So, I haven't really done anything this week. I did finally do the dishes and get the laundry put away today. Oh, and I showered. That's an achievement.
I'm finding myself more and more uncertain about my future, both in the long term and in the very very short term.
I'm also finding myself wishing I was in Japan, so desperately that it hurts sometimes. Which is ridiculous. I think I must love it too much. I've idealized it. If I ever do get back over there, you watch--I'll hate it, or something, because I've convinced myself it's the only way I can be happy.
I wonder if I can get a job at a photo lab or with a photographer or something. Presumably I would then learn stuff that I'm interested in.
Bleh. Why don't all college degree programs mold you into the perfect candidate for a job, so you can pop right into one upon graduation?

I'm not even sure if I should be saying this, but, based on the books I read, The Quarterlife Crisis and Conquering Your Quarterlife Crisis, almost all college grads our age are going through discomforts like these. I recommend the books, but whether or not you get them, I think the important thing to remember is that we have to be uncomfortable, flop around, fail, try, try again, and at any and all cost gain life experience. Everything good is worth it's risk. Someday, we'll know and reach our goals, God willing, and we can be like those cheerful fortysomethings we see walking around with goofy grins. And it'll be good for a while, and then we'll have to face our midlife and end of life crises! C'est la vie, carpe diem, and all that! :D
