As life is seemingly speeding by faster than the speed of sound now, I've been trying to figure out what really makes me happy in life and what I really want to do/get out of life. We all want to do the get rich quick thing, and that doesn't even mean money wise... just means you want to get wherever you want to be ASAP. For some reason I've got this stupid idea in my head that I've got to have it all figured out... like... NOW. which is FALSE. but at the same time, it's frustrating being a college graduate - having a full time job that isn't awful, but it's not something I LOVEEE and see myself doing forever - and just wanting to figure out what I love so I don't feel like I'm wasting so much time. It's a catch-22!
Maybe you all can help me figure out what to do in life - since there are obviously so many of you...
I know i like people & being social - since i seemingly want to catch up and find out what's going on in everyone's lives before settling into doing real work.
I love to write - but unfortunately I've been slacking on this thing - sorry - and my job only permites me to write travel instructions and flight emails to 18-25yr olds.
i like to plan things - but have to get better organized - i'm not totally awful, but there is lots of room for improvement.
i love pop culture & film - holler.
i want to travel - i've been bitten again, per usual.
i like being artistic - photography, general graphic design, pottery, using color in everything in life.
OK GO, make me a career!
i can't figure out if i'd like/ be good at teaching... that is another option?!
And then watching the documentary "young @ heart" ( ummm see it if you havent!!) i was just sitting there in awe of these awesome senior citizens. they know what they like. what keeps um happy. but i suppose that may have taken until retirement to realize what they really loved doing! but these people just had an awesome outlook on life, and i tend to have an opptimistic view on life, but sometimes i get very pessimistic and i get worried about my future.
For example, do i want to travel for a while? go to grad school? go to grad school abroad and travel at the same time?! what would i study in grad school (hence why i've got to figure something out soon). do i want to move out and screw saving money and waste it all on rent but really be out on my own!? AHHHHHH decisions!!!!!!!! HATE THEM.
but i must go to bed... so much to think about it seems. i know (well, hope) i can start heading in the right direction soon.
