Don't steal my sunshine
Had a fun day today. Went to get sushi as a graduation celebration with my sister, blackbeltbarbie, and Wendy. We went to Yo! Sushi in Piccadilly. I was extremely unimpressed with it, but still managed to wolf down a fair amount of food. Ah well, my sister was paying for it for the first time ever. Normally I buy *her* stuff. Then me and my sister wandered around London for a bit, and drank overpriced coffee, and decided to go see Sunshine at the Prince Charles (cinema in Leicester Square which is cheap. It was beautiful. A psychological sci-fi thriller with sharp characterisation, dry wit, excellent theories, thought-provoking themes of human fallibility, atheism and God, and not even the hint of Hollywood cheesiness. Danny Boyle directed and Alex Garland wrote. Gotta love it when the British do the films for once.
I am firmly on the job hunt now, but what I really don't know is: What exactly do I want to do with the rest of my life? Because that's what I really have to know. Temping just won't cut it, and even teaching English in other countries would be no more than something to buy myself time in the long run, albeit an amazing experience. As I have said before, I want to save the world, but unless I get to become Supergirl overnight, it's not something that's an obvious career path. I can't be content to just do my thing and live and let live and make money. Neither do I want to be ordinary. I want to be the best, I want to be extraordinary. I want to not just try and put my finger in the dam, I want to fix it, for good, as much as I can. I worry so much that anything I do is futile in the long run and that kills me. I think I want to work for a charitable organisation or NGO. I'm looking at being a charity fundraiser... me being in charge of getting other people to give money doesn't seem like a bad idea lol... I think... I guess I need to do some more research.
