I am tired of being at Central. Its cool, hanging out with people, and pushing back deadlines that professors set, and drinking too much, and working at Merrill, and being in the fraternity, and meeting new people; but, I think I just want to move on in life now. I haven't even been here as long a people like Larry, but I want to start working or something. The sad thing is, what the hell happens after this? Do you just get tired of doing your job and look forward to retirement? Then do you just get tired of hanging around and look forward to dying? What is it that makes us want to move on to some place else all the time? Why can't we just be content with the conditions we are living in right now (unless their completely miserable of course)? Life in college is not that bad. In fact, it probably is the ideal place that many people envision for themselves. Think about it. There is no worry about mortgages, or marital problems, or credit scores, or property lines, or what you are going to do this weekend. Some people don't want to be here, because they have to borrow money to stay, but I have only borrowed eight thousand dollars so far. In a couple of years, I could probably work it out so that I don't have to borrow money at all to go to school. So why do I want to leave? Where am I going to go?
