I'm just as bad as you
Sometimes I do think that I'm better than some people. I really do. But in all honesty, some people don't make it too hard for you to WANT to be better than them.
After meeting with my advisor I realized precisely how old I am and how much more time I have left to pretend my life is stalling in college.. a year and a half. 3 semesters and I'm done. It was a relief to hear initially but those age old anxieties found their way into my head and I can't help but feel overwhelmed.
I have a life-plan. I think it's a good one, time lines and personal goals all included. While teaching and having a 'positive impact' on the lives of my students is important to me, I really only want to teach for 5 years max. I really want a family.. I want to be a stay at home mom who bakes, and cleans and all that stuff. I used to think I wanted to find a way to stay involved with CG, but I think that ship sailed.
Anyway, the big question remains, where is my life REALLY going? Who's going to be in it? What'll I do with it? Where will I be?
What fun would it be to know this early on?
