The life of teenagers and young adults are usually riddled with the same problems, what course to pursue, which career to pursue, which college/university offers better education and opportunities, and which job is most suited for them and pays well. There are many goals, procedures, and plans, some of which- for the lucky ones- strikes the Uncle Tom daily double.
