People keep telling me your 20s are the time to discover yourself. You're supposed to make mistakes and try things and figure out what you want to do, who you want to be, where you want to live, what you're looking for in a mate. Well then, I guess I'm exercising my rights to the fullest.
I've always had high expectations for myself, for my life. I had a set plan of where I should be by 25, 30, 35. I guess that was my first mistake, making plans. Cuz nothing is where it is supposed to be.
Graduating high school, I was sure I knew what I wanted to do with my life and what career path was going to make me the happiest and most successful. How could I be so naive? Here I am with this degree in Graphic Design and now I'm not even sure if this is my passion! I'm feeling very lost at the moment.
And it's more than my profession. I'm living by the beach, a dream for most people, but all I can think about is how I don't know anybody and I don't know how to meet anybody. I miss the comfort of being in an area I'm familiar with and around people I'm used to seeing. I live down here during the week, but I would definitely not call it home. It's amazing how the second I drive into the San Gabriel Valley, I immediately feel more at ease. So I guess I've determined one thing; it'd definitely time to move back to what I know.
