for 20 years and they havent thought of getting married cause everything is great the way it is, they feel the same way as me, that a piece of paper cant tell u that u love someone. and for all those saying "well the religious significance blah blah blah" please tell it to someone who cares. by your definition if religion governs everything(and thank god(pun intended)that it doesnt) then we shudnt love someone until we want to marry them, just because someone doesnt want to marry doesnt mean that their love for each other is any less than the love between two ppl who are married.
its all subjective really, love is subjective, i personally see marriage as a status symbol, in a world where status is everything nowadays, maybe in the olden times marriage meant something but today to me it means nothing. footballers selling their wedding pictures or exclusive rights to be at the wedding, doesnt sound romantic to me. and for us mere mortals, im aware im gunna garner alot of negative feedback when i say this, women dont want their wedding to be upstaged by one of their gfs weddings which just happens to cost more and oh shes got those new petunias that only bloom once a year at her wedding, see where im going here? it becomes less about love and more about materialness, who has the better wedding, thats the only thing people care about. some of you may say thats not the case but you tell me that you wudnt want your wedding to be extravagant to say the least, you ask women how they imagine their weddings to be and its almost always the same answer "i want it to be big blah blah blah".
to me i think the people who dont want to get married prove their love more than those who want to get married, you lot are conforming to a ritual which was once sacred but is now all but a farce.
and yes im aware there are ppl who have been married for a long time(my parents included for 26 yrs and my grandparents 50 yrs this july)and still love each other as much as they did on the first day they got together. however theres one key difference, they didnt have everything us younger generation have today, they actually valued what they had and that includes love, today we can just nag our parents for whatever we want(not me though i work lol)and they give to us, this gimme gimme gimme attitude today really makes me sick tbh, and im rambling so let me get to the point.
marriage isnt right for everyone, to me its a waste, it means nothing to have a piece of paper telling u u love someone. i cud proudly stand up and say i love my gf without feeling embarrassed or ashamed that we're not married. "omg if they have kids they're gunna be illegitimate", blow me, they're still gunna be more loved and cherished than your kids and we'll actually discipline them properly(im not talking whipping or smacking here)and they will grow up to be very powerful and influenctial people.
and like darth i want to finish my book, eventually lol.
wow i only wanted to add abit to my list, i guess i got carried away lol.
yeah, thats all, for now anyways.
p.s. i know i contradicted myself.
