Expectations, Expectations, Expectations...

Throughout our whole adolescent life people are always expecting an extortionate amount off of us at all times. It all starts at a young age, we are expected to do well in school, make sure we do all of our homework, get the best grades we can get and of course be punctual once we get a bit of independence, I don't have a problem with that at all. Then as school gets more intense so does the expectation, we all of a sudden HAVE to know exactly what we want to do for the rest of our young lives, exactly what University course we want to do and what University we want to go to. This is not me whining to you about how difficult my life is, and how I am always unhappy, this is not the case however I do think once in a while all of us should just look at ourselves and choose what we want for ourselves instead of letting other people set out our lives.
