I got growing up to do
This past May, I graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a BS degree in Biochemistry. What am I doing with that degree? Absolutely nothing. I moved to Baltimore to attend graduate school at the University of Maryland Baltimore. I was pursuing a MS degree in Molecular Medicine. Turns out, research is not for me. People have been telling me that I'm lucky to have found that out so early, but I don't feel lucky. Don't get me wrong, I am always thankful for having the opportunity to be free and do what I choose to do. I like Baltimore, but I feel like I've disappointed people. I'm working at University of Recreation and Fitness at UMB for now and trying to save my money. I definitely feel on my own in Baltimore. My family is 423 miles away and I live by myself, paying for rent and bills. But there's nothing to complain about. I'm meeting new people and exploring new places. I plan to take Anatomy & Physiology classes and apply to Radiation Therapy programs back in New England. I'm trying to organize my life... here I go.

days go on
I am trying to become a better person. I think every summer, I try to change, but end up, not necessarily failing, but postponing it. I mean, you haven't really failed if you've never given up, right? I don't know how excited I am to be almost out of college. Even living away from home, I'm not completely on my own. My parents still pay for most things and will always be there to catch me when I fall, but I want and need to experience relying only on myself.. having no safety net and free falling into the unknown and learning how to pick myself back up. I feel like I don't take enough risks, and isn't that the point to life? To live and learn and grow and enjoy.
Summer is quickly ending and my last year of college is rapidly approaching. Isn't it funny how when one thing ends, we always look for things to begin? Why can't we just enjoy the ride of nothingness? I think my personality/behavior is influenced just by watching other people. I think I have an abnormally good ability to see the whole picture and be about to read people. And I think just seeing everything all at once and how things connect and correlate made me realize how incredibly selfish I am for even thinking everything pertains to me. That's what I'm trying to change.
be who you are. do what you like.
