ill be off to egypt. im going to be an egyptologist. ive always felt that i was born in the wrong time. that i should have been born 500 years ago. i feel a deeper conection with the past than i do with the present. egypt fascinates me. it sparks dreams like nothing here can. after college, ill get an in-field job and watch the sun set behind the pyramids, and sun bathe on the left paw of the sphinx. ill be able to sit on the banks of the nile. and just watch as the world spins round. the past and the present spiralling and combining in such a way as to make room for the future. it all will come together there. that is where my heart truly lies. in egypt, not the us.
yes, this is what i plan to do with my life. noone will ever pursuade me differently. when im 26, i will leave behind everything that ive ever known, i will be gone, but i will not be forgotten.
