Rant Alert!
Mar. 31st, 2006 05:14 pmI haven't had much time to update this LJ, because nothing really extraordinary is happening in my life at the moment. (shrugs) The usual. A bit of drawing, a bit of music, quite a bit of spending time with my gf, and a whole lotta army.
On March 14th (a bit more than two weeks ago), It's been two years since the day I was drafted into the IDF - something that signifies the beginning of my last year as the Air Force technician I am.
Sure, a year is quite a lot of time for an outside onlooker. But when you're inside it, it tends to pass much faster. Which means that soon enough, the bubble I know as the army is going to pop, an I'm going to have to start thinking about what I want to do with my life from that point on.
So far, my plans are basically the simple plans that just about everyone has around here - Fly off, travel some places in the world (currently, Canada's high in my list. ^^;), then go back here, study something (I suppose I'll be going in the general direction of Biotechnology), get a job, and live a life of unassuming mediocrity for the rest of my existence. (shrugs) Sounds terribly dull, I know, but I suppose that's reality for ya.
Of course, even the simple is complicated, as my GF's going to get drafted eventually (eventually-soon, actually... probably before I'll be released), and who knows how is that going to affect our lives.
Now, as those of you who know me know, I'm not the type that usually thinks about the future ages in advance and tries to plan it out, and I'm quite an indecisive lifeform even when I do. And I have a terrible fear of bureaucracy wherever it may or may not be. ^^; And tragically it's everywhere. I'm a little mentally whacked at that point. Unfortunately, as soon as I get released from the army, I'm going to have to face a hell of a lot more of it. And I'm not sure how am I going to handle the 'real world'. ^^;
Meh... Sorry for rambling. I'll go do something more productive now.
