Looking back...
I've been thinking over the last few months about my interests and goals, and it makes me think about the society we live in and the expectations of its youth... had I not felt it so important to go to school right away after high school, rush through it and graduate, maybe I would have chosen a different major, different school and a different path.
I'm a much different person than I was 10 years ago when I moved to Seattle as a wide-eyed 17 year old college student. My aspirations, goals and dreams are much different now. After a few years of post college life experience, what I want seems much clearer now, and the expectations I have about life feel more solid...
Oh well, I'm a proactive, motivated guy. I've made huge risks to get to where I am now and have been successful, and in the next couple years, I see myself making another leap in a new direction, and hopefully I will again land on my feet. I'll find some way of making things happen the way I want them to, but it probably be easier had I chosen a different academic and career path, didn't have the student loans I have and a car payment I'm locked into for the next few years....
