Then, Now and Later?

It turned out that I was one of the priveleged and lucky to go to the Cambridge meeting yesterday. So, Marius, Shuai and I sat on our own green couch during the meeting - the 1337 trio reunited as always. Haha. Ever since the 1337 project week last December, its always been great to see and be with them :)

We learnt a lot there actually, it was very informative. They were quite literal when they said something like this: "Being the few selected and coming from this school, you are one of the best in the world. However,you have to be EXCEPTIONAL. Straight MVGs are not good enough". Our response: Great...

During that meeting, I also learnt that I was not unique in my life-long dream. Apparently, Marius wants the EXACT same thing as me. I was shocked. A medical degree with a PhD in biochemistry. I thought I was special but not anymore! Well, what did they tell us about our aims in life then? Apparently, we REALLY need to start getting work experience... and so, I asked Fr. Kristoff later on that day about volunteering in Josephina Hemmet. However, he responded with an even better offer, maybe Marius and I might be volunteering in Stockholms Sjukhem... :) Shuai on the other hand, being the extreme math genius he is, was nonchalant with his subject of choice - physics.

What else did I get to know about the future? Well, I have decided, my real goal is to come into a university in the UK. That then means that it's not a long time left until I have to apply for universities etc. Apparently, I have to apply for all the UK tests next month and apply to my universities of choice latest this October. Does it sound like a long time? Definitely not even close to enough for me!

What does that then tell me about now? It's not that obvious, it's just that I have to study and spend less days like yesterday. Yesterday, after school, I then went to daily mass as usual, and then Teddy, Criss, Ate and I continued to the Fredagsträffen. There we didn't do anything but chill around, talk, guitar etc. It was nice to be honest. After the Fredagsträffen, Teddy and Criss slept over to our house, but I was so tired that I went to bed and woke up recently seeing them all gone. Sad. I even forgot to help Criss in Biology. :(

It seems like I've been writing quite a lot about the future recently. To be honest, it's because I'm quite scared of it. What if I don't even get anything I write about here? What if, I get the absolute opposite? Only time can tell, and so far, I believe that I still have the chance to make everything happen!
