The past two months have been all about finishing up my last few weeks of college and staying on top of the piles of paperwork on my desk at work that never seem to get any smaller. I will be officially a college graduate in exactly 30 days and I couldn’t be more excited! However, right now I feel like I could use an extra twelve hours on any given day just to find a happy balance between it all. The funny thing about it all is that in a few weeks when all of the sudden my only priority will be to get up and go to work that I secretly feel like I am going to be bored. So it should be interesting to see how the first few months of summer turn out.
I have decided to stay in Chicago for another few months, most likely another year or so to figure out what I want to do next. The original plan was to move back to MN with J and find jobs there, but now that we aren’t together I am feeling a large need for more independence and going back to MN somehow feels like a step backwards. Needless to say I haven’t decided what the next step forward is, but I’m sure in the next few months I will be able to give you an update.
My dad called me the other night while I was out for a drink with a few friends after work and he says, “Geez Nicole the last few times I’ve called you, you’ve been out drinking! You can’t just continue to drink and not have a plan. Do you have a plan? You need a life plan!”
Next on my TO DO LIST : FIND A LIFE PLAN.
