So O-Week is in 2 weeks, meaning class starts in 3. It occured to me today that I am not goinbg to school for the same reasons now as when I started. I first thought of college as a delaying tactic, a way to postpone dealing with the real world. That no longer holds true. I'm pretty much in the real world now, which is to say that I'm entirely dependent on my own income. Consequently, I'm pretty excited at the prospect of that income increasing when I get a real job. Part-time work is becoming more and more frustrating, and I can't wait to look for a full-time position. I daydream now about having my own place, with real furniture ands maybe a dog.
Basically, I'm tired of being a student. Well, that's not entirely accurate. I love class, more now than I did before; what I'm tired of is the student lifestyle. I really want to be a fully-functiobnal adult. Hell, I've already got the credit card debt for it...
