Not your average college life
Hello everyone. Today I figured I'd discuss my odd college life, which probably differs from the vast majority of people's.
It's quite weird. I am now very reclusive. The only time I leave my dorm room these days is to go to class, eat, or to brush my teeth, etc. Most of the time I sit here doing basically nothing. I look forward to midnight because then it is nearing the time when I go to bed and can move on to the next day. I anticipate my next return home each day.
I hate college. I just want it to end so I can get on with my life. For that I have to wait basically 3 and a half years. I will study abroad in London, but even that's far away. I can't stand going to class, I'm not interested, I don't care. I just want to get a diploma. Therefore my first semester I did fine in class, maintaining all my scholarships and moving on. I plan to do the same this semester.
The "best time of your life" just does nothing for me. Tonight's Thursday night and I'm not out at the bar like everyone else. The bar is not fun. Nothing is fun here. When I come home and hang out with my friends it is fun. It seems like when I go to the bar, I just have to pay money to get a drink I don't want because its effect doesn't excite me. I have nothing to say to the people there and the people I go with always seem to drift away. There aren't even many people here I can consider friends. I have no interest in getting drunk anymore.
You might be thinking, why not transfer to URI? Well then I can't study abroad where I want and I can't do all the things I can do here that arae only available junior year and on. I just have to wait it out until I can actually do useful things here. I've also decided that I'll probably major in political science and maybe minor in sociology, but I'm not sure if that path will help me get a job much. Hopefully, I guess we'll see.
Through it all I continue to make music; I feel that it is the only thing I can do right now that shows immediate results. Soon my new roommate will move out and after that I hope to just stay in a single room and devote my time to songwriting and such.
This post may seem depressing, but I am not depressed. I am REALLY BORED at the moment, but not depressed, that only happens when Autumn rolls around. I get depressed when I somehow feel that I'm going nowhere. That's not how I feel now. I'm in school, getting credits. It just takes a really long time. It's like planting a seed and never taking your eyes off the plant as it grows. So if anyone could suggest how to make this feel less boring, please let me know.
It's also winter, which means like a bear, I am hibernating. There's really nothing to do this time of year. For that reason I'll be checking out FGCU. Imagine lifeguarding on the weekends and going to school during the week! That of course brings me to the fact that I am taking a lifeguard course in a few weeks. That's why I really look forward to this summer. It sounds like fun.
I think I'll have the best time when I feel like I'm doing something really productive. That's not until people take notice in my music, or I get a useful job. Being a lifeguard is useful, so that'll help hold me over until I can get my career going. K later.
