Everything By 17

       Sometimes we look in the mirror wondering what we should do. Not just wondering what were going to do today, but what were going to do with our lives. I'm only 17 (thank god) and yet a thanksgiving party I was looked at and asked what i'm going to do, what college i'm going to go to, what I'm going to study, and it almost seamed that if you didn't have a significant answer then your were already wasting your life away. You aren't going to receive the 5 seconds of phrase and support towards your already made up mind and future. They had forgotten that I haven't even taken my ACT and I haven't been demeaned and told what I needed to work on yet. As if the fact that most of our futures depend on a test that's going to tell us where were going to go and waist away thousands of dollars, wasn't bad enough these days. Now we need to already have it figured out and we needed to get everyone's opinions about it, 

at only age 17. 

I truly wish that I didn't have friends loosing there hair at 17 over the stress of our generations mind determination at what, 16? our we now suppose to have our future decided and picked right out to be told and handed to everyone in a pamphlet as if nobody lived, changed there mind, and falls in love with an idea or something new. We can no longer leave our books and stories open; it's as if they have to be written before we even get the chance to pick up then pen.

  

The truth is do I really look like someone who wants their entire life planned out by age 17. I honestly think people who plan there life out at age 17 are the ones who might end up a little unhappier because they never left anything to chance, or maybe the got what they wanted and they've wanted it for so long that maybe it seams boring.
In this photo is me running into a band who was filming there music video, If I had planned this day out I would have never gone to the beach, I would have never met them or have been in there video, and I would have one less story to tell.
