So I Guess That's It?


SO NOW’S A BIG REFLECTION AND LOOK BACK ON WHAT I’VE LEARNED THIS YEAR

As far as college goes, I still don’t have any top picks or first choices in my mind, sad I know.  I have managed to come up with a list of schools that I will be applying to however… I think.  I still have to read up on some a little more, actually a lot more, but that’s all part of the process.  Off the top of my head, I like Washington, Oregon, UCSB, UCLA, Santa Clara, UC Berkeley, USD, Gonzaga, USC, and Wyoming.  Though this year may have taught me a lot about picking schools and opened my eyes a little, I’m still a little bit of a lost cause you might say. So I might as well do as I’ve been doing so far and just wing it.

As far as work goes and what professions I am considering, that also remains a bit unknown.  There’s just so much to do and so little time to do it, and I know I realistically I can’t do it all so eventually I’ll have to narrow it down to something, but I don’t want that to be soon.  I want to have a lot of money and I want to have a lot of fun making money, but that seems hard.  I would love to be a pediatrician, and an architect, and an actuary, and a sports analyst, and much more, but sadly I can’t do it all. All I do is hope that when the time comes, and it sure is coming quick, I decide to do something I love and can see myself doing for a long time, even if I don’t have a single clue what it is now.

And lastly as far as life goes, it just goes…on…and on…and on.  I feel like I’m just going through the motions with everything I do now and I feel that something big has to change. Even after all the memories and experiences from this whole year, both good and bad, I don’t know if I’ve learned anything new.  I’m still stuck at the same place I was when the year began, and I don’t even know if I like it or not.  Now that this school year is pretty much over, I can say that it still left me pretty clueless about everything and what I intend to do or how I intend to do it, whatever it even is.  I go through life day after day not really expecting anything huge to happen or change, but thinking that something, even if it’s a small thing, should be different than it was the day before.  But hey I guess that’s my road block right there.  Maybe I just get so caught up with the little things in life that I lose sight of the big picture…. I don’t know.  I don’t know a lot of things.  But what I do know is that I’m just gonna keep movin’ on, no matter where life takes me (around the world if I’m lucky).  See ya guys (:
