I can't stand to read old journal entries, most especially ones I wrote when I was 17-20. I hope I'm not that wild or angry anymore. I'd like to think I'm much more mellow now, and a wee bit wiser. Lots of things have changed since I was 19.
I applied to the University of Texas-Austin last week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I get accepted for this Fall. I need some sense of direction. If I don't get in I think I might throw all of my stuff in my mom's garage and travel the world! Well, that's what the superhero in me wants to do anyway. These rose colored glasses sure do make things pretty, but I can't seem to stop tripping over my own feet.
In just a few short months I will have successfully worked at Whole Foods Market for two consecutive years. This is a huge milestone in my life, haha, being that it is the longest time I've ever worked at the same place. I can't really see myself working anywhere else in Austin, TX, but I will admit I daydream constantly about working less, spending less, saving more, and making my health a priority, all whilst finishing school. Then I remember how well I do with idle time and it all falls to pieces.
So much changed, but then again so many things are the same.
I'm afraid some things will never change.
