Ugh, my belly hurts. Too much lentils and blueberries.
Anyway, life is pretty fun right now. Being done with college is awesome. I'm getting enough sleep. I have time to read for pleasure and cook meals from scratch. I work with a bunch of nice women. I can still sneak into the AU gym with Laura's ID. I like having Laura and Timmy around. Three people from NEPA in one house, hah. I'm paying off my federal loans already, and perhaps most importantly, I no longer feel so guilt-ridden about going out and having fun because there's no deadline I have to be concerned about making.
I thought that I would have some sort of crisis when I graduated college, much like I did after high school graduation. I invest so much in my school work that when I finish it, I expect to feel completely lost and purposeless. It's so different this time around though, which is not to say I have a profound sense of purpose, but just that the only thing I should be doing is sitting back and seeing what still motivates me when it's not in the context of "general university requirement." You can't hurry, genius.
