So the first semester of my senior year is coming to a close. Hello freak-out.
The temperature is falling, along with my sanity levels.
I've got my senior paper out of the way, but that doesn't mean I'm home free yet.
I need need to start looking for opportunities after graduation. i get the impression that the golf organization wants me back.... but how can I be so sure? And, while the traveling involved with it is fun... I'm not sure that I can see myself living in Atlanta. In fact, I'm not sure if I'm ready to just pick up and move away from my family for more than a couple of months. It is a crazy concept. How do you know that you will like what your future has in store for you? Sure, you can express what you want to be when you grow up. But it just might take you years to finally reach that position. Then what if you don't like it?
Then you might spend days thinking about the past 10 years of your life and how you worked your ass off to get into a position that you really don't like. All the sweat and tears at those crummy jobs to get to the one you thought was it all along... and oops, it's not. Where do you go from there?
All of these questions and scenarios continue to absolutely flood my brain. It's petrifying.
And how are you supposed to choose your career now? When five years from now, you don't know where you'll be living, whether or not you will be married, and (gasp!) if you have children!? How will that change things?
I guess the best advice is to just roll with the punches. But at least that senior paper is done...
