This blog is becoming just what i thought it would be. Post a few times, then rarely after that. So i will contribute something to it right now to keep it alive.
So lets talk about LIFE
Really nice picture btw. Open the full thing to see it.
So who has had that feeling of not knowing what the rest of your life will be like? Lately this kind of stuff has been on my mind. College flew by, i guess after having awful grades in high school motivated me to try extremely hard in college, and its paid off. Now i am way ahead of the game, and i can take whatever class i want, for example, i will take golf in the fall semester lol. Only a year to go before i am done.
My game plan, being a psychology major, i have some strange drive to work as a prison psychologist, every time i tell people thats what i want to be, i get some strange looks and the same questions: "Aren't you scared?", "WHY?!", etc. Its always been interesting to me. And what makes me happy is helping people, especially helping people change their ways for the better, maybe even saving a life that way. Well after i finish college, i will take a year off (or a semester, we'll see) and either try to get a 35-40 hour job and save up money, or try to get a paid internship at some prison to get a start. After that, i know for sure i will go to get my masters. The problem is where and how. My family is from another country, so the school system is different there, i am the first person in my family to go to college here and graduate, so they have no clue how to help with this. Plus, i dont know what school i want to go to. After that, i hope to begin working at the prison. Maybe after two or three years of that, i will try to go back to school one more time to get my PhD, and advance more in the job to something more like working as a court psychologist.
But of course, thats just a goal. Honestly i dont know how achievable it is, seems realistic, but that doesn't mean too much. But what comes along with all of this stuff? Where will i live, will i still have the same friends, will i still have the same hobbies, what about my family, what about starting a family. I am just under 2 months away from being 21, and i feel like nothing has been done in all of these years.
Seems like life was so much easier as a kid LOL. Wake up, go to school, be bad and mess around all day long, come home and play with friends, go to sleep and start over again the next day.

Nice post, man. I definitely agree with the last part of this. Life seemed so much more simple as a youngin. However time only advances, so you have to get with the times. LOL IDK WTF IM SAYIN, BUT YOU MIGHT GET ME...
ReplyDeleteIt's koo to see you have a game plan unlike me walking around aimlessly. If only life was a simple as that picture you have there, which like you said is really nice...just looking at it put me in deep thought for a min.
