Exploring Life, Inspiration & Design
It’s official. I’m leaving uni in search of bigger things, plentiful riches and to travel the world. I’ve never been more sure about anything in my entire life.
Is it a risk? Hell yeah. Is it gunna be fun, having nothing but a dream and the drive to do whatever it takes? HELL YEAH!
Safe and well, just. I managed to get left behind by the coach in the middle of nowhere at a motorway service station, but apart from that I’m just dandy. I never knew coming home from uni could be such an adventure.
The term has ended, and Christmas is upon me. I finally got to unpack my Xbox 360 that I won in a competition a month ago. Luck has been upon me it seems ever since I left school 2 years ago.
Lately I’ve been in the mood for making myself a rich man, using the web design skills that have taken me 7 or so years of learning in my own time to acquire. I wonder if I really need to continue learning at uni, whether I should just jack it all in and concentrate on making it happen.
The stories of some of the richest men in recent history have inspired me, for better or worse…
Other dropouts of note include, but are not limited to:
I’ve got to wonder, am I doing the right thing?
Having the phone right outside my door I’m the one who gets to it first in in my house. Before uni I had no idea how many weirdoes and cold callers phone up day after day. Especially Indians putting on a bad english accent calling to tell me ‘My name is Bill and I’m calling from London (Yeah sure you are) to say you have been selected for a very special prize’. It gets kinda boring to tell them to bugger off every time in the nicest possible way, so I like to have a little fun with them at their expense.
Then I come across a recording of a guy who has taken it to the next level. Just listen to this.
