GhostofSalvtore Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 Have ya ever had that fear or wonder that you were going to just be a nobody when you got of age. Like you would be in a going-nowhere-job, never really making any sort of impact on yourself or anyone around you? Like maybe your in highschool and you really don't have plans for the future..(not saying thats its me, because I am goin to college to do something) But the thought has crossed my mind a few times. Or maybe you are in that sort of situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiroMunkie Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 [size=1]Yeah, I think about that all of the time. I am pretty sure I am going to be one of those people who lives in his parent's basement, eating spaghettios, while watching old daytime TV re-runs... or something to that effect. I really do not think that all I have done will amount up to much. Not in this world. When ethics overrules hypocrisy then I shall succeed, but since I feel the obligation not to lie when filling out applications and such, I do not get much of anywhere.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fall Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 I don't have any plans for the future yet. I'm in year nine, I've been studying three elective subjects for two years, and I'm on the verge of failing two of them. The other one I don't get a report on. The thought has crossed my mind a fair few times. Especially in the circumstances I've landed myself in now. I'm just going about my life at the moment. I'll wait till it happens. [i]If[/i] it happens. May aswell [i]try[/i] and make a purpose out of your life. Living as a "no-body"- will only happen if you want it to happen. By trying to make a purpose out of it, you've already made a purpose for yourself.

AzureWolf Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 I had this feeling when I got rejected from the college of my choice. I figured, "If I'm not good enough to do what I want now, who's to say I'll ever be good enough?" Yeah, but that didn't last long, since worrying never gets you anywhere. I quickly recovered from that and rememberd that I want to contribute something extraodinary to this world and join the ranks of Einstein and Shrodinger! Watch me! I'm going to become legend!

amibasuki Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 [FONT=arial]heh, I have no clue as to what I want to do for a living once I'm up and out of college, but I sure don't want to be a good-for-nothing all my life, lol. if all else fails, I'll go work in the Peace Corps.; sounds like an interesting job anyway. :mrt:[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicoTranzrig Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 [COLOR=darkblue]Way back in middle and high school, I had people saying to me, "Oh, you have so much potential, you're super smart...why aren't you using it?" I thought I was some kind of inferior person who won't be able to excel in anything. Sometimes I still think that way because I'm so divided on what I want to do later on and if I can really do all those things. I've noticed I can get far but it's always not enough for me or someone else.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Na'dou Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 I often get that feeling at the thought of me not getting a job with Disney when I get older. What if they don't want me apart of their team? What if I can't draw good enough for them? But my mom says that I have plenty of time to worry about that. I also worry that if I did get a job with them, where would the cheapest place be to live in California. I'd want to live in Burbank, but that may be too expensive...What if I get there and I end up a hoeboe woman?:nervous: Ahhhhh!..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Fou Lu Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 i don't get thoughts like any of that at all. ok maybe i'm being a little bit weird but that's not how i think, i try and stay positive most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Na'dou Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 I have a lack of confidence. I've succeeded in many things, but I never forget the posibility of what could go wrong. Plus, I think of what could happen to entertain myself. I sorta take the bad thing happening and then I make a little story that goes with it. Like for instance, if I become a hoeboe or a baglady, Angelina Jolie may become friends with me and help me out.....Okay it's official. I'm wierd and I don't make sense......... I get the feeling that nothing I do matters. I feel like I never make an impression and that nothing I do will ever be different. I guess you can say I get my hopes too high for something, and it just doesn't turn out that way. I feel like I'm ignored by most people because I'm not like them, and my talents are nothing because they don't help me at all. I'm not that good at writing, but I am creative...I like to write and draw, and even though I feel as if nothing matters no matter what I do, I know that it's not true......I think... That's why I feel like a nobody. I've never been anybody to anyone except my family. I feel as if I'm boring to my friends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amorphous Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 [color=teal][size=1]I don't wake up every morning thinking that I might be a nobody in the future. I don't pass my days by thinking that I will not amount to anything. I don't get depressed because of something going wrong.(Of course stress might happen though.) No I wake up in the morning thinking of how my day will be like. Good? Bad? Just Okay? I pass my days thinking and doing things that will help me later on in life. Even if it doesn't really seem like it will -_- I don't get depressed if something goes wrong. That I guess isn't entirely true. But I don't get depressed over little things. The last time I was depressed was over something very major. Which in retrospect does not happen very often at all. And I do have some plans for the future as well. Of course that they are always changing slightly with each passing day. So no, I don't see myself as a nobody as long as I have fun in my life. I don't really care if I amount to anything truly amazing. I just want to live life. [/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Success comes before work only in the dictionary" Reason he tell me such things is because of his background and the things he has done in his life. Backstory, orginally he is from Iran and he was able to be adopted(dont know the details) from there. Fast forward that a bit, he never went to high school(dropped out in 7th grade) and now I and he would say he is pretty successful, owning a few Golds Gyms around here. Its not about what education you have; its about your work ethic. So yah he set his goals everydays on how he wants to live out that day, and he just tells me the same things. So hopefully I will be similar in the future with my career and life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatarofkaine Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 "I have plenty of talent and potential, I just dont give a ^$*%." It's not the so much being a nobody that worries me, its what the system does for nobodies, if you were really hopeles, then you could just sit around in the basement eating speghettios, or so you would like to think. But in reality you cant, to survive nowadays you have to have an income, etc you need to buy food pay taxes. The only way a basement living works is in an anarchist society, which in basest concepts is really not such a bad idea, although with all the social structure people seem to rely on, implementing it would be one BIG ask.
