my so-called life

it’s been a little strange how i recently closed the book on probably the post significant relationship of my life, only to find myself having my horizons broaden in such a short period of time. bumping into old friends, meeting friends of friends and doing new, exciting things. and what’s a little messed up i guess is the fact that i should have been doing all of these things before but was too preocupied to realize it. i think i had lost myself for a while but now there are no borders, no boundaries or chains. just me, my dreams, and my life.

maybe it’s a part of this quarterlife crisis that i’ve been reading about. actually.. i think that is exactly the case. I’ve been feeling a little out of sorts lately, depressed a lot and struggling with this transition between school and the working world. and i think a more appropriate term would be the after-college syndrome or better yet, the transition to being a grown-up. all the tests, homeworks, projects were supposed to amount to something but it hardly feels like i’ve really accomplished anything at all. and maybe there are bigger dreams to fill than finding a good job. there has to be. i have yet to travel the world, sail the seven seas, be a pirate, or better yet, privateer =), ski in colorado or whistler, breathe the same air that the incan’s breathed from their city in the clouds, be gluttonous in countries like italy, france, spain, japan, thailand ….

so i guess i do have dreams and passions. i thought i lost them.

  1. hi mikey! i stumbled upon your website while i was looking at everyone’s AIM profile. i’m sorry to hear about your news but i’m glad that your head’s up high and that your eyes have been opened to new things.

    i relate to you in the fact that transitioning into the working world is very difficult. i believe it’s taken me about 6 months to physically, mentally, and emotionally adjust to work. many times i’ve questioned the meaning of life b/c once i started working, i felt like life became a boring routine: work, drive in traffic, eat dinner, sleep early and it all starts over again the next day.

    keep your head up high. jesus loves you :)
