I mentally came up with a list of things I want to do before I have to start work at the end of December.
It is extremely surreal- knowing that next semester will be my last.
But I’m not fighting it, nor am I hiding from it. Coz I feel like I’m very ready to go out and work.
I mean this is totally besides the age thing, and that this is my second degree.
Some people never want to work. and some tell me that I’ll regret this wanting to work when I start coz studying’s a lot more fun.
But y’know, I don’t think I will.
I mean sure, I’ll miss the flexibility of waking up whenever I want, skipping classes when I feel like going to test drive cars with my mother, going to town for brunch and strolling around in the late morning sun, that sort of thing.
But starting work also means starting the another chapter of my life. The beginning of the rest of my life.
And it seems as real as adulthood can get.
I don’t think everything will be easy – no, I think being an adult is hard work.
But I’m ready for it.
Sometimes, you just know when you are.
And there’s no explanation good enough to support that deep sense of calm in knowing.
And y’know, I really can’t wait
Check back soon for the list of things to do before I work.
I think, this blog has found its purpose.
