At first the choices are small. Which ice cream should we get for dessert? Should I wear my pink or my blue headband for school pictures? Who would make the best prom date? But eventually these decisions become life changing. Where should I go to college? What should my major be? Should I study abroad? What will I do after I graduate? I don't know about everyone else out there, but these questions make me feel like this:
And of course now I'm ashamed for using such an overused meme. On the other hand I'm so stressed out from making other life decisions that I can't waste time to find a more original description. Well, I guess there is always this interpretation:
When did it stop being so simple? My entire life I knew what I wanted. Chocolate ice cream, no headband because they hurt my head, and of course the best prom date was my best friend. Even the college and the major were simple, studying abroad was a no-brainer. But who am I now? I have this degree in one hand and a stack of bills in the other; doesn't leave a person with too many options. So what's next?
Well there's trying I guess. I'll try to find a job. I'll try to find a grad school that I can afford and find interest in, but until then? Who knows. It'd be ideal to have time and find out who I am, but I can't exactly take my father's place in the army and defeat the Huns....loans don't defer for that. This is the moment I wish dispel some hopeful wisdom about the next step, however, I am still on the journey myself. If you, dear reader, have any ideas or words of wisdom or inspirational quotes post them in the comment section! Until then dear one,
