We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public - Bryan White

So, before we broke up for summer, our school was already prepping us for leaving school. They're talking about university, money management and finding work. To be honest, I don't care. Okay that isn't entirely true - sure, I want a good job when I'm older, who doesn't? But I'm 14. Why should 14 (and some 13 year old's in my class) have all this worry about growing up thrown at them? We already have to do GCSE's a year earlier than former students. Even some of my friends in other parts of the UK don't start until next year. Surely they could talk about all this silly responsibility and stuff about the future when we're older? We have to stay in full-time education until we are 18, so it's not like we don't have enough time.

Seriously though, I'm not sure what I wanna do when I'm older. I've always wanted to be a paleontologist, but you have to be so darn smart. I'm not all that good in Science. I mean I'm okay in Chemistry but that's about it. Ah well, I'll find something, huh. so what about you guys? Do you think it's time to start worrying about the future, or adults should let children enjoy they're last few years of youth without worry about work?
So, this is SciAwkward signing off.
