The Winner

~As I venture through this journey of life, random realizations are made. The experience of this past year at college has recently developed one thought in my mind. I would be perfectly contented continuing my college education without end. I've discovered the strange fact that I enjoy learning. My mind thrives on information, be it for class or random uselessness. I become interested in the most random things, search for information and details, and fill my noggin with my newfound material. Yesterday I was asked what my passion was, what moves me. My passion is my hunt for knowledge.
~I realize that, as with many of life's challenges, money is an issue. I cannot realistically expect this dream to materialize. I am financially incapable. However, if I were to miraculously win the lottery with the tickets I have never purchased, this is what I would enjoy doing with my winnings. I'd attend university after university, just learning. I'd occasionally work for the extra experience, and the joy of accomplishing something. I wouldn't spend my millions and billions on fancy boats and sports cars. My clothes would remain relatively unfashionably inexpensive.
~After I have finished my quest, (which will inevitably occur do to age, arthritis, vision impairment, and a search for something more... an actual life perhaps) I can utilize my plethora of knowledge to better society. A solution to all world problems is out there somewhere, I will have found it. I will also be a master at trivia games. Radio and television shows beware. I can donate this extra income to charity and others wanting to follow my education adventure. Oh what fun it will be!
~Oops. The nerd is oozing out of me again. How shameful. Better go fix that before someone sees.
