Strange that I haven’t written much about my life post-LSU as thinking about it consumes roughly 80% of my non-school related mental activities. Oh wait, I think technically that is school related so maybe it’s a different percentage. Anyway, you get the drift. Graduation is HEAVY and it is weighing down both Dave and I and all of our possible-graduating friends. In fact, if I posted links to all of my friends blogs that I read who are seniors in college this year, almost all of them would have posts in the past week which concern issues related to college graduation. Woa. If everyone was thinking this intensely about other important issues I bet we could have world hunger solved in like a week.
Maybe not. But that’s still alot of thinking and deciding.
However, I refuse to stress too much about all of these decisions. You know what? I am 22 years old. I’ve got a long way to go before I can justly consider any life choice a “really bad decision”. As my wise mother says, “There are no wrong decisions here son. Just different paths which lead down the road.” So down the road we go.
Coming Soon (but not reall real soon):
Posts about computers, musical influences, and grandparents.
Somehow, I am not getting the same advice. I still get the “make good choices” lecture.
Your mother is absolutely right. no regrets, unless you end up in jail, then you should definitely regret that. but I don’t see that happening to you or my brother!
I once heard that the average person has 3 careers in their lifetime. I am solidly into my 2nd career but have been thinking about the 3rd for quite some time and imagine when the time is right (and my luck) it will fall into place. Just remember, you can never reclaim your youth; enjoy it while you can and don’t sweat the small stuff.
