Things that have changed since I last posted:

-Finished my B.A. in English

-New job at New York, New York (the hotel)

-Studying for the GRE

Although these things are quite exciting, I still feel that I really haven’t accomplished a whole lot. I think that this yearning to become successful and to have a career that I will love doing is the cause of this sort of desire for more. However, the problem is that I don’t know what field I want to get into for graduate school. Moreover, I just have no idea what I want to do with my life.  It’s really frustrating to just think of what I want to be. Perhaps I should volunteer in different fields to get the feel of certain occupations? I want to take a year off and do just that; dabble in different industries. The downside to doing so is that I feel as if I will be wasting my time.  There are deadlines for grad school applications. 

You know how people say, “The more you stay away from school, the more likely you won’t return”? Well, I don’t want that to happen. It probably won’t.

People tell me to do what I love. I guess I really have to think about what I love or find something I love doing. 

Cheers to exploration!
