which rung are you on?

When are you getting promoted? When are you getting married? When are you going to have babies?

When are people going to realize you can make your own path in life and you don't have to follow theirs? When are people going to realize there are more important and interesting things to talk about?

""What are you doing after graduation?"

"I'm so sick of that question." John said. "No one really cares what I'm doing after graduation. It's conversational masturbation. We spent the first two years asking each other what our major was and the last two years asking what we're doing after graduation. Why don't we ever talk about what we're really interested in?" Everyone sat in silence for a moment."
