“In the professional or
career world, a gap year is when you stop your formal work
life to pursue other interests” (taken from Wikipedia)
I find this whole concept so crazy actually. You take a year
off to “live” your life the way you want. But you come back after that year of
life how you truly want it just to conform to a way of life you actually don’t
want but agree to. Just to keep society (your friends and family) happy. So you
forget about your happiness and mental well-being all because you want to please
everyone, because we’re all too afraid to try something out of the ordinary due
to our unnecessary fear of being JUDGED.
Anyway I sort of feel like we have to take a gap year
together and whether or not we decide to continue living our lives abroad or to
come back to join the plan society has for us. At least we will always be able
to say that we tried a different way of living.
Some ideas on things we could do:
- Teach English. Someone actually told me about
this today all you need to do is a course that isn’t much longer than 2 weeks.
- Wing
it. Maybe start a youtube channel to document our travels and experiences.
- Become nannies
- Follow Bakermat around until he loves us the way we love him, haha
