Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I really feel like I need some sort of direction to go, one besides the directions given by the Good Book, and more like actual instructions, I often wonder what exactly I’ve been put here on Earth to do. Maybe the answer is nothing, maybe it’s something spectacular and grandiose, or perhaps I am destined to just be a mundane soul working to find the means to no particular end. Any of the aforementioned roads are fine by me, honestly I’d like to think I would travel up the grandiose path…I’ll just have to wait and see.
Everyone has been asking me lately, “Hey man, what college are you going to?” or “What are your plans after high school?” My answer has always been the same, “I have no idea, and I haven’t even applied.” I always feel a little bit depressed when I say that to people and I don’t know why, I could go through all of the hoops and actually apply to someplace, I just have no idea what I want to be when I “grow up.” This is an intense situation, and I can’t help thinking that the choice I make in the next year or so will have the greatest impact on my life, more so than any other. What a bunch of crap to put that on an 18 year old. Oh well. Sorry about the ramble, but I felt like writing a bit.
