ramblings from the passenger's seat

It's interesting how abruptly we can metamorphose. In very concrete terms I've gone from a student to an unemployed person. If I were to move out I would be eligible for welfare. One day I will go from being unable to drink, vote or purchase pornography to being able to. It's seems like despite all the bureaucratic grey tape official change happens quite quickly. Yet does this official status change have any effect on us as people? I mean when push comes to shove what does it matter whether I'm a student or unemployed in the eyes of the government? How does that effect me? It doesn't appear to have made any fundamental changes, but then again everything is transient, the world is constantly in flux, and you can't really ever change anything that's already changing.... Hoody Hoo for amateur philosophy. This post was brought to you by the letter Y and the number 42.
