I thought a mid-life crisis happens when you turn 50 or so. Nope. I guess it can happen anytime you go through a big change in life and you don't know if you're playing your cards right. It's like 52 card pick-up. Everything is scattered around me and I don't know what to deal with first. I graduated and have been done college for a while now it seems. I've been enjoying my summer at the beach, cool evening runs, cooking meals with fresh picked ingredients, reuniting with friends, and enjoying family. But my see what the day brings attitude makes me feel pathetic. I realize I need structure in my life; a day planned with goals to be accomplished. So what now? How do I take charge of my life and make things happen? It could be simple, but I dread making the decisions on my own, which again is pathetic. I don't like the way I am passively living my life now. I am young and should be enjoying the freedom I've been granted. I need to be my own person and embrace this part of my life. I want to have fun!
Things I want to do this year.....
get a job (OT with temporary license, possibly?)
