You'd hope that the people that loved you and birthed you would accept you but the reality is, is that they don't. My mother thinks I am living in la la land by looking for internships in non-profit organizations. It like what I want to do is unrealistic. Why is it so bad that I want to do good in this world and leave an Eleanor like legacy behind. Why must I get a secretary based job, marry, and have a family by 27. How is that more realistic then what I want to do. I find once you get older you get happier. Right now I am not happy. Its like nothing I want to do is realistic. WELL my mother shouldn't say anything cause she's old and she won't be around forever so whatever. Le sigh.....
Life after college is more romanticized then it should be
