Getting in before the rush.

I saw this in lisew and girlyskin's LJs this morning and decided to post it tonight when I got home, only to find it's catching on. So, before everyone is swamped:

Ask me a question. A question about myself, my life, personal, su p erficial, inappropriate, whatever and I will answer it the best I can.

Some answers I may friends lock if they affect others, but otherwise, fire away!i

I am uncreative Lass! Watch me ask everyone the same question!

Ten years ago, where did you think you would be at the age you are now, and how is your life different from what you predicted a decade ago?

Yikes, ask me something hard why don't you?

*grins* Trying not to be too depressed here... Ten years ago, I was newly twenty-one, and I had it all planned. I was going to become a psychologist, travel overseas on my fabulous earnings, marry BRM and build our own house somewhere in the country. The house would be designed and possibly built by BRM, and once it was done, we'd have kids - he was going to look after them whilst I went back to work.

Of course, things didn't quite work out that way. I didn't get the marks to get into the Honours classes I needed to become a psychologist and went into Criminology instead. I eventually got a job after graduating with the coutrs, and have been doing it ever since. I've been overseas a few times, including my summer camp experiences straight after graduation. I'm single again, and about at the same stage as I was after I finished university - no house, no car, no partner, no kids. But I'm actually not depressed about that, however that last sentence sounds. Because I have freedom now, to do what I want, instead of what people expect.
