Christmas is only around the corner...

Ok I'm starting to freak a little, Christmas is exactly a month tomorrow and I haven't even brought on present yet, I sort of know what I'm getting for my sister but no completely sure, but other than that I have no idea. Like what am I suppose to get my little brother, my mum? Like seriously and then there's when am I going to have time to go get the presents but mainly where is the money going to come from, I know that I work two shifts a week so I'm earning between 50-60 pounds but I don't have the time to work and other time, so it looks like I'm going to have to stay in, stop spending my money and save for a 2 more weeks so I have about 200 saved and then hit the shops and get my dad to take me.
People give me ideas for what I can buy for my sister she is 14 or my brother who is 4 or my mum. I need help guys!?!

PS. Here's a picture from my way back from work there was about 150 birds flying in a pack, it was beautiful.

Controlling Family..

Do you ever feel like your life is trying to be planned out for you?

Its come to my attention in my life at this moment for me trying to figure out what i want to do when i leave school, i have two more years, but have no idea what i want to be or do.

Do i go to University? Do i take a Gap Year, Go Travel and then go to University a year later? or do i go get a full time job and never really know what i want to do?

But lately i feel like my family are trying to pressure me into going into Uni and study courses i don't want to study, it feels like I'm being forced, and i don't want to do it. If i did go to University it would make me the first of my generation of kids in my family to be going as my cousins didn't get high enough grades or choose not to go. so there is a lot of pressure for me and i have absolutely NO IDEA what or who i want to be. 

Do i go down the creative route and do something with my photography what I'm good at and really enjoy? or do i go down the business route like my family want me to and get stuck in an office with a boring routine of working 9 to 5? 

I have no idea and do not think at the age of 16 think that anybody my age would be able to figure who they wont to be, i have wanted to be a lot of things but always grew out of them or discovered that i didn't have the skills or grades to be able to do it. 

So like i was saying I have two years to discover myself and see what i want and to grow up. You may think that 2 years is nothing but if you think of it 2012 has flown past and i will have to start looking at Universities and be choosing courses before i apply next winter. 

I'm growing up to fast and wish time would slow down so i can figure out who i am and who i want to be but life isn't like that, you have to catch up and keep working to you get your goals.
