Micheal

Micheal wanted to spend his life surfing
didn't really see the point of education
"what's the point I want to be a surfer
when I get older don't need an education"

How do you buy a surf board 
how do you take care of a girlfriend
what happens if you have a child
surely you want money in life

Learning how to work with your hands 
in metal work and wood work 
could lead to a career 
where you build surf boards 

go surfing and earn the money
from selling surf boards 
to pay for your life style
link your dream with a plan
perhaps tomorrow will see you succeed
