How to not feel completely worthless
For someone who hasn't got a full-time job or any particulary time-consuming hobbies (apart from WoW), I've felt surprisingly busy lately. And that's a good thing.
I have found that I need plans and dreams to motivate myself to do something, but I also need encouragement on my way there. Little things that make me feel like I'm actually getting somewhere, things that inspire me to try even harder.
For now, as money sadly rules most of our lives (and even more so when we don't have any), my main focus has been finding a job. Finally got a couple of interviews and replies and I am absolutely confident that by the end of this month, I will have a pretty clear idea of what the summer will look like, job wise.
Sometimes, I think that I spend more time planning than making things actually happen but this time, I have really tried and it's very rewarding to finally see something happen.
Finally got my Biology degree sorted too. It's printed on very nice paper and kept in a very nice folder. I am really happy to have proof of three years worth of uni studies. One step closer to my future!
Talking to a friend yesterday made me wonder if I have picked a goal and a dream job that I can't achieve. But just looking at that piece of paper motivates me not to give up. At least not yet. :P
Have been at my parents' for a couple of days and it's reminded me how important family is. Their house may not be very big and they don't have a lot of money but they are my family and they love me, no matter what. And I love them.
Knowing that other people might not be so lucky or aren't as close to their family makes me upset and I wish I could share my parents with everyone!
As cliché as it may be, I think it's important to remember that I am, in fact, the most important person in my own life because without me, it wouldn't be my life.
Things seem to have started taking a turn for the better. There is lots of love and a glimmer of hope.
I am not completely worthless after all.
