People are always looking for the perfect getaway, the grand escape, or just something to distract from the main drag that life brings on the daily basis.
One of my student co-workers judged me because I didn't know what I wanted to do for a career in college. She basically thought I was stupid for attending college if I didn't have a blueprint of what I was getting out of the experience job wise.
What I say to that? Enjoy yourself.
Don't always been tense and always looking over your shoulder as if your about to be taken out of the picture. At times you just need to go with the flow of whatever the day brings you and put a smile on your face.
For me this is easier than stated since I'm a college kid. I don't know what I want to do in college and the advisors and tips from others have not really helped me out at all. My GPA isn't a standout since I'm not great when it comes to bookwork and exams but I've increased it bit by bit. My social life isn't similar to the one usually seen on primetime on MTV but I have one at least.
Now 90% of the world's population would freak out in my situation since everyone wants to go the straight and narrow. You want to go college, grab your papers, and grow up. Me...not so much. I like taking my days one at a time because that we as people are in a rush to grow up too fast instead of enjoying the thrills and spills life gives us at our current age.
It's not that hard to do. I love coming to my radio station and just hanging out while getting work done and talking on air about the latest information regarding videogames. Which is called 32BiT...details on the Twitter link. Hi-Yo! Self Advertising!!! lol
Yes, I might not have the life that I wanted but I'm enjoying it currently with what I have offered to me. A chance to explore college life and to find a career, working at a college radio station, working at Level 1 Trauma Hospital, and hanging out with a variety of people that I never thought I would socialize with.
I enjoy random moments in life as a young adult who just celebrated another year of life recently; That was a blessing in itself. Instead of going on the strict path that people wanted me to go, I decided to do a U-turn. Yeah...I may regret it sometimes since I might have graduated by now but I'm enjoying my situation that I'm in right now. The future is bright so why rush into something that will consume my efforts for the rest of my work career? Just doesn't make sense.
Don't rush your life. You will definitely miss some gifts on the way. Just kick back and enjoy the ride. You have plenty of miles til you reach your destination.
