Guys, what should I do with my life? Really. I want so badly to just make a decision and take some classes and get another degree or do SOMETHING to advance my situation from where I'm at right now, but I just do not know. I have no idea. I don't understand how it is that my friends have found things that they're passionate about, that they really like; teaching, PT, journalism, PR, etc. How is it that I am 24 years old and completely without a clue? I feel like there was some vitally important class or ceremonial reading of the Magic 8 Ball that I missed. Is that what happened in the first 5-10 minutes that I always missed in high school because I was late?
In other related seasonal depression news, WHO ELSE IS READY FOR WINTER TO BE OVER? Seriously, I get it, wintertime is cold and snowy, isn't mother nature wonderful, blah blah blah. Now it's too much. It's too cold and too snowy and icy and dangerous and gross and not pretty.
Winter has several stages for me:
1. OMG YAY FIRST SNOW! IT'S SO PRETTY AND LIGHT AND SPARKLY AND WONDERFUL!
2. Oh my God guys, do you know what this means?! It's almost Christmas, y'all! Let's put up decorations and drink cocoa!
3. HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT IT'S CHRISTMAS. This snow could not be more perfect and festive right now! I feel like I'm in a Thomas Kinkade painting.
4. I thought the snow was perfect for Christmas, but here it is reflecting everything wonderful and sequin-y and bubbly that I love about new years!
5. Oh, the snow is still here? But.....Christmas is over? I put the decorations away! Why is Mother Nature not putting hers away? You know what? I can't fault you for that, Moms. If it were socially acceptable, I would leave my decorations up and on year-round, and everyday would be Christmas! Respect.
6. Sigh. Still snowy. Still cold. But I think we're through the worst of it now. It hasn't been too bad this week. I can tough it out for the rest of the season.
7. OH MY GOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! This is fucking ridiculous. Why do people choose to live here? Everything about winter is awful. I am moving to Florida.
8. This is not even funny. There's still like 3 months left of this shit! I'm going to kill someone.
9. I was able to drive to work just wearing a sweater! No coat! AND the snowbanks are getting smaller! Woooot! I like where this is heading...
I am currently moving between stage 7 and stage 8. Stage 8 is sooooo long. Because winter is soooooo long. I'm already thinking about my warm-weather clothes, which are SO much cuter than my winter clothes. Plus I've pretty much reached the point where I don't care anymore and I'm just wearing the same thing day after day. Blah.
Winter makes me sleepy. It's 10pm. ZzzzzZzzzzzzZZZzzzzzz.
OH P.S. - Another photo to come of my new STILL BLONDE hair, to dispel the vicious rumors that I've crossed over to the dark side. Nevaaaaah!
I don't think I can offer any help at all in the career department. My job makes me want to drink all day and I am waffling between two super-difficult career paths.
ReplyDeleteWork=drinking
Career decisions=napping. all day.
Some blogs need interns, how do you become an intern for a blog? Is that a you-must-be-physically-at-a-place kind of thing? Or do you operate out of your home doing internet research and making phone calls and stuff?
In my head you write a blog and go professional and eventually rent out studio space so that you have a place to go and blog everyday with an assistant and an intern or something.
And then I become a SUPER AWESOME BLOG by Colleen sponsor and you give away free or discounted photo shoots from Meeeeeeeee. This boots traffic and readership on BOTH of our blogs and we both make moolah. Happily ever after, the end.
*boosts, not boots. I do not want to boot our potential followers anywhere.
ReplyDeleteIt is my professional opinion that you should move in with me, where there is slightly less snow, slightly warmer temperatures, and, well, me! Love, Raf
