The following blog post contains the ramblings of a confused 21 year old.
Now it's 2012 and I have to graduate college and become an adult. Yes, I still don't consider myself an adult. This seems to weird people out all the time, but I don't care. I will define myself how I see fit. I am a child who is really good at pretending to be an adult.
Today is the last day of winter break and I have just realized that I now only have one real vacation left before I start work. This is the last time I will be able to spend an extended period of time with my mother. For some reason that thought had yet to occur to me. I just always assumed after college I would get a job somewhat close to home, but not so close that I could live at home. Not accurate. I will be moving 3,056.4 miles away. This is terrifying to me. Whenever I tell people I'm moving to Seattle they usually also like to point out how terrifying of a move it is or inform me that "Oh wow, That's on the other side of the country." Really? I had no idea. I thought Seattle was right outside of Boston. Thank you for the clarification.
And another thing, if one more person informs me that it rains in Seattle, I will punch them in the throat. I won't even feel bad.
Oh and then there all the people with their incessant questioning on why I would ever choose to leave the wonderful Massachusetts. I've lived in Mass for 21 years, I think another state deserves a try for at least 1-3 years. I know one day I'll be back, but I'd rather not pick right now.
The great thing about rambling is that it does make me feel better. I've been rambling about all this crap in my head for months, but actually writing it down makes it seem not so scary.
