Don't know what to do with my life
I've been thinking about this recently..
I don't know what to do with myself.
I'm starting the second semester of my first year of college in a few days. I'm a good student, graduated highschool with a 3.0 and managed to get a 3.3 in my first semester of college.
I have four fantastic friends that i would do anything for and many acquaintences.
Lately though I have been thinking about what I want to do with myself after college. I am majoring in sociology, which is a pretty dead end major in terms of careers and such, and I don't really want to do anything in the sociology field anyway. In fact, the only reason I picked the major to begin with is it was the only major that appealed to me, and with the fact that my mother works at the college i attend = free tuition... I always knew i was going and never really had any opinion on it.
For the longest while I wanted to work in some branch of law enforcement..But with my increasing age and everchanging views on society, i've come to realize that I don't know if I can really handle the responcibility that officers of the law possess. Add onto the fact that I disagree with the drug laws (i like drugs, especially marijuana a lot) and the U.S. incarceration system is fucked up, I don't know if this is a career I still would want to follow.
I don't have a girlfriend. I don't know if i sincerely want one, or if it's just the image and social "norm" that I SHOULD have one baring down on me. I know, at least, i need to get laid, heh.
I don't have a job, but then again I don't really want one. I just kind of feel like a bum without one.
I don't really know the point of this thread, I guess it was sort of a rant or something? Don't worry though, i'm not about to run off and kill myselfI just don't want to end up like 90% of Americans....working a 8-10 hour deskjob 5 days a week for a sub-par salary and little to no free time.
I've always kind of wanted to be done with school and to move on with my life. Now i realize it's really been the only direction i've had in my life. I need to start thinking of other things i'm interested in; finding another profession. Preferably one that doesn't do random drug testing
Sometimes i wish i could just own a house and have a wife in some far off country. I wouldn't have any responcibilities and could just smoke pot and have sex all day. I know this isn't really viable, but hopefully it can be somewhat attainable without me wasting my entire life as a workaholic.hihigh Reviewed by hihigh on .
