So I'm still thinking about how I was forced to wipe Carleton University off my resume in order to find some random job. Then it hit me, how would I be different if I never went there?
Less confident-maybe, but sometimes I feel like school made me feel small, almost self depricating
More simple minded- I have learned alot more, but that knowledge is pointless when trying to make some money
An individual- I've lost it. All that spark I had at westmount is gone. I guess that's because that school was like a box filled with boring people (mostly) and by doing one small thing out of the ordinary I became unique. Going to Ottawa, to a school filled with variety, I lost that edge.
Okay, so I'm not asking for someone to say 'You still are the person you once were' or 'I still love you.' I am so proud to have gone to school, I love saying what my majors are, I love feeling like I've accomplished something. Then coming home and imagining I never left thornhill, all of my pride just evaporated. I let university become my personality. I ate, drank and dreamed school. Well this is it, it's time to become my own person again.
p.s. what a silly post
