Laura and Claire try explain the rules of life to me (via toomanyjumpers)

Yesterday, Kit, Claire and I sat in wetherspoons for most of the afternoon, spending the last of our money on value meals and making one beer last as long as possible…discussing being grown-ups, a subject talked about quite a lot recently as we are steadily approaching the end of our third year at university, with not one of us knowing what we want to do after. Our life plans end here.

Kit has so far decided that she would like to be a proper lady, with lipstick and heels, but also the air of a gypsy, moving around a lot, with children she can read Enid Blyton to, and who always wear fancy dress clothes. But we soon established you cant be a neat, proper lady and a gypsy, as Gypsy caravans dont have showers, and childen need stability.

Our other job ideas included being florists with pretty aprons, ‘School Gate’ Mums, or childrens authors, none of these necessarily making the best use of our £20,000 degrees…

But, oh well, I wont even get to be a grown-up if I continue to sit in the library all day on Tumblr, eating chocolate buttons and in the same clothes I wore to a party last night…

I like to think our confusion just makes us all the more charming, don’t forget to add ‘head of dinosaurs at the natural history museum’ and ‘something in publishing a bit like Bridget Jones’ to the list of future potential jobs. I’m fine with learning about Modernist critical theory and the Romantics for 3 years to do these things. I’m not being a gypsy though.
